Avon Redcrest - offers to get out of my garage

Didn't think this qualified as a full on RIB so thought I'd post down here.

I am getting rid of an old avon redcrest that I have had hanging around the garage for a while. Its old & used , has a patch on the front chamber ( just above rubbing strake) and one in the bow floor.

Holds air well & stays up for weeks on end over the summer when was when I used it last. Also has the inflatable seat . Nothing else with it - no oars or OB bracket - just the basic boat.

Ideal if you need a tender to keep at a club etc.

I have been seeing these go for what I view as silly money on the web ( hundreds of pounds) but no SENSIBLE offer refused ! PM if interested - hope to get some pics tomorrow when Inflate & its lighter .

Also looking to get rid of a cover for 7-7.5m RIB - again photos & details on here tomorrow

Pete

Pics taken in last half hour

Just inflated - still holds air - usual minor hiss form the valves till you put the caps in & then fine.

3 pics - one deflated before I blew it up & then 2 inflated ( obvious really! )

If any one wants to make me an offer OVER £60 & come & pick it up its theirs ! It weighs a bloody ton so not really one for posting. (Pete - I'm over you way every other week - kids live Portchester , parents in Lee - so can drop off if you are interested )
