That looks stunning.. hmmmm. keep doing the lottery numbers me tinks!!

[kerny]

The blue looks nice but black and white always comes back into fashion eventually... thats why I had my bathroom tiles done in black and white... saves money in the long run

Great boats.... But I am biased!
Strong, heavy and very sea kind.... Ie just what you need in Ireland!

Discerning Redbay owners insist on green tubes though

Blue is good

How much would you guys expect to pay for a 2006 Redbay 6.5 with a 175HP Suzuki with 300 hours on it? It has black tubes, 4 jockey seats, trailer, GPS etc. and is in good condition. Thanks

I really AM guessing, but I'd say 18-20K??

I was thinking Sterling - and it certainly has gone sky high at the moment! I'm not a price expert - just basing on a few I've seen for sale. Assuming top nick and well maintained.

Is there much difference between the Redbay 6.5 and the 650?

I am also hoping to win the lotto. But I am wondering are the 6.1 & 6.5 m redbays tail heavy when rigged with twin engines as so often seemes to be the way?

The 650 has a fully moulded GRP deck and console, so the finish is very good, but it reduces the ability to customise the boat somewhat. The 6.5 is the same hull with a ply or Nidaplast deck.

To answer TSMs question, I'm not sure about the 6.1 (I have no experience with it) but the 650/6.5 is well able to cope with twin outboards - the beam is enormous! I've seen a 6.1m with twin Suzi 75s running in a bit of a sea and it looked fine.
