Went for a Ribcraft 5.3

Hi,

Thanks for all your input and assistance, went for a Ribcraft 5.3 with a 90 etec on it in the end...

Got it home last week, going through her and updating fuel filter to a water separating version and lines (dated 2009) etc.. as we can only get E10 and want to avoid fuel related problems, got other small jobs to do but basically ready to go in the water..

Long shot but has anyone got a dive style ladder kicking around that might work for me?

Cheers

Great news and great choice - we need some photos though!

Hope you enjoy it once launched.

i have a ladder thats on a small platform bolts onto the transom kicking about somewhere its a stainless telescopic ladder that folds into a small swim platform approx a foot square very sturdy and easy to use .only thing is it bolts to the transom usually where an aux outboard would go ( the reason i took it off the valiant rib it was on )
