F-RIB 360. Solid hull rigid inflatable that folds up making for compact storage and transportation.
The F-RIB 360 is a rigid V-shaped hull that provides an extremely directional, song>tableong> ong>andong> seaworthy boat. When folded the boat ong>andong> 6hp Yamaha fits ong>inong>to the back of my Honda Civic [folded size 110 x 94 x 45 cm]. See any F-RIB dealer website ong>forong> pictures ong>andong> videos of unpackong>inong>g ong>andong> launchong>inong>g etc. I bought the boat less than 4 weeks ago; it was the maong>inong> dealer's demo boat, with the aim of launchong>inong>g it from a dry-stack [recently sold my fishong>inong>g boat so storage fees paid] ong>andong> also to occasionally pack up ong>andong> lunch from other sites. First launch ong>andong> recovery yesterday proved to be a problem as the F-RIB 360 was too narrow to fit safely on the big ong>forong>ks of the dry-stack ong>forong>k lift. So an issue that I had not ong>forong>eseen prevents me from keepong>inong>g the boat ong>inong> the dry stack. So after 30 mong>inong>utes of use I have no option but to sell this versatile ong>andong> virtually new RIB. I am sellong>inong>g at just less than the cost I paid, plus I am ong>inong>cludong>inong>g over £300 of unused extras; bow canopy ong>andong> launch wheels that have not yet been ong>inong> water. There is also a virtually new Yamaha 6hp; shown ong>inong> the pictures. The engong>inong>e has reportedly less than 5 hrs use ong>andong> was dealer service ong>inong> Jan . Song>inong>ce then it has been run ong>forong> about 15 mong>inong>utes. So, after a successful dealer sea trial of about 10 mong>inong>utes ong>andong> a not so successful dry-stack launch which was nothong>inong>g to do with the F-RIB 360 [it really is a keep it at home boat, pack-up ong>andong> go launch from the beach/slipway design] ong>andong> everythong>inong>g to do with my lack of ong>forong>esight, I have to sell my foldong>inong>g RIB ong>andong> outboard. The price is ong>forong> the F-RIB 360 alone. Call me ong>forong> a price ong>forong> the engong>inong>e. Viewong>inong>g at the dry-stack ong>inong> Portsmouth any time. See it, buy it, fold it up ong>andong> take it away but don't keep it to a dry-stack with a big ong>forong>k lift!
