Revenger 27 on Ebay

Does anybody know this boat?

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Revenger-27-Ri...#ht_720wt_1165

It's not for me but for someone else ... sadly.

27 on Ebay

This one is a bit before my time but if you could get the hull number which is on the starboard side of the outter transom in reverse dymo then I could trace it through my records.

Revenger 27 on Ebay

I have found it in my records, this is an early 27 built in November 1995 for a local customer and was originally fitted with twin 200's. Since he sold it on, it was converted to a single outboard and I looked over the same boat in about 2002. The hull number should be 019 K.
It's good to see it looking in great condition.

Ahh someone from Revenger!!!

I don't know why but Revengers aren't very well represented on this site. Amazing boats - look stunning and with great hulls.

Just read an article in MBY about a few Revengers in Greece - with 2x300hp doing 74kts - lovely stuff!!!

And Fjordrafting broke their Scorpion - seem to be fine with the Revengers.

Revenger 27 on Ebay

Thanks Codprawn, I often have read your comments about Revengera and also feel you are one of only a few that dare to mention Revenger as a good RIB. Thank you very much for that.
I am pleased you liked the report in MBY and if you look at the latest Rib Int mag you will see my write-up.
If you want to contact me direct, the email address at Revenger comes directly to me.

Looks good,

but it is 14 years old! Must have had some wear and tear. A girl at twenty is not the same woman of 34.

That's because he thinks he's got one.

Does it follow then that a Pac22 is more grateful?

Not quite but it is a Revenger hull clone. I am sure the real Revengers are very special indeed!!!

If you mean "graceful" then yes , if "grateful" the Pac was only 29 years old.

Right thats this thread stuffed then, Nos have you got a magic editing wand at the moment?

This has been

a very useful rib for me. It brought me to focus more on Revengers which I did not know well before. Some of them I have seen for sale are outrageously expensive (probably over-priced), but it is a nice, sleek, serous vessel. Wonder how it compares to a Cougar R8 Sport (eh, Tony?)
