Can I be apart of Ribnet ?

I am a new member and really impressed with your site, you all do areally good job and this site is excellent, I only I can offer somebody as much help one day as has been offered to me but now I have -
A question of behalf of a frien of mine, He owns a fast fishing boat 18ft Grp usual thing and has a Mariner 115 strapped to it.

Can he join RIBNET ? He is impressed with the social side of RIBNET and only bought the fast Fisher due to it being safer for his young kid 3 yearold ie higher sides etc. I know you need not preach to me about ribs v fast fisher type boats but thats what he has.

He is keen to do cruisin type activities but would not like to do them alone hence the question

He might have to go through an initiation of spending a night in the same room as a RibNet member after a trade show, and some beers I'll leave it up to the imagination .. but ...... consoles and bondage equipment will be a hot topic ( Bostik glue ... what did you think I meant ? )
