Delta rib

Hi
I am looking at a 2002 delta rib 5.5m in very good condition and 120 hrs. Regularly serviced and been stored inside under cover. Tubes very good. Original orange hull and blue tubes. It has Yamaha 100hp 4 stroke.
It has a pair of single jockeys.
Does anyone know how much I should pay for this?
Thanks

Old Yammie F100 is a lardy bit of kit at 164kg. I've read the carbs on these mid-sized 4-strokes are quite picky regards fuel. Best to disconnect fuel supply after a run and open choke until it stops.

Can't fault the Delta. Deep V hull, very capable boats. If tube condition is as you say, then easily £7k.

Worth adding to the mix...

I've got an F100 on my Avon. They have auto chokes. I had a blocked fuel line to one carb when I first had the boat, but run it for two seasons now and it has been good. I have never disconnected the fuel line A great engine.
