I have finally worked out how to make my photos smaller to be accepted.
Here are a couple of the new (well not so new now!185hrs on engine) Ribcraft 6.5. Still finding gear shift controls very iffy!!!

great looking boat,i think i must have taken delivery of my 585 about the same time as you? it would be interesting to know how much better the 6.5 is at handling the rough stuff
i will be trailering my boat down to southern brittany on monday ,thats as long as the Ferry is still operating !
this is the second boat that i have purchased from ribcraft and the quality is first class.run mine from plymouth to falmouth a couple of weeks ago and had to abondon the trip back due to severe weather, trailering the boat back instread through the cornish holiday traffic.

May come down from Exmouth to Dartmouth for Red Arrows depending on weather/seas.


Mark, good choice of boat. The 585 can handle some big seas
