Hi all - I am new to RIBs and have just got my level 2 powerboat qualification and wondered if anyone knows of anywhere in Scotland I can go and hire a powerboat for the day e.g Loch Lomond etc???

Try here :-

http://www.lochaberwatersports.co.uk/

This is in a beautiful spot at Glencoe, the owner is Alec Blanc, a great guy, we have used him for courses. The centre is attached to a nice hotel, with B&B's around if that is what you prefer. Just a few miles from Fort William at Ballachulish on Loch Linnhe.

His rib can be seen on the site.

Hope this helps.

You could try the Scottish National Watersports Centre on the Isle of Cumbrae (Clyde). I know that they hire Ribs to clubs etc.
