As it has only done 9 hours , did the sale fall through or is bear frightened of the water ?:)
But £87,500 is alot of dosh for a rib , even one of this size and spec !
He could allways put his name on the side and double the price .

I bet his mrs has told him he's got too many toys already
Cheers Rich , that does seem a good read .
As for the boat its a cracker , very safe for a day out with the family or a day trip to france and back -from Edinburgh !

I wonder if I could hide it behind my canoe and she'd never notice :)
Just noticed it's in the same colours as the rest of his Gerber range :)

Hahaha was just going to say the same! very tasty boat though.
Well i'm of out to buy some lottery tickets , you never know .
It would do the length of loch lomond in about 5 minutes , the down side it would cost £100 in fuel. but made up in grin factor .

Ok , after shewie pointed out that bear had a book out about the north west passage in a rib , the boat that i mentioned was for sale was going to be the the one for the expedition until they realised that i couldn't carry enough fuel between stops (1200miles) .
So they had to build a bigger rib with greater capacity .
