Yep, there was no engine on the hull and the trailer had been set up ready for a motor. A little bit nose heavy perhaps

Land Rovers and RIBs just look so right together - I think you need a bigger trailer though!!!

regarding the trailer, it is so that the boat is too far in the front. I have to replace the V pole where the hull is in.
