Kitten did explain it in detail but I'm hopelessly thick and will definitely relay the wrong info so help out here Kitten and Cookee...

K4+ RIB
All new boat although we have now built three of them and number four has just been started. Console and seats are all our own moulds too. The show boat literally went on the water early Saturday morning and then went straight to the show.
Really pleased with all about it and handling / performance were excellent for being straight out of the box. Will be doing some prop work in the next week or two and getting all fully dialed in.
Unfortunately had to run the engine in over the weekend so were restricted on speed a little. However by Sunday night had her moving pretty quick - certainly much better than others of similar size!
Got quite a few demo's lined up so sure the boat will be seen on the Solent quite a lot this year. Also hope to do the next poker run (July ??)
great to meet all sorts of people over the weekend and put some faces to names!

Hi Adam,
Many thanks for the demo - the missus and me were the last to demo it.
It was certainly the best one we demoed and now has me scratching my head. We had settled on another but ya put the cat among the pigeons
Apart from dosh the only negative was the missus had a little sore lower back afterwards from the seats.
I on the other hand am still smiling
Paul

Too much info O hubby of mine
Just unused to the bucket seat position on a RIB. More used to standing up when it hits a wave to take the impact on the pins ...
So just lack of experience on my part. The boat is great, was well presented & Adam & partner very courteous. Everyone I've heard has spoken well of both designer and boat.
