Original Engine

The engine was not the original and was in such a shocking state of repair it was likely to drop off the transom at any time. Now replaced with a new 90HP.

I now have enough information to get...

Hull detail

What RIB is this?

See improved quality images. It is 6m overall.

Anyone know what this is?

Hi, I've just bought this 6m RIB and as there is no nameplate or paperwork to say what it is does anyone recognise it. It has a very unusual hull form in the bow area. Almost stepped. Any help...
