Having made my mind up about which RIB I want, I went and tried a 22' Sportsboat/cuddy on Saturday, a Monterey 218LSC to be exact.

Thanks for the input guys - I know personal choice of RIBS is just that and very subjective, but my needs probably differ from many on the board. My RIB will sit next to a pontoon and will be used...
