Caribe RIBs

[rik_elliott]

Anyone know much about these? After spending quite some time looking at rotomoulded boats and even sea testing one Ive been offered a Caribe 13 with a 30hp mariner 2 stroke. Its a lovely looking boat, and is well within budget. hypalon tubes too.

I was just wondering what peoples thoughts of this sort of rig would be.

EDIT
should have clarified - aiming two to three up rides in the solent, perhaps an IOW circling adventure at some point. Not keen on skiing or anything silly - ive owned a zapcat and so had my thrills as far as high speed and getting soaked go!

you cant go wrong with a caribe, very high quality, you can see it in there workmanship. everything is overbuilt. I owned a couple of ten foot dinghys. they seamed like a real boat as opposed to a inflatable boat. both of them were nice deep ve hulls. and you felt like you were sitting inside the boat. cant say enough good things about them, hope this helps

we had a caribe 13 with a yam 25 on. lovely boats well made, flew along three up with the 25. go for it!
