Hi Willowkis I thought we had an agreement of not having photos of me on the forum (just joking)
Great pictures, I am at Heathrow now waiting for my flight it was great meeting you Aaron and Chris plus all others I meet fir first time.
I will be back on the forum after midnight when I finally get home (if I wouldn't be totally burned to ashes) Look forward get back home to the colder climate

I have personal thanks to SimmonsO for having me on board their fantastic Solent Rib with diesel, they have made me rethinking of diesel engines as I have been truly an outboard man, again thanks for the ride.

Take care all

p.s.
Paul and Kathleen thanks for your assistance and Kevin well organised party.

This is an embarrashment situation as I feel myself best kept in the corner as an observer.

Had a ride on the Parker 900 this morning and it is a good rib and give good speed, worth having a serious look for those of you interest in cabin RIB.

Hi Manos
Thanks for the comments - this is our demo boat that was launched on the Saturday morning and taken straight to the show for the weekend. All went really well and very pleasd with performance / handling. Powered by a 140 Suzuki - and very impressed with that - although still got more running in to do.

The boat is a 6.5m - although overall length is just over 7 metres. Hull is a double stpped hull - although the steps are unique as I have tapered them to give initial effect but still giving good handling at lower speeds and in the turns as it is not a raceboat. We built one customer boat last year and have just delivered another customer boat this week. Price wise we are looking in the region of £23k for a complete boat with the Suzuki depending on options. Think this is a pretty good price - although may well have to raise it a bit in the future.

Adam
