Would you be breaking it down or leaving setup? I've seen different feedback about the two and confused. Some people have said keep it setup on trailer so tubes are not folded in bag. Others have said keeping floor setup will trap sand and turn into sandpaper. Any thoughts?
Lots of things I haven't thought of prior to buying!
Converted Frib into remote steering?

Re: Converted Frib into remote steering?
Well ill likely leave mine set up but not in its resting position as i semi fold my FRIB up when storing it in the garage on the trailer. The idea for me is to be able to move the flooring and steering closer to the motor when storing it and then simply moving it back into place when i inflate fully for use.
Seeing as lockdown is easing a lot, ill be going out to find parts and making a floor to start with. Ive been thinking of using the old floor board of my old Zodiac.

Hi Shaun,
Are you still planning to fit remote steering to your f-rib 430? Also how did f-rib deal with the damage caused by the bent locating bolt and cracks in the fibreglass?
