Searching for B class, sea ready Rib (Highfield Patrol, Narwhal WB 550 or similar...)

[BalticRib]

Hello All,

Looking to buy a durable "working horse" - a solid RIB in the 5.0–5.5 meter range for Baltic Sea conditions. No PVC weekend boats — safe, and proven offshore (CE, B only).

Valiant DR 520, Narwhal WB 550, Highfield Patrol 540, Zodiac Pro 550, or similar class.

Budget 10K eur.
Transport? One step at a time — first, find the boat. Then we’ll see if it fits in the back of my dreams.

Not sure any of the ribs you list will be class b in fact I would be very surprised if any 5 meter Rib would get a class b certificate

I have to agree, none of those would be on my list of solid workhorse boats. I'd class those as weekend leisure craft

"no pvc weekend boats "
I thought it was a wind up ! There's not a hypalon choice there ?

Could be! a pal was telling last night about a 2012 585 his pal had for sale for around 7.5k & my ears pricked up until he showed me a picture & it had a single jockey console & a 125 optimax & I immediately lost interest
I could get more details if it was any interest to the op, I'd kinda forgotten about this thread at the time.

That's a long way off it's value. Needs to be around £20k

Aye! But the OP only has €10k to spend, hence my comment.
