Unsure where it will be kept. At home in Cheshire if could be trailered (wife has RR sport Diesel) or dry berthed somewhere
Magnum just spotted this at the beginning of your thread I think your going to need something bigger than a RELIANT ROBIN if your going to tow a rib of that size

Apparently the Reliant Robin sport diesel shares the same engine as the Belle cement mixer. She's a twin cylinder air cooled unit with emergency hand start capability.

Not all Reliant Robins are created equal.
Take my stretched example for instance.

Anyway, I'm travelling down next week to speak to Revenger and to have a sea trial in a 29 inboard (no outboard models available). Need to visit at least one other manufacturer with something similar. Who should it be?

if you can stretch to Devon Ribcraft down here Ocean and Gemini.
this is presuming that Pascoes, Scorpion and Phantom Evo have been ruled out

Made by Neil Holmes, contact details and a few pictures here at his powerboat school:
http://www.powerboatcentre.com
Very highly regarded boats, do a search on rib net, they have been discussed before in several threads.

After some careful consideration I've decided to look at the SR9 too. They are close to Revenger so it would be a shame not to.
