I am thinking of purchasing a new small rib mainly for estuary use but also to occasionally use for waterskiing (needs to pull a 12 stone adult). Essentially it will be for family fun.
I want to tow it behind a standard family car and launch it on each use.
Would the Humber Assault 4.5m with a 50hp 4 stroke outboard be suitable? Another option is the Avon A400. Any other suggestions?
we used to ski behind our avon, which was a 4m with a yam 50hp 2 stroke. anything with 50hp + will be fine. Personally i'd go for a 4.5 as the extra length helps with carry gear or people, but ultimately either will be ok
