My New RIBTEC

Managed to get down today and had a couple of hours free so had a quick ride out, many thanks for all the advice given, everything went very smoothly and I have paperwork for pretty much everything now.

Nice looking boat, for a horrible moment I thought they were speakers on the "A" frame. But nobody would do such a thing, would they

No they are very large NAV LIGHTS with noise built in

I just sold a similar boat but it had a 100 on it, just replaced it with the RIBTEC 655 , great sea keeping boats

They are part of a very sophisticated raggie annoyance device the previous owner had put on, I tried it on Itchenor reach and it worked a treat.

When I showed the boat to the Mrs I said I'd take them off but she liked them and I hate to say it but they do sound really good, just need to find a place to fit sub :roll eyes:


The only problem I'm having is boat handling in the marina, used to 2 engines so struggling a little.

Nah! the Raggie annoyance device is the black bit on the back with "Mercury" written down the side

Hi Thomas, nice boat
I can see I will have to get a bigger Rib to beat you to get my order for the Beef next time!



Well it just so happens I too have bought anther Rib got myself a 6m Ribeye with a 115hp on it, not collecting it till new-year though!
Funny to think the 3 of us out just a few weeks ago & now we have all bought new boats!!

Hope to see you soon

Nick
