Nice looking boat Bertus. A friend of mine just sold his after many years of use. It was a good dive boat for him, but his wife made him get one of those boats with the big stick and the laundry hanging all over it...

Just a thought: You might consider adding a Keel-guard if you're going to be beaching it. They're inexpensive and offer pretty good protection for your hull.

Thnxx, Good idea the protection
Is your friends first name Ché? I had contact with someone in Canada who sold his boat? I try to contact the buyer but no luck.
I bought the boat without the tube and got a new tube at Zodiac (good service btw).
there is also one fore sale in the UK I tried to contakt them but did not get any answer of them.

I would appreciate advice re the best place to buy replacement tubes for my Zodiac Pro 530 - either from the USA or Europe. I am based in Australia and would like to buy these direct from Zodiac to avoid the high mark ups of the local dealer.

Does anyone have a second hand or new set they would like to sell?

Part number is Z6859 FLOTTEURS PRO 530 RED

Thanks
