Verdict
The Master 775 is a large-capacity RIB with a fishing-focused layout, strong engine potential, and practical offshore credentials. It suits active day boating and angling more than overnight cruising, with comfort limited by the lack of cabin/berth data in the available listings.
Pros
- +16-person capacity is unusually high for a 7.7 m RIB
- +Wide 3.1 m beam supports stable deck space
- +Up to 402 hp max power gives strong performance potential
- +Fishing layout includes large cockpit and storage/livewell features
- +CE Category C and 6 compartments support offshore use
Cons
- −No confirmed cabins, berths, or bathrooms for overnight stays
- −Comfort features are basic compared with cabin RIBs
- −High-capacity layout can feel crowded with a full crew
- −Actual performance depends heavily on engine choice and load
The Master 775 is a 7.70 m RIB, or 8.10 m with the aft platform, with a 3.10 m beam and a reported maximum of 16 people. Public specs describe it as a fishing-oriented model with a large cockpit, six compartments, and CE Category C certification, which points to a practical offshore-minded design rather than a luxury cruising package.[1][2][11][12]
On the water, the hull is set up for strong performance potential: the model is rated up to 402 hp in mono-engine XXL or twin-engine XL configurations, and published trials and listings indicate lively cruising and top-end capability when properly powered.[1][2][6][8][10] With that said, handling will vary a lot by engine setup, fuel load, and how many passengers are aboard, since this boat is designed to carry a large group.[1][2]
Comfort and livability are functional rather than plush. The verified listing data does not confirm cabins, berths, bathrooms, or a true overnight interior, so this should be treated primarily as a day boat or fishing platform; however, reported amenities such as air conditioning and Wi‑Fi improve usability if fitted on the specific boat offered.
In value terms, the Master 775 is attractive for buyers who want a versatile, high-capacity RIB with serious deck space and strong power options. It is less compelling if the priority is cruising comfort or family cabin use, but for entertaining, fishing, and active coastal trips it offers a well-balanced package.
