Ideas on what this is worth

Well what can I say.
Been building this rib for a friend and at the start money was no problem Now it seems it is.!!

With a new car and a new Girlfriend he has No interest in finishing the rib now.

I move home in approx 3 weeks to a property that better suits my medical needs.

So I am thinking whats it worth as a project. to somebody else to complete ???

The total works now outstanding seem to be a built in fuel tank the decking.
Fitting the included consul the consul has been part wired with 6 way fuse panel and fuel gauge and screen and front hatch. No tubes fitted.

No trailer no tubes. included.
Require more photos E mail me.

Needless to say I have not seen him for a few weeks now just the odd phone call.

I would have it myself if it was not for the fact I am unable to go bouncing around in a rib anymore.


Interested pm me and i will pass it on. Some of the project posted on the forum.

Maybe not that much as it's a one off with no history from an unknown builder with no CE mark?

You could cut some holes in it and put it in the front garden full of flowers

Unfortunately, Sonar, I have to agree with bedajim on this one.

A couple of Shakespere RIB hulls sold recently on ebay for around £1000-£1500, and they were from an established manufacturer with RCD compliance.

Good luck though - you've put a hell of a lot of work into that and it would be a real shame for it to never hit the water.

Thanks
I am not to bothered what he gets for it as I am moving within the next 4 weeks.
I would rather it was away before I go.

He may stick it on ebay who knows his problem not mine.
He sold the moulds on Ebay I did not even know they were on it.

Still i asked as I said i would.

I saw the moulds and assumed it was you selling them.

As he managed to sell the moulds, it may be worth him contacting the purchaser to see if he also wants to buy the hull that came out of them?

I also agree that it's not going to be worth a lot, but think it would go for more on ebay as two lots, the hull and console seperated.

By the way, from the image the console would make a great kids bulldozer in a playground. - Sorry that doesn't help.
