Rib for next weekend

Has anyone got a rib that they aren't using next weekend in the solent or anywhere between hertfordshire and hampshire. My engine is dead and Jimbo's tubes are still dead so need to find another boat. Doesn't need to be coded because there won't be any paying passengers on board. Does anyone want to do a deal?? I can't really afford to pay charter prices - being a student. Offers?

Many Thanks

David

Dave:

My Boss on Hayling will hire out his 4.5m tornado with a 50hp on the back for around £70.

If you've found cheaper, go for it. Despite what you may or may not be able to afford, people won't give you something for nothing, and if the price isn't right for them, they just wont hire it!

In other news, my new rib console fits nicely, electrics look all good etc. Just got to get the tubes off to be repaired, pick up the engine, and I'll be getting close!

Hi Dave - give me a ring sometime this week. May have something of interest to you. But as everyone else is suggesting - it won't be something for nothing, OK ?
