Temporary Toy whilst waiting for my new rib

This is what I have bought for a toy to play with whilst I am without a rib until my new Parker 900 Baltic arrives. Should be a load of fun.

Ceasar Thunderbolt 5.3m long with a 90 Etec on the back, should be up and ready 1st week of June. Had to be all yellow of course!!

Might be a silly question but are you going to get that coded?

Looks like cracking fun and scary fast, looks the kind of thing that you would flip though at silly speeds?

Nice set of Cobra buckets in it too
Might be worth getting it sign written to promote your charter business Richard, being Yellow and distinctive should be a good bit of free advertising.

interesting looking dingy

Now what name - it looks like two 5 mtr bananas side by side ... a double yellow banana .

nice one nauti

could put it under the versa dock to give it more buoyancy and hide it so no one can laught at it.

nauti bananas springs to mind
