Hunton 904

Hi all,

Has anyone had an experience with the Hunton 904 (outboard version) in a heavy sea? How would you class it in terms of sea hundling compared with other 9.0m RIBs?

Of course finishing and luxury is evident...

Thanks in advance!

Surprised it didn't get edited out, Paul L doesn't mention it either....

On a different note I have contacted them twice in a professional capacity, neither time did they return my calls....

Lovely boat though.

I agree that it looks wet.. h/ever the "british shool" ribs with small diameter tubes have the same problem when the winds grow.. Same size Scorpions and Revengers for example get a similar spray on board..
