How to Retube a boat
Ok guys I know this has been asked many a time before, but I have come up with the easiest solution going.

First buy a plain boring boat
Next Go to ebay Item 230103012314 and purchase this kit.
Next fit it as shown

There you go in Blue Peter Style, a bit of glue, string, and time you have your self a fantastic RIB!!!

RIBase
I can see the use of something like that-it'd be hard for kids to capsize a dinghy with one on.

That's not a cat it's a furry mooring buoy. It's ROUND!
