@John, do you think new SIB section within the forum would be feasable?

Seriosly, this is the only forum I know of that includes a lot of good general info on sibs even though it's primary designation is RIB (which I am hoping to upgrade to in a couple of years time).
@John, do you think new SIB section within the forum would be feasable?
Danilo, I'll second that, a good idea, let's read what John has to say, maybe move all sib's posts to this new section so to have sibs and ribs threads. A much easier to find section per type of boat.

Happy Boating

Sib section is a great idea as I reckon they are going to becomeeven more popular with the cost of fuel rising as it is

a SIB section is a great idea, this is the only active forum i know of that dicusses SIB related issues. The information is very valuable, and having a 'sticky' would be a great quick reference point.

Go on John, you know you want to, give us a SIB section

I'm mucking about with the smaller Nashers SIB at the moment, and have some mods planned that I could post.

i think that a sib section would be a great idea also, many of us have sibs and many folks with sibs aspire to have ribs and some of us that had ribs have moved to sibs

all round i think it would be great

perhaps we could have a motorhome section as well!!!!!!!!

...another vote for the SIB section here!!

A few years a go I spent ages trying to find a forum devoted to SIB's and as far as I know there wasn't/isn't one. No matter how big or small a RIB I ever own I'll always have a SIB tucked away in the garage for certain occasions.

You know it makes sense John!!
