I thought that-it's quite a clean break.

Thats what the Doc said when he looked at the X Ray of my arm
The evidence is all supposition, but boat looks right and it was a large unlit steel bouy of 20 tonnes

Mmm, I wondered if it was 'that' Rib that hit a bouy.
That means its been sitting about for quite some time.
Nasher.

There are a couple of posts here alluding to the fact that this may be the wreck of Kieron French's RIB.
I doubt it.
Wrong layout, and wrong pattern of damage.
All IMvHO of course.

You mean there are other Geminis that have hit big mooring bouys which the advertiser did point out.
There was another that someone parked in the carpark at Hamble Point. I think the driver fell out when the rib hit the sand bank to the enterance. Rib carried on up the rock bank through the fence and landed in the carpark. Security Guard turned the engine off

Reading the questions on the description, the damage has been cut away to start repairing it.

It's not the one that went up the beach at HPM. It was a 6.5m and I think repaired and went back into service.
I've got a customer interested in buying a good Gemini 730 or 850 Waverider. Anybody know of any good (very good) ones for sale?
