RIB SeaSafari in Lanzarote

This is the latest addition to the Parker seasafari ribs operating worldwide

The rib in Lanzarote known as WAVERIDER is a Parker 1000 Baltic fitted with twin Mercury Verado 300

It will be interesting to see who from RibNet will first have an opportunity to take a ride.

Waverider Sea Safari Lanzarote

Thanks for linking to the video Andre, the rib is out of this world mate,,, just got hold of 2 GoPro's so the new videos are spot on, i will post some when they are ready but for now here is the last one we shot. Hi Zippy, we couldnt have got waverider ready in time for the winter season but hey the summers just round the corner and we have already had such a fantastic reaction that with a little bit of luck we can make up for missing this winter. Take a look at the new video and see what you think, we really like hearing peoples reactions and opinions.

Kind regards

Just come on down to Poole if you fancy a spin on big fast Parker...

Poole Sea Safari : Poole Bournemouth Jurasic RIB Boat Tour

You may even find yourself being driven by a RIBnetter....

Then you can compare the two - black v yellow

Hi Lee

I don't think you will have any problems in finding Waverider just make your way to Puerto Calero. I spent a weekend there in January during the handover and I am now planning to go back in March. A very nice place indeed.

Both ribs will give you a fantastic ride but the only difference is that on the yellow one you will most probably just wear a T shirt and shorts and on the black/grey one something more appropriate for our weather conditions

Peter, thanks for the offer!

Afraid not, I did see the town where he is, but only ventured out of Playa Blanca once in the week so never had the chance. Gutted really, but it seems the kids activities take over once you arrive! Next time definitely. Of to Majorca for 2 weeks soon, anyone there with a Parker?
I did see a monster Parker in Cowes last week. An orange one with 2 x Verado's on it. Not sure of it was local or visiting.

As we all know from the press David Cameron has just spent a relaxing holiday on the island of Lanzarote. During his stay he took to ribbing and yes on the Parker 1000 Baltic known as "Waverider" .
