What's the verdict on this beauty? Would it make a nice Rib with the daft Bimini taken off? Or is it a ridiculous looking thing? I can't make my mind up.

I thought it looked pretty cool with the lights along the t-top.

Nice looking RIB may well have had a retube at some point.
- bimini thing looks awful, may be better if it wasn't so tall.
-Kernow style 'seat'
-those 150HP Johnsons are very thirsty
See how much it goes for....

Does look cheap.

My Johnson 150VRO was very thirsty on my Ocean 625.

Cruising at 25knots was over 2.5 l/mile, and god only knows how much at WOT(32Kn).

Two or three hours on the Solent was 60 to 80 quid.

It made the boat un-useable as it was just too expensive to run.

Nasher.

Could carry a nice set of ladders on the roof rack.

I'm not surprised it's cheap-the guy is stupid enough to post that he tried to repair it and has no real idea. If he didn't know about the choke what else doesn't he know?!

I don't like the bimini top either

<edit> Hang on, it's on ebay....It's waaaay too cheap. It's insane on there at the moment. Just sold my old blueband on there as spares/repair.... for £525 and it had 79 watchers!

He doesn't even know what he is selling, its not an Osprey

Never seen an Osprey with such a round hard nose cone...
