My New RIB (Seabright 430RH)

I just got my RIB last weekend. Took it out twice in the ocean and it's great! First time owning one of these. Drove Seadoo's, fiberglass, aluminum and jet boats before.

It handled the waves like a champ in the ocean here 1 meter or so swells.

40hp has enough power for me but always would like more haha.

Having trouble now finding fishing rod holders to go on the light bar, does anyone have a good source for them?

Nice Rib.

See it's got pressure release valves, hull guard, I also like the way the A-frame support is embedded in the transom, etc.

Regards fishing rod holders, something like this might work. Depends on your A-frame tube diameter. Whatever you get, just make sure it's stainless 316. You can add some 3M foam tape to the inside of the adjustable brackets to stop them marking the A-frame.
