Broker's Comments

The current business owner of this boat has recovered the input tax on the purchase. Therefore this boat will be sold on a normal VAT invoice with 20% VAT charged on the final selling price.

Ribcraft build solid, hardwearing boats which successfully serve a variety of purposes in both the commercial and leisure sides of boating. From fast rescue craft to superyacht tenders and anything in between

The 7.8m tubes are Hypalon on the outside with Neoprene on the inside (two layers of each), reinforced with a polyester mesh in between. The hull is GRP and has very sharp forward sections transitioning to 24 degrees of deadrise aft for maximum comfort in sea. Running strakes deflect spray and add lift so the ride should be dry

This particular RIB has been working as a support boat for an events company, always driven by a commercial skipper and serviced and maintained to be used whenever required. She had a new engine in 2014 and has a yard trolley which could come with if required but no trailer.

The tubes do require some attention as does the seat upholstery however she appears sound and solid as you would expect from a Ribcraft
