Awesome hull - you won't be dissapointed! I was stunned when I got mine on the water! The 60hp / 4.8 seems to be a good combination. Enjoy.

Hi Matt,
Still running it in only done 2hrs so far so the engine is still tight but will be out on sunday if weather is good & also picking up a RIB for a mate on friday so i expect he will be out too. Drop me a line if your down & we can swing the lantern & sing sea shantys whilst catching some air off portland bill. Speek soon.
Mike.

Hi Matt,
No problem mate as it was blowing a strong cold easterly down here & going around at 3000rpm running in is no fun when its like that so went to Gun Wharf Quay in Pompy instead, lot of ribs out there wish id towed mine there instead of taking the wife shopping, would have worked out cheeper & no headache afterwards.....catch up later next time your around.
Regards Mike.

Im delighted with it. Well done Ribcraft.

Hi Mike,

I am just looking at one of these myself and wondered what you meant by having the jockeys and console trimmed down? Was this to lower their height/weight?

Do you still have the boat? Pleased with it?

Thanks

Chris
