My new to me 1994 Osprey RIB

She needs a bit of work to bring her back to her former glory ! She will be ready for March with a bit of luck :-) I am on the market for a 90HP outboard engine. I dont think the pictures have uploaded so I will try again to see if I can get them up. Mark

Mods help... Could I email the pictures to you, and could you attach them for me please ? Thanks. Mark

May be worth a look. If it's ok, it's a lot of motor for £1250

Jetstream, you can email them to me and I'll put them up for you. For help with doing it yourself see the link in my signature (its probably your files are too big - you'll need to resize them using something like the free tool you can download from microsoft "power toys").

Sorry Mark, an email from an unknown source with lots of large attachments got treated as spam last night. It is currently downloading and I'll upload the pics later.

Thank you Neil.

As you can see...quite a bit of work to be done ! already had the trailer sand blasted and two coats of primer applied, new bearings brakes and brake cables now fitted. I will be spraying the trailer silver using Rust-oleum CombiColor. All new Stainless Steel nuts,bolts washers and split pins have and will be used. Everything has been taken off that can be taken off the RIB, the center console has been rubbed down, filled and rubbed down...just a bit more to do then the wet and dry will be used to get it smoother than the proverbial ! Then to the spray shop who will also be spraying the top bow area !!! :-) . Mark

Not sure that boat will weigh enough for the trailer to need brakes, but I could be wrong.

Nice project by the way...
