RIBase
Wanted - jockey Console

All, my local Sea Scout group have been donated an Avon 3.2 rib.
They would like to fit a small two person steering console and use it as a safety boat.
Anyone got anything suitable they are either able to donate, or not looking for much money for.
(I know all charities find it tough but they are currently trying to raise £80k to fix a severe foreshore erosion issue threatening their scout hut! So don’t have much at all to be able to keep boating) many thanks

I don’t have anything to offer, but for a 3.2m rib I wouldn’t rule out tiller steer. More space in the boat, less weight (better fuel consumption, and easier to handle on land), close to helm to pull start is more practical, room for cpr if needed,
