The 9000S looks very like a Carson, and the artist's impression of the 9000ES is exactly the same as one on the Crompton web site!

BTW talking of new RIB companies, are the "Breeze" RIBs Shakeys too?

Jono, i don't think there is a website for Breeze but they are indeed Shakespeare's.... tubed by ourselves.

The pic's of the Seawolf shakey's look as though they are in Paul Tilley's workshop.

Alan, when you say the 'real thing', which do you mean? The 9mtr Carson?

Yes the mould we use was originally a Carson mould, but it was purchased directly from Barry Carson.

The 9000 ES design and picture was supplied to us by the same designer that produced the design for Crompton.

Unfortunately the mould does not belong to Steve Harvey who organises ribex!! It belongs to me, my name is also Steve Harvey. Having turned a boat out for our use the seawolf 9000 is now being built under licence by Dolphin Boats
