Boat looks great went up to the new ribquest site rescently,dont know much about the old outfit, but the attention to detail from the new owner was up there with the best. nice set up.
The tow ring on top of the A frame is a nice touch, did you spec that or is it standard fitment?
A frame is standard chewy not that i,l be towing ringo,s as such but its there if needed... as far as the cables under deck i prefer them there out of the way

only jealous, wish i had one on ours. Though with my dad's utilitarian angle on boats, i was lucky to get the gps....though he cant read it!! even with glasses!!
I spent some time talking to South Yorks Police who have just got a 6.4m Ribquest with the same console but four single pods behind.
After giving a good look over its a substantial rib that looks very well built ...... to a Ribcraft type standard.
How it fares after a few years of use is always the test but we did try it alongside a 6.2m Avon Searider with twin 60hp and the Ribquest was way behind when it was more than a couple of metres swell!

I thought the new owners might be able to turn out a decent craft. Very tidy workshop pics
Did the makers ofer the photos or did you do them yourself. I think that a photo album from polishing the mould to the finished boat rolling out of the door should be presented with every new rib.
it would be good to know how it stands up to the abuse
