[Borealis]

Hi folks,

I am looking for either a 5.3 or a 5.85 Ribcraft, with four stroke outboard, trailer etc, approx 2007 or newer and excellent cond with low hours.

Would also consider Humber Destroyer, XS 550 or Vipermax about the same age.

Thanks,

Fraser

Dont discount the R.C 5.45 Fantastic Hull! And VERY well thought of by anyone who's owned one!

Is the RC5.45 still constructed?

They removed the '545' from thier brochure for a while,BUT I was told because of demand for this much loved boat they re-instated it, on special order.
Indeed I saw some they had made for the Olympics on my last trip to the factory,and they' looked great! They are a truly good,realy Deep Vee hull [considerably deeper than the '530]and are basicly a cut down '585',that is 1" narrower.In my opinion there is no sub 5.5m RIB that can touch them!
Incidently,Rib international did a good review a few years ago which you can download.
Good hunting!What ever you end up with in the RC range I'm sure you'll love it!
