Nice LongJohn glad you got my little SIB getting some air it landed so hard the engine popped up into shallow water mode

Hmmm I managed to loose the video footage of the tow back so glad you had some

Salvage cost well it will be worth a lot more when it is fixed. It needs a new CD unit only one of the spark plugs is firing which the cost is a 1/4 of the engines value

Do you boys have your SIBS insured?

I have a Rib that is insured, then I have a sib and then I have an Avon Redcrest with a 3.5 hp engine.

I am concerned more about the liability part.

Interested to hear your thoughts.

Hi, good point, no mine is not insured but I am looking into a prop guard for it.

I'll ring my insurance company next week to ask about public liability insurance. I wonder if I'm covered through my rib insurance?

Get the redcrest added to the RIB policy as its tender, insure the SIB with craftinsure ..cheap as chips...

Bombards insured with them, RIB with Porthcawl, SR4..I need to sort out

Propguard ????? what for ...? evil things ....the Y may be a little big to count as tender - but they may do it ... with your fleet there is scope to look at a trade policy ?....

I think it a buyers market with marine insurance Whisper and I both needed insurance for the.Alderney trip last year as my then current insurance wouldn't cover the trip. Whisper contacted Craftinsure and said if we both moved to him under separate policies will he do a deal and he did. Although on a smaller scale with SIBS there is always a deal to be had

Great Idea Thanks.

But I am thinking of taking my sons Optimist and either my Rover or Readcrest to France this summer and started to think about insurance etc, I doubt it would be covered as Rib Tender if it is 800 miles away from the Rib

What sort of paperwork do you need to drive a tender in France?
