Cheapie Rib wanted 5mtr ish?

Hi,

New member here, a mate and I are looking for a Rib of approx 5mtr.....

We have a 2T 70hp Evinrude and very good trailer and have a budget of approx £1500 so not expecting miracles!

Anyone got anything?

Thanks

You should get an old Searider 5.4 (SR5.4) for that money, it might need some work doing though?
Have you looked on Boatsandoutboards?

A bit smaller than you wanted and the 70hp will be a tad big, cheap though.

Something very definantly NOT like that one, the tubes leak and the hull has a big crack down the side.

Tim M on here usually has something kicking around.

Nah, did you speak to Tim M, he has stiff kicking around all the time and would probably deliver it for you.
He delivered my SR4 from the IOW to North Yorkshire for a very reasonable fee!
