RIB hire - southampton area

Can anyone recommend a rib hire company in the Southampton to Christchurch area? I am after a large twin engine boat for a days hire at the beginning of June. Bare boat only.

Cheers,

Mike

Mike try these guys at Port Solent- they have a big rib with twin engines, but it guzzles fuel

http://www.boatability.co.uk/charter...-renegade.html

either that or run through trade directory above for bare boat from Ribnet teams

roughly what am i looking at to charter a 6m + rib in the solent for a weekend.

i would like to weigh this up to the costs of hiring a 4 x 4 and towing down the ribtec 655.

usually i would zap round by sea, but cant spare the time.

this will be 1st weekend of may.
