As well as the RIB, and The Shogun to tow it, I've a couple of other toys.

My Zed built by me in my workshop.

MkIV Military canoe - currently on loan to the National maritime museum.

And the smaller Nashers SIB because they let me play with it too

Having slipped a disc last year I sold RAD the RS 700 (above). I Promised myself that as soon as I was better I would buy another one for the following winter- 2 Weeks ago I came across this instead.

She is sitting in my front drive and as soon as I've finished some GRP touch work on her we will launch and go for our first flight.

Previous owner had 22 knots from her and that was without the 3HP outboard that clips on the transom.

My little Toady - which I sold to buy my RIB




The above is a picture of her in her old home - we were the third owners - she was a Limited Edition Type 25 and a lot of fun ... but not as much as the RIB

I wonder which would a) depreciate quicker b) be used more in hours c) cost more to run per year. Hmmmm. Nice car though!!!
