Can anyone offer some RIBtastic fun?

Having recently aquired my powerboat level 2 I'm looking to gain experience and have some fun on RIBs. If you've got space and would like an extra pair of hands on board please give me a call.

I'm based in Sheffield but willing to travel to N Wales, N west & N East coasts or further for long trips.

I'm a non-smoker and available most days of the week.

Be at the gates of my marina on Saturday morning and I will let you move up to level 3 rib cleaning.

Thats not very nice Scotty,

I learnt how to sail by standing on the top of slipways asking to go out in boats at 11 yaers of age..... and eventualy made it a career for a while......

We are not all lucky ,and have a boat that we can use anytime,

Good on you Craig, its the way to do it, And you are willing to travel...

If you are ever in Dublin........ you would be most welcome...

Thanks Tim, nice to see someone puts social skills ahead of cheap jokes, Scotty could maybe learn a thing or two!

Easy Scotty

He's only posted twice and we are already insulting him. We reserve that treatment for Dirk and JonF and not the normal rif-raff (??)

Regards from a southerner

Actually Scotty I was still retaining my sense of humour, it appears to be you who has lost your sense of humour and resorted to personal insults!

Craig

Welcome to the forum and do not be put off by any remarks. They are a good bunch of guys only get carried away from time to time

As you are prepared to travel why don't you get down to the Ribnet meeting in May

Hi Craig

I beleive my boat is now busting at the seems for the rib conferenc but you should have no problem getting someone to take you out.

Please egnore the insults or respond back harder.

By the way you can always spot my threads as i can't spell!!!!

ps level 3 does not exsist anymore It is good to see some one trying to gain experiance with others rather than just going on the water on their own, I would like to see more of it.

Thanks guys, I'm down south the weekend of the RIBex so I'll try and get accross to that and I'll see if I can make any other dates.

Does anyone know any clubs around the North of England?

Alan · 11 April 2003, 15:08

RIBEX cancelled this year I'm afraid. Rib.net get together is May 10/11 in Plymouth. See NW Ribsters thread for like minded folk maybe a little closer to you. National RIB club is BIBOA, contact Jim Mackintosh on 01902 372975 for application form.

HTH,
Alan
