I'd want a pair of big inboards in it if I could afford one but I love it.

Yup, I think it looks great. Some RIBS are turning into miniature pimped out gin palaces. I am waiting for someone to install a microwave and TV. I hope Hightower does not get tempted.

Nah, I would choose the new 820 Ilmor, then you would get real performance.
I wish????

When does a RHIB become a hard hull with full length fenders!?

i asked the same question when i saw that vid , the tubes are doing nothing but i guess if they drag in the water is slows the boat down

Perhaps they'd stuffed the Rib into a semi submerged container and were driving around like twats trying to shake it off.

The music from about 2:30 sums them up - look very much like Crompton clones to me.........
