Greek Site Of Ribs

I take the oppurunity to invite y in our Greek association of RIBS.
www.ofse.gr
you may see our smal and big raids including some of the greek boats manufacturers and also get an idea of how our country is.
unfortunately is better detailed in Greek language but nobody is perfect.
I would be happy to give any info needed to explore more....

Maybe sometime you would like to visit us as adventure......

Nice to see RIBs are really popular in Greece - it proves they aren't only suited to rough seas.

We do get rough seas around here as well.
RIBs are popular in Greece firstly for being safe at rough seas and then for their ability to approach the numerous shallow water beaches around the isles.

I know you can get some very nasty waves but you don't get them as often!!! The Atlantic combined with some of the biggest tides in the world give us Brits some pretty nasty conditions.

I am sure most of us would swop for your conditions any day!!!
