Can't see what you are on about, compared to some of the Redbay range this one looks great. and why the feck you think you can judge a Rib is unstable from a 3D rendered CAD drawing of a concept boat just goes to demonstrate you really don't have a clue. The one thing you can guarantee if it's a Redbay is it won't be unstable.

If it can do Weymouth to Alderney on 60 quid of diesel and in 2 hours then I will have one, two maybe if they do them in something other than white.

It's not polite to ask that round these parts... "Is dat clean deezil? Well I dunno, but 'tis well enough laundered!"

I'm paying about 55cents plus tax a liter delivered. Do you actually have to PAY for fuel over there?

55 Euro Cents? Thats worth a million pounds nowadays isn't it?

And yes we do have to pay, we are not all wreckers, scroungers and pirates you know. Besides, most of them are in the financial districts and keep their boats in Dubai.

..... and also discuss other peoples views, you may have had a perfectly good reason why you thought it looked unstable?

Are you related to Garf or Wilfish?

I fear, Glasshoppa, that you not look Truely with Good Eye and Open Heart . That's not "rear standing quarters", that's an upper deck containing a wheelhouse
