I live in Dana point CA and I am looking at purchasing a rib. Growing up we had a sea ray with a regular inflatable zodiac and I always enjoyed it. I am looking at getting a RIB, but I am weary because almost every rib I view has a Leak of some extent and I don't know to what point these affect functionality, or just happen over time. I am currently looking at a 14' Nautica that has a "small leak" that they fill with a foot pump, and a 18' v570 that looks like has a large repair, that they say does not leak at all. Any recomendations?
Take your time and find the right boat. Most people don't sell a rib when it's in great shape, it's when it's starting to get run down, leak air, motor issues, etc that they post it for sale to upgrade. The picture you posted looks like several repairs and i would steer clear of it.
