A friend of mine has at last decided to turn in his jetski and join us in the Rib world. He has 15k to spend on something for pleasure, which i guess will need a good turn of speed.... The waters around Guernsey can be a little nasty on occasions, so nothing too small.
Thanks for you opinions in advance..

Could go for a second-hand Zodiac Open Pro 550 (18ft) with a Yamaha 100. Comfort and safety. See www.gliddonmarine.com

Quality bit of kit.

They have a couple of options for sale.
