My opinion is that the boat may be stern heavy with a self righting frame and system, it's only a little boat, I will bow to democratic rule though

Picking up our rib now

Just done some very quick sums... With the £240 that did go into the account and the £500 donation form Topspeed that will be going in next week I reckon we need a further £1160 to make it £1900 I think we will then have enough for the engine and trailer, so we need 29 more donations of £40 into our bank account that biffer set up by next weekend.

If you donate £40 into our account please post a message on here with your company details website and a pic of your team/family/business logo and i will post your message on our Facebook page. I will also write a list of these donations for the magazine

Please can someone post the bank details again as I'm stood in a field in the dark!

No need for self righting gear dude, but thanks for the offer The A Frame would never take it. I have an SR4.7 with the self righting A Frame and it's massive

Tubes look ok, it's just the rubbing strakes and places where its worn a bit.

There are two bits missing from the boat though, a hypalon bag that goes on the black for the rear seat rest which houses a fire extinguisher and the other thing is a hatch lid from the front of the lower console.
