'''Dive boat''' is a type of [[boat]] specifically designed and equipped to facilitate [[scuba diving]] activities. Dive boats can vary in size and functionality, ranging from small open boats (also known as ''[[Rigid-hulled inflatable boat|RIBs]]'') to larger, fully equipped vessels capable of supporting extended [[diving expedition]]s.

== Types of Dive Boats ==

There are several types of dive boats, each with its own unique features and uses in the world of scuba diving.

=== Rigid-Hulled Inflatable Boats (RIBs) ===

[[Rigid-hulled inflatable boat|Rigid-hulled inflatable boats (RIBs)]] are small, fast, and highly maneuverable, making them ideal for short trips to nearby dive sites. They are typically open, without a cabin or berths, and can carry a small number of divers.

=== Day Boats ===

Day boats are larger than RIBs and are designed for longer trips. They usually have a cabin, a toilet, and facilities for preparing food. Day boats can carry more divers and equipment than RIBs.

=== Liveaboard Boats ===

[[Liveaboard]] boats are the largest type of dive boat. They are equipped with sleeping quarters, a kitchen, and other amenities, allowing divers to stay on board for several days or even weeks at a time. Liveaboards are used for long-distance diving expeditions to remote locations.

== Features of Dive Boats ==

Dive boats are equipped with various features to support scuba diving activities. These include:

* '''Dive platforms:''' A dive platform at the stern of the boat allows divers to easily enter and exit the water.
* '''Equipment storage:''' Dive boats have storage areas for [[scuba gear]], including tanks, weights, and personal equipment.
* '''Safety equipment:''' All dive boats carry safety equipment such as [[oxygen]] kits, [[first aid kit]]s, and [[life raft]]s.

== Safety on Dive Boats ==

Safety is a paramount concern on dive boats. Operators must ensure that all safety equipment is in good working order and that all divers on board are aware of safety procedures. This includes briefing divers on the location and use of safety equipment, as well as procedures for entering and exiting the water.
