New for 2026, and redesigned with EVA foram seat, additional handles, updated rubstrake and new Mercury logos.
The Mercury 340 Ocean Runner Hypalon (CSM) Rigid Inflatable Boat (RIB) is built for boaters who want a capable standalone vessel or a serious tender for larger yachts. With its flat inner floor and integrated bow step/storage locker, the 340 Ocean Runner provides more usable deck space and comfort than lighter open-floor models. Heavier and more robust than the Dynamic series, this model is engineered for stability, practicality, and strength — making it the perfect choice for owners who demand more from their RIB.
The Ocean Runner series has been trusted in Australia for over 15 years by sailing clubs, sporting facilities, and Navy cadet programs thanks to its rugged fibreglass deep-V hull, commercial-grade Hypalon tubes, and excellent carrying capacity. Seating up to 5 adults with a payload of 515 kg and rated for outboards up to 25 hp, the Mercury 340 Ocean Runner offers outstanding performance for both leisure and training use.

Why Choose the Ocean Runner Hypalon?
The Mercury Ocean Runner range is designed for serious boating. Unlike the lighter Dynamic series, which features an open single V-hull, the Ocean Runner provides a flat inner deck and bow storage locker — creating more comfort, space, and utility. Its heavier build and higher horsepower rating make it ideal for yacht owners, clubs, and training programs that need a reliable, durable craft. With Hypalon (CSM) tubes offering unmatched resistance to UV and wear, the 340 Ocean Runner is built to handle Australia’s toughest marine conditions for years to come.
