Picked up my new 11m rib, powered by twin 240 yamahas, and just to spoil myself installed a cabin heating system, she also can sleep two in the front cabin area. Will let you no how she handles later

An impressive looking boat. Interesting to see harnesses fitted - I guess the likelihood of capsize is pretty minimal!

Would like to see a pic of the sleeping accommodation if poss!

Were you on the 'Ribraid' to Portpatrick this summer? I think I climbed over this boat to get to shore! Nice piece of kit.

Congrats Seatreks!

Briliant choice of boat!

For anybody interested I have approx 40 images of a recent gathering of Redbay boats in Redbay and passing around Fair Head. Any body got any ideas of how to post them without wrecking the net. Individual images are approx 250k. Some of pics are technical in detail.

I would suggest putting them on a site and then posting a link here to the site. There are various sites which offer free or cheap photo hosting or you could design your own site as most ISPs give you some free space. HTH

mmmmm people in arab countries get their hands cut off for less!!!

Yes I have met Tom a few times and was up at redbay recently actually had a lovely wee scoot over to rathlin in an 11m Toms own boat twas like a rocket and it was a really rough day by some peoples standards but not ours K!! would do it again in a flash lovely trip and I think Redbay are a well put together boat, but you really have to experience them personally to understand their brilliance!Health to the guy to enjoy it which I am sure he will.

It's a difficult system to run well...particularly with so many financial interests in the site nowadays. Only natural to be slappin each other on the back

Seatreks look forward to some more (action) shots!!!
Really like the look of Redbay and they seem to have a great reputation (that's genuine 'reputation' this time )
