Nice Rib!!!

I was out in this new Arctic 37. Hugely impressed. Powered by two new Yanmar 8LV's which are awesome. Very quiet and smooth and power is incredible. Very well built RIB and excellently finished.

The title of your thread took me back 45 years to my primary school and the teacher who banned us from using the adjective 'nice', saying that there was ALWAYS a better one to use. But in this case it's entirely appropriate.

Nice. Brilliant understatement.

Not sure she'd have given me any marks for ' kin awesome!
