I've had an R8 for three years now, absolutely fantastic boat and Pete at Cougars couldn't be more helpful when we have had a couple of problems with the outboard.
We are selling it this year to hopefully get a newer one from them. Feel free to ask any questions or if you are in Hamble at all, let me know and you can have a look at ours.
been on one and riven one, good ride but i thought sounded very hollow!! They are based on honda 225 race series and im sure the tubes increase stability
