Looks like some genius has grafted a microplus top half onto a rib - it even has the microplus splash well at the stern...

The question is...

Why??!

RIBase
That's a really odd bag of poo. It's not a Microplus top half though-looks like Shetland or a homebuild that used Shetland windows. The rib bow looks like a Chinook? I don't think it's a searider-the V isn't deep enough and the bow has no chines.

Kinda a good idea if it wasn't so hideous!
