What is this?
A friend is looking at buying this and is asking me for help but not a clue what rib it is?!

Looks pretty nice, good bow rise, lots of storage, console, radar arch (minus radar) nice engine and good price!

The only down sides are the camo & the trailer!

But what do people think?

2007 4.8m Rib with 50hp Tohatsu Engine - BARGAIN TO CLEAR | eBay

Are you sure the pictures aren't just close-ups of a 1970's Action Man boat?

Interesting looking thing, got to be worth 4 grand of anybody's money. What are the pads for on top of the tubes towards the stern?

Think they may be small paddle holders. I had mini paddles on my thundercat that looked as if they'd fit in there
