Bye Bye Osprey
Yes I have sold me RIB. No plans for the foreseable future to replace it.
Sold to a new RibNet member Chris1573. I wish you all the very best with her mate, and that she gives you and your family the same fun that we have had. 
I still have me drysuit, so if anyone needs a crew then let me know 
Cheers
Martin

Hi Martin, sorry to hear about the old gal being sold. I've had to put mine up for sale as well on ebay here
I don't know what they are going to do in July ? Dave emailed me before Xmas to say he was selling his boat
so they will need a few new Midland Ribbers.
