I'd agree, however.......
.........for that sort of money (actually no idea how much) you'd be mad to buy it. The same sort of cah would, I'm sure put you in something rather Gin & Tonic Bling !!!

I love Cabin RIBS But.......
That is just OTT, I would prefer to spend my cash on a gin palace , at least you would get a decent one for the same cash, instead of a half arsed RIB.

I have not seen a price for this model but it has been suggested on another site by Ginger Coastie that these boat are really good value for money.
They are used by rescue services, harbour masters and Americas Cup teams down under so you would hope they have screwed them together reasonably well.

Looks like Bembridge outboards have just taken a Ring and wacked a fancy console on it. Works well, I like!

Yeah thats right Paul, Leeway composites in Cowes. I was chatting to him the other day and he said they produce a walk in console so I'm assuming it is this as Leeway make the other consoles used by bembridge outboards.

If it has a Ring hull it should be bloody good!!! Not too sure about the looks but still most definitely a RIB and not just a hard boat with tubes!!! The prices DO look good value - would have been temted but a bit late now!!!
