CARSON Interceptor RIBs

[BigMacBushcraft]

Course I will

[Barry Carson]

Great!

I see you picked 400 last time. Perhaps 950 next or maybe 1010?

[BigMacBushcraft]

I have a 30 something year old Carson 400 that you kindly helped me identify a while back. It is still holding air well and very usable.
When my lottery numbers come up I will definitely pop up to Buckie and place an order for one of its bigger siblings

[Barry Carson]

Yes I remember. Hope the 400 continues to give you good service, but not for too long, we'd love you to have one of her bigger siblings!!!

[Barry Carson]

For those that have been following progress on the new Carson Interceptor Class RIBs here's some 3D renders of the new wheelhouse version, the Carson 1010, being a tad over 10m plus engines and aft protection bar. Can also have inboard diesels and be supplied in both shorter and longer versions.

Primarily for professional offshore operations but would also make a great expedition cruiser, diver support, survey, patrol or seafari boat, etc. With outboards it falls within the 3,500kgs limit so can be legally towed by a decent 4x4. Thus the world is your ribster!

This hull is quite unique and sea trials in varied conditions have proven not only its great handling and speed abilities but also the inbuilt shock mitigation advantages of this hull concept.

Would this be one of yours? Seen in Avalon Catalina Island

[Barry Carson]

I don't think it is. Photo's not very clear although similar profile to some of mine. Have you any more info or photos?

[jwalker]

You've been kinda quiet of late, Barry. We could do with some more serious teckie stuff, Ribnet is getting a bit fluffy.

Sorry I didn’t realize it was so badly picture, just a quick snap as I went by. The bow looked very similar. It didn’t have inflatable tubes but looked like it had a thin foam collar.

Looks like an Axopar t-top

[Barry Carson]

It's definitely not a Carson and I agree with RickW. It may be an Axopar or similar. Have a gander on my website and you can compare with current and recent design projects. I also have a few other new models currently in design that will be added soon and also on my Facebook.

[Bigtalljv]

Ok, looks like you’re right. I’d say and Axopar 37. Big top and twins. I lighted up my picture but now I can’t attach it.

[Bigtalljv]

How about this picture.

Barrus branded axopar

Re The Ultimate Boat Company (UBC) & Probond Marine

Due to further developments since first reporting Carson's win in the High Court against Probond Marine/Colin MacAndrew/macandrc, Carson is compelled to update this matter:

The Ultimate Boat Company's Shane Mugan and Colin MacAndrew (also of Probond) have, interalia, publicly denigrated Carson RIB designs and made knowingly false allegations and claims that are considered defamatory and harassing against Carson personally. The post below is a condensed account. For a more in depth report please go to our website and see the PDF attached.

CARSON'S WIN IN HIGH COURT AGAINST PROBOND MARINE LTD. (MD Colin James MacAndrew, now at The Ultimate Boat Co., Glasgow & IOM)


Intellectual Property & Enterprise Court strikes out Probond Marine’s case: 30 June 2020.


1 year on Probond still not paid damages/costs awarded to Carson.
Valuable assets hidden & others claimed deliberately destroyed by MacAndrew/Probond deny creditors & Carson their rightful monies.
Destructive role played by Shane Mugan (Owner/Director of The Ultimate Boat Company)


Following further malicious false claims and fake news posted by Colin MacAndrew & Shane Mugan, both of The Ultimate Boat Company (UBC), Glasgow & Isle of Man, Carson has been compelled to update this statement of facts in more detail on documented evidence.


* Over two years in the High Court.
* Disputed matters before the Court: Breach of Contract * Carson Interceptor RIB Designs * IP Rights * Royalties * Commissions * Other Matters
* Damages & costs awarded to Barry Carson (Carson RIBs).
* Probond’s case struck out in its entirety after failing to provide evidence and attend trial.
* Probond held in Breach of Contract and also High Court Orders before trial with further breaches committed after trial.
* No findings of wrongdoing by Carson contrary to MacAndrew’s publicly repeated allegations.
* Colin James MacAndrew, MD of Probond Marine Ltd. has now ceased trading.
* Shane Michael Mugan, previously involved with Probond and now
Owner/Director of newly formed The Ultimate Boat Company (UBC), played an instrumental role and was root cause of the dispute that led to the High Court.
* Dispute began immediately Mugan got involved with Probond. MacAndrew appointed Mugan as mouthpiece. With no prospect of winning the case MacAndrew began winding-up Probond and joined with Mugan in starting The Ultimate Boat Company, initially in the same premises in Cullen, Scotland.
* Damages & costs awarded to Carson remain unpaid.
* With no prospect of winning and following trial & judgment against him MacAndrew proceeded to hide assets, destroy and send to landfill various high value production moulds, stock & new demonstrator boats thus avoid paying Carson’s damages with costs and Probond’s numerous other creditors.
* Carson’s claim exceeds £640k. Numerous other creditors are also left out of pocket by hundreds of thousands of Pounds.
* MacAndrew’s actions are considered a deliberate and vindictive process to avoid his legal and moral obligations to Carson, his staff, suppliers, service providers and many other creditors.
* MacAndrew now refers to himself as "Advisor to the Board" of UBC in Clydesdale, Glasgow. Mugan and his wife are the Owners Directors of UBC. Mugan also describes himself as “Growth Advisory Board Member”. Some of Mugan’s other interests include Exo Technoligies, TYNC Design, Hibernia Capital, Novo Altum and Emeritus, all based on the IOM the same as UBC’s registered office.
* 6 months after losing his case MacAndrew and or others, on Christmas Eve and morning 2020, posted numerous personal insults, defamatory comments and allegations knowing them to be all completely fabricated and false against Carson’s boat designs and personal good character and reputation.
* Failing to achieve his aims, on New Year’s Eve MacAndrew emailed Carson threatening to post more lies if his demands were not met, inter alia, that Carson remove all legitimate reporting regarding this court case and its outcome. Unlike MacAndrew’s allegations and posts all material posted by Carson is factual and fully supported with documented evidence.
* Mugan had previously posted some of the same as MacAndrew on UBC’s Facebook (see our website). This was cut and pasted by MacAndrew proving further collusion between them to compulsively lie about these matters and their concerted effort to harm Carson’s good name.
* Additionally, Mugan has emailed Carson directly adding further insults and more fabricated claims regarding same.
* Police and other authorities are informed and have written to MacAndrew advising his actions are unlawful, to seek legal advice and warning him he may face future prosecution.
* Carson is taking legal advice and considering further action against MacAndrew and Mugan of UBC.
* All matters are ongoing and further updates will be posted.
