RIBase
Does that extend to no optis either even though they are owned by the same company?

Opt's are fine that was my initial engine choice but then decided to go for the Verado's as I liked my last ones so much.

This should set the cat amongst the pigeons......but ooohhh well..
have you looked at Artic blue Ribs? The review in this months Sports boat and rib mag was very vey good. Then can be fitted with the new Ilmor 700 engine which returns 80 knots.. , as for pricing I think they would work out a similar price to nauti buoy2..

Just food for though

But if Richard starts driving a Artic Blue rib when he is a dealer for Parker what is he going to demo to the punters??

Roy, very much true. The reason is that Parker Poland is the distributor for Mercury/Mariner in Poland. Ones own transom for ones own engines

So Mercury / Mariner for outboard versions and Cummins Mercruiser for inboard

Bolster Seats

I am trying to find some seats similar as attached that you can either "Stand Up: and still have side support, rest against so just a small backside seat so you can sort of rest on.

Something like the attached but just not so bulky as the blue seats. Something in between the pics attached.

Bit like this I guess

Sorry about the bad 3d sketch, hope it make sense. Perhaps with a drop down bolster to allow you to sit or stand?
