RIB Charter in Falmouth / Mylor

Hey folks,

Due to issues with my RIB (hint... watch out for yet another rebuild thread !) I need to find a RIB (5.5 - 7m ish) for charter in Falmouth / Mylor for Sunday 29th June but I'm not having much luck.... It's the start of the bluQube 1000 mile solo yacht race and I need a RIB as a support boat for our racing yacht and as a photo boat.

I've tried the wonderful world of Google but the nearest I've got is Plymouth... anyone know if there's anyone closer ?

Cheers,
Mark

What happened to the RIB operation just off the square at Market Street who had a small hut near to the boat trip operators. Also the ORCA RIB is massive but they must have another idea or boat Cheers Ian

ORCAS as follows :-Orca Sea Safaris
2 Ferry Cottages
Feock
Truro
TR3 6QJ
Tel: 01872 861 910
Fax: 01872 863 355

They have a massive RIB for whale watching so am sure they could help find someone

How 'bout a brand new 7m Vmax wearing a 250 Etec? Are you talking bareboat or Skippered? I live in Falmouth.

They'll want big money to take Orca off of her trip duties this time of year. With all the dolphin 'action' going on here at present, she'll be chocker.

The other crew I know are in St Ives and will trailer it to Falmouth, which is a Ribeye 785
