BananaShark are number 1!

In the June issue (I know it's only May!) of Sports Boat and Rib the BananaShark 770 (they called it a 77 though) was voted top of the Top 5 Ribs above Pascoe, Revenger, RIB-X and Sorcerer - we're obviously very happy and modestly not in the slightest bit suprised!

770 Bananashark with 2x2 jockeyseats, nice console and a rear sofa. In little more traditional style like Revenger and Scorpion. Then the boat is number 1 for me 2.

All know that the hull is very nice....

All of them!

Joakim - I realise some people would prefer jockey seats, but have you tried our seating position with a foot throttle? It really is like driving a sports car and just as much fun, you also have more of a feeling of sitting "IN" the boat rather than "ON" it, therefore giving one a feeling of greater security.

We can offer 2 more seats if you sacrifice the floor locker which is mainly used for skis, fenders, ropes etc, but there is still the anchor locker, the foredeck locker which is nearly 6 feet long, and the option of the 2 lockers on the aft deck, so you won't be short of storage space!

Nice one Cooks

You and Kitten deserve the recognition.

Great design ideas, nice premises, super-looking boats and real experience.

Hmmm...I like the boat very much.But. What i mean is if you build a classic rib with your hull and in your style, you have both sportboat costumers and rib costumers. Build it with only 2 jockeyseats and a sofa in the rear. And you have the scorpion, revenger costumers to. You have the hull and the tubes....

Well done Cookie, your boats look absolutly fantastic....

Thank you for the kind comments everyone - the diesel boat will be totally finished soon - we were at the Devon County show for 3 days last week and we had a lot of interest - do you think it might have a connection between Diesels and farmers

There were also a few people from the Exe, and they have quite shallow water up there, so a jet drive would be a big advantage!
