glad to see you enjoyed the video, got bored one night and decided to compile it on windows movie maker. turned out all right

Okay, I have a question for Petrov:

How are your throttles hooked up for quad outboards? 2 levers for port and starboard pairs? Or 4 levers (seems a bit cumbersome)? Or a single throttle control for all the motors?

Never really thought about it before seeing the hand on the throttle in your vid.

Petrov · 04 October 2006, 16:17

Here is your answer, kobelt remotes with gears, only 8 levers

Biggles · 10 October 2006, 16:02

That mast is an excellent idea. Anyone know how high you have to get a radar transmitter to stop it frying you.

Guess Parker Ribs might have started something here.

The next craze on RIBS. Masts.

As long as it's not in a straight line with your head it will be fine - they have a pretty narrow beam width.

Petrov,

how fast is he going with those 4 Vmax engines?

P

Petrov · 13 October 2006, 14:27

Its not really VMAX, they got a OK from Yamaha Japan to name them VMAX, but it is the Yamaha 250 4-stroke.
Boat is doing just under 70 knots.

Seaharrier · 13 October 2006, 15:03

Just under 70 kn is impressive!

Are those standard 250 hp 4 strokes or is there something different about them? And why putting the VMax logo on it?

Petrov · 13 October 2006, 16:29

Its standard 250, the VMAX logo is only for the look

Just made a quick video of one of our trips between Finland and Sweden with our RIB36.

Enjoy ! http://media.putfile.com/RIBfinswe

I'll try and make a better video during the winter.

I'm starting to think we need a mast on our RIB also....

Here are a couple of pics I took of your boat and mast in Sandhamn during Gotland Runt.

Petrov · 23 October 2006, 20:57
