Ribex BananaShark Competition!

I have 2 VIP tickets to give away for Ribex - they entitle you to entry on all 3 days of the show!

To win these tickets you need to get all of the following right:

A) How big is the hull (the fibreglass bit only) of our new concept boat that will be at the show?

B) What is the overall length of this boat?

C) What is the power plant (HP and engine size)?

D) What is the drive used?

Good luck everyone!

ps. I also have some of the half price tickets - they will be awarded totally at random for imaginative, witty or very close entries

Hi Tim,

We will have both the 770 with a Verado 250 on it and the new "Concept boat"!

Going to take any guesses?

By the way there is no limit of entries for this one!

Taking a wild stab in the dark, and guessing that Kitten has made a model!

3 feet long for the fibreglass
3 feet and a bit with the tube/engine

1hp ethanol engine, with a prop and rudder to drive it

bound to be way off

3)Powered by a hot air gas turbine from a large number of caged ribnetters discussing 4x4s and whether or not Codprawn actually exists,

4) Large plastic paddles.
