My new RIB thanks RIBNET

My new RIB arrived today..... Redbay 6.5 sourced and bought via rib net.
Love it!!!
Just want to use the forum to thank the vendor, what a brilliant transaction! Could not have been smoother........ You here so many horror stories and scam stories of boat sales, this was the total opposite!
Boat born in NI..... Lived here for years, a visit to Hampshire, now back in NI
Has can be seen from pics, family love it, the wings on the jockeys are absolute fantastic for the children.
All I need now is a little more fine weather.... Petrol prices to drop (a lot)...... And time off to go boating!
Thanks rib net

Did we see that tied up in the marina at Dun Loaghaire when we did the Ireland trip, if not, it has a twin. I'd never forget those green tubes.

Nice one Mr. B. Looks like you've had her out on the "Swirly" already. She must be a flyer with that lump on. What is that modification on the A-frame? It looks a bit like a Aux mount but hard to tell the height from that angle...?

The wings are good for small kids. Kids still tend to suffer in waves though, as they have nothing to put their feet on. Some on here have fitted small folding footrests on the pod sides to help with this.

Best of luck with her!
