Tinker Foldaway RIB
It's been a few years since I actually owned a RIB, so I thought it was about time I remedied the situation. Not wanting anything too ostentatious or extravagant, I decided to go for something compact and cheap to run.

I appear to have bought a sailing boat. Could somebody please fetch my medication?

It may be little, but it has a mean bite!

I strongly recommend avoiding getting your fingers trapped in the folding bit.
