On the basis there are at least 49 other RIB manufacturers ............. that makes us the only original hull design that hasn't been copied from something else!!

I've just got back from hols, so I would like to now publically thank Lee for the boat he has made for us.
Very nice, anyone still unsure about buy from Leeway should follow my example and do the same.
We hope to have it on the water next week so We'll post some pics. As for your price Lee, now we've got ours you can put your prices up.
It a great product, and sure people who have looked it to the market will still buy it for more money.
It's not like your sell a rubbish boat, so I don't see no need for to feel that you need to discount it so much, you've made a name for yourself now!!! So why not enjoy some of the rewards that come with a 'Brand' name.
Thanks Again, All the best with the future.

Lee- good looking boat.Like the 8.3. Next year will probably change my hull and tubes- and wil look very carefully at the 8.3. Could I sling my 2*250's on the back??? and would need at least 500 liter tank.

I like boats. Ribs like Pascoe's SR10 are a work of art.

Surely having a bbq in a RIB is a hazardous operation?
