Hiya Riverdog, and :welcome to F-RibsAndSibs.com
Delighted you've found us, and yes - we're all about the boating. :drive
We seem to be getting somewhat of a name for the "forum that gets out on the water, instead of talking about it" :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
Keep your eye on the events page :geek: , we have a whole load of ideas for 2016, and a few are mentioning doing a couple more runs before the winter sets in.

There are a few Ribbers on here that have sibs too, It appears some of the rib guys had forgotten how much fun you can have in a sib for a tenner of fuel, so after a few trips out, they've purchased a sib to play out in too :drive
We actively encourage a jump between RHIB's (facebook group) and our forum, to all members of both pages. They're a cracking bunch of guys on there, Loads of knowledge that they're willing to share. You'll no doubt meet a few of them on a group meet sometime.
So we'll all look forward to meeting you :cheers

If there's anything we can help with, just yell " :help " For now, Enjoy the forum and feel free to join in with the banter :chat

Regards,
Martin
F-RibsAndSibs.Com.... :whistle
Because it's a big old WWworld out there :mrgreen:
