I've only been on this forum for a few weeks,im sure ribs can tag along.
What we need is a long term forum member to get a list of names going & maybe some dates thrown down & take it from there,if we could do it for charity (rnli)all the better :-)could anyone arrange any of this.

The boats are starting to get bigger and bigger The problem with combining sibs and ribs... is that ribs will do it in 25% of the time a sib will...

Yeah true the ribs are quicker but they can just back off the throttle a bit surely.

Maybe there could be ribs of upto a certain size of boat and Engine say max of 4m and engine no larger than 30hp
Just to help billy out

Maybe a vote is needed from sibers only

As I asked if I could join in in the rib pool Cruise last weekend an they said no prob but in the end I didn't end up going

So I'll be the first to vote
Yes to billy
