Osprey 6-6.5 meters (viper/xr20)

I'm searching for a osprey xr20, or maybe a osprey viper.
Don't mind to do some work to get her ready for the summer.
Prefer tubes in good condition, small damage/wearing is'nt a problem.

Who can help me?
Thanks for responding

I was planning to travel down to ireland.
Saw just what i looked for, but the osprey was (after 2 months) just sold the day i e-maild to make an appointment.
The advertisement is yet still available on the internet @ apolloduck,
I've got the idea that buyer won't sell tot a foreigner (seems strange)
Anyone got experience with mourne boat sales? (www.mourneboatsales.com)
Or has advice for me.

I was disappointment for me, wanted to travel down in this week becuase i had an week of holiday.
I've sent a reply to keep in touch if buyer would cancel, never had an answer.....

I;m still searching, budget 12-15 K in euro's.

There are a lot of email scams targeted at boat sales in Ireland (and UK I guess). It seems a bit tough to deceive you though, if they did - I think they're a bit slow updating their web details...

.
I have no knowledge of them, but I'd suggest you give them a call by telephone - their accent will be at least as strange as your's

By know still have not found an rib.
Still prefer an xr 20. Maybe someone of you might know an xr 20 for sale?
I'm just totaly in love with the hardnose.

Still looking out every day for an "no nonsense" RIB.

Thanks guys foor looking out for me.
I've spotted this viper already, i take a look at apolloduck dailly.
This one is out of budget and the colours is not what im looking for.

My problem is that i can't get the xr20 out of my head.
Even though it's an older model, i'm just in love with it.
The viper\vipermax is also a good choice for me.
But spending this ammount of money, than the rib must be almost just like i want it.
I like grey/black hull and black tubes.
set up of console and seats is less important, that i can change myself.
Think i just have to be patience.

Best regards Frank

hi guys,

Missed out on a xr20 today.
The very last second my bid was overbidded with 100 pounds.....
Must be some sort of snipe bidding on ebay?
So right now stil looking out for an osprey xr20.
A project xr like Paul E bought is more than perfect.
So if anyone of you all now a xr20 for sale, get in toch with me.
For the right xr20 at a realistic price i have cash waiting.
Till then i will have a good search on the internet every day.

Frank
