Gotchi'll be here in a minute. He's probably owned 3 or 4 of them.

Never been on one but apparently they behave well and are capable ribs for their size...

Osprey 5.15

Hi, we have owned a 5.15 for several years now, perfect for our needs, easy to launch/recover, plenty fast enough with a Mariner 60hp ptt, copes with lumpy weather ok, quite beamy, so plenty of space for a rib of its size. The discription on E-bay seems to discribe the rib very well, good choice I would say, and a good price, hope your Pal enjoys his, as much as we are enjoying ours, will post some pic's when I get time !!
