Choppy - without beating about the bush - how much are you paying CIF?

Very funny - nobody was injured!!!

As to travelling on the tubes you must be wimps - just spent 5 hrs having fun on my LITTLE toy - great fun and very bouncy today!!! Just wish I had found it for sale sooner - used only 7 litres of petrol in 5hrs - not bad considering I was often doing 25mph!!!

Testing out my new camera today - Pentax WP as in waterproof - not just splashproof!!!

we need to get together for a sib race, your 3.1 against my 3.4, 4 stoke against yam 2stroke, i need to borrow a friends gps so i can see how fast mine goes, it feels very fast but not sure on how many mph it is.

but

as for sitting on the tubes i find i get a sore arse after a while, have to sit on the floor a bit and move around a bit, maybe not as much padding as yours or i have mine pumped up more

i spend a lot of time on it when fishing with my young son as can drift everywhere and is quite relaxing i must admit.

but might have to sell it to pay for a days fuel on this rib

Don't have a pressure guage so just pump them up by feel. Everyone says and air floor is great and it may make life easier but wooden boards make for a much better boat - mine is only rated to 9hp with airmat floor - 15hp with boards!!!

Being out on a boat this size quite a long way from land definitely teaches you how to read the sea - great practice!!!
