I also don't want to buy something and then think ' I wish I got something a bit bigger'.
Good luck with that.... :rofl

Finding the right thing is hard work, I went for the Frib purely as I like to take the boat and caravan.. thats something you cant do with a rib unless you take two vehicles.
The Frib - it suits my needs perfect at the moment, versatility, stability and performance.. bang it in the boot or shove it on the trailer for ease.

Yep I completely understand that , and I won't be able to have that versatility , which I know when I first started looking was something I wanted. But for me the logistics of getting an F rib and outboard plus all the other gear away in the caravan with the family and dogs is maybe a step to far . Add to that , we generally use caravan club sites and having a boat on your pitch is probably against the rules.! " Tut Tut" . I think if I had 1 dog I may have gotten the F rib , but 3 is at times a nightmare. All I need to do now is get Mrs N to tow the boat , or maybe as Pete suggested unexpectedly stumble across a sib !! :D :clappy :clappy :clappy

Cracking ribs are the pro 500, I looked at getting one a while back, but the deal against my bow rider didn’t work, I’m sure you will have lots of fun on that 👍
