Southampton Boat Show
I know a few of us have been or going to the Boatshow so any personal highlights?
Enjoyed our visit as usual and catch up with some of the regular exhibitors. A few less stands again this year, particularly from the British rib manufacturers, and general chandlers where you always saw something you didn’t know you wanted but couldn’t resist! Plenty of hard hull sports boats represented again, which were of interest to us, as we changed from rib to a sports boat early this year.
Picked up some electronic goodies to add over winter to our new boat and another hp dropstitched inflatable body board from Two Bare Feet to add to the pair we already have.
Quite interested to see in the fresh the new Ribcraft R350 which looks pretty snazzy. Bit of a jet ski feel but a mini deep V rib with slide on tubes. Not cheap by any means at £24,000 with a Suzuki 40 but a £500 deposit will secure you a show deal at just under £20,000 with a Spring 2025 delivery….nice but still too pricy for me.
