Have a look at this Pablo:

http://www.redbayboats.com/news/newb...uki%20Boat.htm

The tubes rest in the water while stationary, a very stable boat to move around in, they supply with 460 or 560mm tubes, to suit your activities. Rated for 225hp, seats four in comfort with space for kitting etc. A very sturdy hull designed for rough waters.

Are sure that's a Redbay? The 'slightly daft' factor appears to have been removed.

It looks remarkably like the one parked in my drive, so I think it must be.

It's surprising how much solace one can derive from that one little word...

...."almost"

Sorry for the delay – but we thought we’d better answer K&S’s query – better late than never!

There are several design improvements in the Eco XR24 including:

• A new double console with plenty of storage inside
• New seats
• New A-frame fairing
• The same excellent external hull shape, but with a re-designed internal structure to meet the Recreational Craft Directive
• The ability to carry a life raft on a rack or under a specially-designed double seat.

We’re very happy to discuss these with anyone who’s interested!
