The man has taste, if he wants black then great. Humber made quite a few, the advert they used in Diver mag back then featured a really tasty black Destroyer.
Good luck on your search!

It's black, a Humber Destroyer, 7m and there-abouts on price! Bit of gaffa tape and Bob's your uncle! Can't help regards VAT, unless of course our buyer works for Google or Apple?

For £20k I'd put my gold sovereigns into a Delta anyway!

Looks a bit rich on the price to me, but it is still summer!

Sorry Nigel, must have got our wires crossed here. Not sure you would be interested in my boat as its orange but if your still interested let me know. I was just responding to your thread regarding engine size and general humber destroyer information if you need it!

you can come over and look at ours if you wish when I'm ashore. Black 6m Humber Destroyer 90 four stroke Suzuki. We have driven for Humbers at boat shows etc for years and this one was made for us to our spec. in 2002/3
I'm skippering commercial boats much of the time. The boat is not up for sale as such but if you want to pop over and have a look I could be persuaded as we have considered altering its seating from the single jockey plus a double jockey to 4 singles to comply with rya reqs for intermediate and advanced training boats. I could just go back to them and buy a new one with the required seating plan instead. PM me if interested. The reply could be delayed a tad depending on which boat I'm on and where it is........

thanks for the offer but like you I want the single seat layout possibly remove the two rear jockeys for a little extra room at rear .
maybe I should change the wanted ad to black rib prefer humber but willing to consider other 6+ mtr ribs
