Andy,

I refer you to the first paragraph of my previous post. Do you know the age of your boat? By the sound of it you have the previous model, as on mine the bilge pump (and associated outlet...

Andy,

As far as I know, the A500, A550, A600 and S650 have had the same draining arrangements since about 2008 when the hull moulding changed significantly. My knowledge was gained through...

With all due respect, what nonsense!


Regarding the wood, the only wood (painted) was the rear seat base but they changed to composite in 2012 or thereabouts. I suspect other manufacturers...

“Literally falling to bits”

Xk59D,

Perhaps you can share your knowledge and wisdom with us Ribeye owners and tell us what it is that’s “falling to bits”?

Fuel cost Dartmouth vs Salcombe

Actually the fuel at both locations is provided by the same Company, Yeowards, so I suspect the cost will be pretty much the same.

A 100hp will be fine on something like an A550. On one of those exceptional days when you can cruise at WOT my Yam 100hp A600 will do 37/38 kts - a pal of mine with the same boat with a Yam 130 goes...

If you can get a new-style (i.e. post 2007 change) A600 for only £2-3k more then I really don't see £16k being a realistic value for a 2003, regardless of its condition and upgrades. In the last 6...

Lark,

I'm a bit puzzled because every A600 I've ever seen has a grab handle next to the outer seat. Are you saying you want something else somewhere else? If somewhere else, like where?

Directed energy weapons?

Takson,

Having owned 2 Ribeyes in the last 7 years, firstly i would say that adverse comments about Ribeye quality certainly aren't valid since 2007; remember that Ribeye bashing is a popular...

With the same boat as yours we use the SIB/tender to get into beaches or to go up creeks or just for the kids to 'play' in or just use a swimming platfom when at anchor. Having watched...
