I think i have a problem...
I have just bought my third Inflatable.... I can't seem to help myself

It's my third current boat, 3.8 Zodiac Grand Raid, 5.4 Zodiac Grand Raid and a 7.3 Zodiac Hurricane.
Does anyone have a cure or should I embrace my problem?
I'm still currently married......

Only 3? No need to worry for a while yet.

The fleet sounds pretty much OK

I think I see what your basic problem is though

Not sure if I can help you with advice - I tried one of those wife swapping nights myself, but no-one would swap her for a half decent RIB so I gave up...

Is that why you ended up having to sell the RIB?

Happy Boating

Do you own all three currently? If so you might need help quickly...or a bigger storage building, "out of site = out of mind".

I had a customer who's wife collected Airstream trailers. She had 22 of them. They are beautiful aluminum clad caravans around 6-9 meters each. Good thing they owned enough land to store them.
