Road Trailer for 81.m Mono-hull RIB
Looking for a second hand trailer in good condition - preferably for free (hehe,heh) which is capable of carrying an 8.1m mono-hull RIB - not too expensive.

Heh, heh ... would'nt you like to know? What do you mean, is it yellow? I am about to place an order for the 8.1 m Scorpion as displayed at the show, with 2 Merc Optimax 200hp - What colour do you suppose ?
Where can I get a trailer from?

I seem to remember that you rather liked the very fetching turquoise as displayed on the Scorpions at the show!
There is a trailer listed on the for sale page - have you considered that one?

I am led to believe (by the owner of the Cabin Scorpion shown at Ribex) that the correct name for the tube colour is "CYAN"!
Me, I prefer yellow!

John, the snipe trailer you suggested has been sold!
We sound like a bunch of old grannies deciding on a colour for our new tea cosy!

The name of the "cyan" coloured tube fabric is Ibiza blue. Though it looks like turquoise to me

Hi Nick
So, what other shades of blue are there? What would Jellignite have been?

Gellignite is a rather reddish looking blue called "Rouge Vesuve"
other blues we have in stock are ocean blue (navy) or alpine blue (a lovely bright blue, my favorite)

Oh dear, I'll have to tell Brian that his tubes are "Ibiza Blue" rather than Cyan. Don't think he'll be impressed!!!
Alan.

Now look chaps. My RIB is Cyan or Prussian blue right.
It's just that the tube fabric guys have got it all wrong and Ibiza Blue is some funny name dreamed up by people who have probably been taking something they shouldn't have last time they had a Med. holiday.
My wife says the correct technical name is Cyan and if you want to argue with HER then the best of luck to you. I don't-but then I am chicken (or smart whichever way you want to look at it). You could try looking up Cyan in the dictionary. That's what I did (when she wasn't looking, of course!)
