Ribcraft 4.8

Looking for a Ribcraft 4.8
Budget flexible. Happy to look at an older boat with a view to updating as long as the price reflects this.
Equally budget available for a lightly used recent boat with a good spec.
What’s out there?
PM me if you have something.

Will have a Ribtec 585 for sale with a 100hp Yamaha once new boat found - opportunity to trade up?

This has just been posted to ebay classifieds. Just been retubed.

As usual, check it’s not a scam before moving any money, view in person once lockdown is over etc...

Have you looked on the facebook Ribcraft Owners Group? There is a mate of mine who is selling his 4.8m after moving up to a 6.8m

Yes, that one's gorgeous - but he's after £11k for it I think.

Yes, that popped up. £9k with an 18 year old engine.

I should have bought the one identical to that one I saw in the summer for £5k!

Slight change of plan. The 585 is out of action with a poorly engine, so reassessing.
