4m - 5m Rib Wanted

Hi All

I'm still looking for a well spec'ed 4 - 5m rib, nothing older than 3 years (unless in exceptional condition).

Must haves are really only A Frame & road trailer and for the boat to have decent HP engine. Not sure how scary you can make a 4/5m rib but the scarier the better.

Cash waiting, I will travel but would like to find something within 150 miles of Dorset.

Happy to bide my time for the right boat and also happy to hear from any dealers if you have something suitable.

Thanks for reading.
