Ribcraft 5.1????

Hi, I've been offered this boat for sale...

Can anyone tell me exactly what model it is, and roughly what year, as I can't seem to find any reference on the internet to a Ribcraft 5.1..?

These are the details given....

5.1 meter
mid 90,s boat and engine
2 yr old roller trailer
suzuki 65hp 2 stroke power trim & tilt plus new spare prop [cost £120]
new battery
jockey concel,nav lights fish finder,anchor, life jackets

Any idea what is it worth?

It doesn't look like a ribcraft to me?? loox more like a ribtec hull, dificult to tell though as the pictures don't reveal too much detail. Also I don't think ribcraft made a 5.1, where does it say 5.1 or did somebody just tell yu the size after measuring the boat?

We've made all sorts of custom sizes in the past as one off's. Doesn't look like one of ours though, I would agree with Tims Osprey, looks like a watercraft hull, Ribtec used the same one too.

Looks like its been used as an FRC or a rescue boat. The A frame is curved and may have had a righting bag fitted?
