Maybe a farm yard is not the natural home of a RIB but I usually do not have a camera with me when the boat is behind the car!

Is this the longest thread on RIBnet yet?

I'll have a few pictures of my new boat after the weekend to post here so keep your eyes peeled!

We just need Lurcher to add his latest aquisition now!

Trailer looks a bit big for the boat - having said that the security of a triple axle trailer is very nice to have.

How well does the new Disco tow it?

Bloody hell my Disco 1 will do that - and I get about 26mpg towing - more than when I am not!!!

I suspect the D3 is a lot more comfortable ON the road though - I am trying to decide between that and a RR Sport.

I've never driven it yet, but it seems a bit tight inside, maybe it was the trim combination that just made it look smaller ?

It's realy BIG.
I saw it on Sake's yellow Revenger and that looked great, but now on Seaquel's Seaquel it's enormous.
Same engine changed ownership.
