I purchased the boat new in September 2021, I have owned in my lifetime over 15 different boats, half of which have been Ribs and this is by a country mile the absolute very best boat I have owned.
I will be geninely sad to let it go but go it mus.
Why do I think it's the best boat ever?
1 It's incredibly economical, it's got a 120l fuel tank which I always keep fully topped up. I launch and recover it from my home and I pass a petrol station everytime, I'm always shocked at how little we use in a day out! You will never be disappointed with the fuel economy and you'll be lucky to spend £25-£30 for a full day out.
2. It is the first aluminium boat I've owned, I hadn't realised how much lighter it is than a glass fibre boat! It's so light I can very easily launch and recover this 6m boat totally on my own. With the added benefit of not having to be precious about a gel coat. If you scratch this boat you simply touch it up, if you are unlucky enough to puncture it you can very easily patch it up seamlessly (this has never happened to me). This means that at any state of the tide you can drop it onto a sandy/shaly beach and with the extreme roller coaster trailer you can just reverse up to it, virtually go completely underneath it with the trailer and when you get the knack you only have to use the winch for the last couple of foot! It's blooming amazing and makes you look very good!
3. I've previously spent a lot of money on stainless steel props but in truth the standard set up on this amazingly efficient, powerful engine will amaze you, I guess it's because of the weight. I've managed to get 38 knots and I reckon in perfect conitions it will get to 40!
4. As you'll see from the photographs,the D shape as opposed to the traditional round inflatable tubes offer a massive benefit.
Description
Tubes continued! 
They look amazing and they simply do not interfere with the deck space, this 6m rib has acres of functional space.  It's acutally very comfortable with as many as 8 people on it and those people will be seated on cushioned seats not hanging on to bouncy tubes.  Underneath the seats there are a total of 9 extremely large lockers and two very useful side pockets and cup holders.  The two at the rear are sealed and I acutally used them with a circulation pump as live bait fishing wells and this works incrediby well and is very functional.
5. I've used the boat predominantly out of my local harbour in Pembrokeshire, I launch and recover from a tiny little inlet, I''m the only boat that can launch and recover at any state of the tide.  I use the boat mainly for a combination of fishing, spear fishing, acting as a safety boat whilst I've been learning to Wing Foil but I guess mostly as a family boat where we go sight seeing and touring around the beautiful Pembrokeshire coast.  Pretty much on every trip I will visit Ramsey Island which you may know has some of the wildest tidal races in the UK tidal waters. Ribs are used extensively taking out tours around the island and this little 6m rib with a 115 Suzuki absolutey loves the conditions.  It absolutely never takes in water over the front.  The unique shape whilst looking amazing is also performance wise fantastic.  The frame at the front allows for an incredibly easy recovery or drop off facility when I can happily take someone onto a precarious spot and they will very easily be able to get on or off the boat.   You won't believe how useful this will be.
6. Lastly, it is the most comfortable and well poised boat in any conditions, it seems to just smooth out everything.  It never slams, it just seems to glide!  Most of all, I think you'll agree, its one of the coolest looking ribs out there!

    Always talk to the seller on the phone, If the phone number on the listing doesn’t work or they never pick up then this is another sign it’s a scam.

    If the price seems too good to be true then this is usually a scamAnd finally, never ever buy a boat without viewing it or getting someone you know to view it.
