Ocean 5.9m

Hi all,
A friend's just told me about this boat for sale, anyone know anything about them? Don't know any more at the moment, just wondered what sort of hull it is. I've been told there's a company in Porchester (Portchester?) called Ocean Ribs but can't find them, have a phone number that Pete7 gave me but am not in the UK. Any info / opinions grewatfully received!

I went to their site a couple of years ago and they implied that they could sell as many boats as they could make, so maybe they dont need a good website.
I was at ribex this weekend and saw quite a few 7.5 & 8.5 oceans there as visitors.
I thought they did have a better website than that though.
Hope this helps, Nick.

I bought my console from Ocean, very good indeed for the money!

They were building a monster of a rib, twin inboard Volvos, seats for 12, made for whale watching, it was a work of art!

From what dealings i have had with boating companies, Ocean were right up there.

Couldn't agree more, the help and advise I've had from Ocean since buying my secondhand 6.25 has been great.
