Additional Information:

We've owned this boat since 2012. It was made by Redbay in about 2000 (we're not sure of the exact date). We've used it mainly for diving locally and trips around Skye and the surrounds. Health problems and a move away from the area mean we're having to part with it.

Reliable engine will drive the RIB along at a good speed - we've managed 47 knots. There is an integral (between deck) 180 liter petrol tank. All of the electrics were replaced a couple of years ago. The deep V hull gives a comfortable ride even in a choppy sea. The tubes have no leaks, but are a little faded. The boat has a rack for dive cylinders. The sale will include a one year old 3.5hp Tohatsu long shaft outboard - hardy used, a boat cover, and various spares.

Although the sale includes the boat trailer (braked twin axle Indespension Roller Coaster) this is need of some work. It works as a launch and recovery platform, but is not suitable for long tows since the brakes are in need of repair/replacement.
