Hello,
My name is Gerard and I live in the north of the Netherlands (grouw)
I have for some time been looking for a ribeye.
A ribeye 600 Playtime or Ribeye 650 Sport.
My budget is around 17,000 euros. (14500 a 15000 pounds)
If anyone knows a boat for me, would that person send me the link to the ad?
Thanks in advance

Hi Gerard. Why just Ribeye? There are other leisure orientated ribs.

Searching for RibEye 650S 2003-2005
Hello all, since I saw and try RibEye 650S and I was really keen and for me this is most beautiful design of RIB I've ever seen, boat is really unique and just what I need.
So I'm searching for one 2003-2005 in good condition, Yamaha 150HP 4 stroke, regularly serviced, with trailer, up to £16,000! Anybody have for sale!?

It's the same question to any Newb whom has narrowed their search criteria down to one brand. Interestingly, this does often happen to be Ribeye.
There are a plenty of quality British Rib builders out there to choose from inc. Ribeye.

The one thing Ribeye has that no one else does is a good family layout coupled with good marketing, stick the other half in front of a pretty Ribeye or a functional Ribcraft and see which they prefer, I know what mine would go for - plus you rarely hear of problems with them.

They've certainly given you a good "marketing".

Yup, had two of their made boats, but don't just take my word for it, there's hundreds of them round where I am so they're doing something right.

Some of the guys here have questions why RibEye, some reasons I'm already mentioned, but from my point of view compering with others English RIB's one up is closed stern and compering with Ribtec 655 what is very similar, unfortunately Ribtec has very ugly back bench what is in RibEye really nice and very good incorporated with stern. So on moste of these RIB's hull is very similar and very good when you add all other details what have RibEye 650S for me it is favorite !

I'm deeply offended, my bench seat may not be the prettiest but has a great personality
On a serious not, I'd take the boat handling of the Ribtec over a pretty layout any day.

Did Balistic not buy the workshops in SA that Ribeye used to use and their boats are made there? All personal choice

Chris we looked at Ballistic years ago and then I saw they were manufactured by same crews in SA so I made a choice then. I am open to be corrected as others will I am sure know more.
