Hi, just a suggestion, but it you've mentioned a load of brands with no real indication of what type of rib you're after. Within those brands you've covered all sorts of styles and variations, not to mention values. Your guide price would buy you a new Ribeye or a not very new Revenger.
Are you sure you want a rib?
It may help to list your requirements and let the guys on this site make some suggestions which may help refine your search.

Reality is there will always be an element of compromise between comfort / functionality/ seakeeping etc.

The basic requirement is for a rib that will take seven people including a 4 year old and a 7 year old in safety , so looking for a rear bench seat with 4 jockeys ideally in a 7+ m boat.

It will get a mix of use from water taxi as a father of 2 boys in to sailing and windsurfing to day boat with 4 children beach hopping in the summer. The posting was to see what sort of ribs were available in my price range that could accomodate the above.
