My new ride

Post by Roy54 » 26 Jan 2019, 22:03

Well , I've done it! Today I put the deposit down on a 2012 Zodiac Pro 500 , Hypalon tubes , powered by a Yamaha 60 hp EFI motor with less than 130 hrs . I decided to get a rib after much consideration about how I would use my boat and the fact that my other half wouldn't feel happy perched atop an F rib. I would like to say a big," thank you" to Paul for giving the boat a thorough look over. Unfortunately the boat is stuck in the corner of a rather chaotic showroom at the moment so i won't pick it up just yet. Roll on the summer!!!!!!! Roy

No need for the thanks mate, always happy to help :thumbsup
I think you've got yourself a lovely setup there which should suit your 'needs' perfectly :clappy
The boat, engine and trailer are all in excellent condition and all the extra kit included is a bonus with huge cost savings 8-)
All you need is a life jacket and fuel and away you go :yay :drive
Paul :cheers
