When you say bow seat and double jockey console do you mean side by side or one behind the other?
It'll be impossible side by side and a squeeze with one behind the other but possible.

Nah, not side to side, front and behind, if you know what I mean! It can be bigger, but bow seat is important but not neceasery! But double console is!

Looking at mine you might fit a double jockey but the bow seat won't be comfy.
BMC were recently selling a console which was extended at the front for a fuel tank but would have done what you were wanting.
If you need any measurements or photos let me know?

Looking over some other forums on other websites, for what am wanting I think I should go for a larger boat with a bit more space!

Showing the years there chewy! The little gits are loaded, its takes about £750 just to dress one.

Severn, me auld coxswain, tell your parents that you've gone a bit meh on the wholesome outdoor rib idea and will just hang with your mates instead, race a few borrowed cars, maybe score some drugs and knock up a nice girl with a Burberry cap.

They'll start to see things your way

I was impressed when my kid brother (15) could afford a second hand SIB and outboard.

Nope, if I told my lass I wouldn't buy some new clothes so I could buy a RIB she would ask how much the clothes were costing.

I take it you get an "allowance" which you have chose to save rather than spend? How will you afford to run the RIB and maintain it once you get it?

Emm, I want to keep some money spare for wen I buy one for repairs if I need to do any, but running costs wont over dramatic if I get a good 4 stroke, and fuel wont be the much of an issue untill wen I have to start paying for it myself! Emmm and insurance I will have to lean on my parents for that side and other things like to service the engine I would call some favours! Obv it aint gona work out that way, but it will be something along they lines!

No it will be mine, cause I will actually pay for it, I'll just get them to pay for fuel and repairs, I'll do the insurance stuff I think!

I sense a rather jealous middle age man who probably wishes he had been more prudent with his money as a child and wished his parents could have helped! I think fair play for trying to save towards a rib rather than blow it on computer games where he would be stuck inside and get fat. Or on drugs and end up inside! Good on you I say and I hope your parents respect the fact you have saved yourself over a period of time and help you out if they can further to enable you to get out on the water!
