RIBase
Redbay Stormforce 6.5 and 650 s

Can anyone explain the difference between the Stormforce 650 and Stormforce 6.5 or are they same boat with different names.

They are not identical but very similar, certainly within the water. The resident redbay expert will be here soon... ... But in the meantime I *think* I recall the big difference being the decks?

If I remember correctly the 650 is a standardised version of the 6.5 - outboard powered, moulded deck, 4 x jockey seats, double console.

Like Poly says though, our in house Redbay correspondent will be along shortly with the full story.
