Verdict
A well-regarded Italian RIB with strong deck space, solid offshore credentials and lively performance when properly powered. It is best suited to day boating and social use rather than overnight cruising, with comfort limited by the absence of true cabin accommodation.
Pros
- +Large open deck for its length
- +Good stability and buoyancy from 62 cm tubes
- +Wide engine range up to 300 hp
- +Strong day-boat practicality and payload capacity
Cons
- −No real cabin or overnight comfort
- −Limited weather protection for extended cruising
- −High performance depends on larger engine fit
- −Age of 2003 examples can mean variable condition
The Joker Boat Clubman 24 is a classic Italian RIB design with a 7.46 m hull, 2.99 m beam, 62 cm tubes and a self-draining fiberglass structure. Its proportions and layout make it a purpose-built day boat: open, spacious and focused on social use rather than enclosed accommodation. The model’s published maximum capacity is high, but that should be read as a legal ceiling rather than a comfortable cruising number.
On the water, the Clubman 24 is known as a capable and responsive semi-rigid with handling that benefits from its broad beam and substantial tube volume. With recommended power in the 200 to 300 hp range, it should deliver strong acceleration and confident cruising, especially offshore or in choppy coastal conditions. The trade-off is that lighter engines will make it more economical but less lively.
Comfort is good for day trips, with generous open space and practical fuel and water capacities, but it is not a true cabin yacht and offers no meaningful overnight livability. For a 2003 example, overall value depends heavily on maintenance, engine hours and upholstery condition; a well-kept boat remains attractive, while neglected examples can be costly to bring back up to standard.
