Do you mean the company or the boat.

I bought my rib from that company - wasn't overly impressed with them. Rib X have since taken the franchise off them, I think.

Was for sale by Bembridge Outboards all last year for £29,995.

Looks like a good deal but no trailer though.
No A frame either.

I dont know the boat

but, he puts the boats on at too high price, i know becuse i got mine from there, luckly for me the owner let it slip what he paid so we agreed a price before the broker tried to get more.

To put into prospective mine is a 2000 model, same lenght is i was to sell i would at the moment ask 17k and less as the years go on

Jimbob, if you sold your RIB for £17k you would be giving it away!

Rib X where with SAL Marine and they (SAL) decided not to continue with them.

"he puts the boats on at too high price"

Sorry missing the point, when i sell my boat i want the broker to get as much as poss. Perhaps he and all other brokers/dealers should start at a level where we all pay the right price, smell the coffee

I suppose my point is that, whilst i understand that the broker needs to get as much as you can, i suspect in his case he sometimes asks too much at the start and it takes some time to shift, there have been a few people on Ribnet in that state

Richard - oh no
