maverick update ..

It's been a while since I updated you guys on maverick progress ... my 7.8m ribcraft.

At last got the liferaft cage and canister fitted to the front of the console and went for a couple of hypalon side satchels either side of the inside rear...

These are ideal for keeping lines tidied away, first aid and ditch bag, bottles of beer etc all neatly tucked away :-) and they look great in the position we chose for them. Dorian as ever was brilliant at ribcraft..

The rapide trailer was fitted with plain washers on the rocker wheels so these corroded within weeks and stained all the wheels - but the manufacturer was brilliant and sent stainless new washers and a set of 60 new wheels - just need a day to fit them all now ...

I'm keen to run some video as we've had some spectacular days out - been out today off Anglesy so will post some images and a jerky video (my first attempt) in cruises section ..

maverick project

they were included as apart of the entire stage one project cost for maverick by Ribcraft ... I think they were around £2k each - i may be wrong but I remember being gobsmacked at the cost - they are good bits of kit though ..
