Humber at RIBEX

A very big thank you to all our customers who took the time to come over to our stand on the pontoons at RIBEX.
This years Ribex was a resounding success for Humber with the launch of our new Sportspro range, on show were 3 new vessels a pair of 8m boats one black and racy and one a white smooth offfshore cruising option with teak decking also shown in the 10m version. The vessels were put through their paces and the resulting independent test reports and evaluations are due for world-wide publication in the coming weeks. Initial feed back has been impressive to say the least with the 10m boat surpassing target speeds over time trials.

Really loved those boats when i saw them in the rib mag. The only bit i felt let it down was the area behined the back seats. It looks like the designer didn't really know what to put there....so its just kind of an 'area' of nothing in front of the motor. Better on the white one with a bit of fake teak stuck to it, but it looks clumsy compared to the rest of the boat which is really striking.

I'd probably put up with it tho!
