I'd highly recommend going to one - security tends to be lax and pocket sized bits can be boosted with impunity. My new Poacher's Coat has a reinforced liner and is ready for serious work
Well, they can't say that they weren't warned

Wheest! It's just odds and ends they don't know they have. 20m warps are very handy. Cleats and light ironmongery is workable.

If you want fenders it can attract the wrong sort of attention....

Like "So you must really like the new 11m??? "

I think the used boats are on brokerage with Redbay - Mr Willk is too frugal to pay them a grand or two for putting it on their website....

AFAIK, they don't do Brokerage, I think it's more a "we'll sell your boat and you'll buy our's kinda thing".... I'm certainly too frugal to cough up a grand to anyone to flog me rib.

It's the Scroatish blood in me

Anyone considering buying a RIB should go to this. I have just spent a very interesting weekend with Tom of Redbay. Huge big seas from the East made for an interesting trip to Rathlin. The waves breaking on the slip where massive so had to all climb on board while Connor did a "LifeBoat Launch" The waves were breaking over the fly bridge from the stern and this is an 11 metre boat!

F6-7 all the way there and it got worse for the trip home! Had to berth the boat around the corner because it was too bad to even attempt a recovery.
A truley amazing craft Alan P
