I forgot to mention, the 700 also has the option of a 2 berth cuddy cabin. & all internal cockpit is Gelcoat finished & anti-slip surface.

So why not just splash an existing boat and save all that trouble!!

Because thats what people have been doing for many years hence there isnt really anything new in the sportboat/pleasure boat market which IMHO is why the Rib market is doing well.
I have been popping into Gavs on a regular basis and I can really see the effort that goes into building a plug! Its a massive undertaking and must be very stressful. Now I have seen for myself what it takes to make boat plug I firmly believe that all splashers should be strung up by their bollocks!

Every single time I have popped round to Gav's to see him working on the boat, he has given me directions to a pub, where he is drinking, so I dont see much work going on. In fact I have never seen him working on the boat....

The screen is a moulding from the 600xs, purely used as a basis to work from. The end screen will look a lot different!

Its part of the build up of the moulded screen, there will be a section in the middle of the screen that will be wider with anti-slip moulded into it to act as a step. Also the centre cosole will have a couple of steps in also, there will also be a foothold in the screen itself making access to the bow very easy and safer.

i havent seen the stingray 23, is it a UK built boat?
We have plans to do a sterndrive version later in the year, but at the moment only an O/B version is available, initial calculations of speed are 65mph with a standard 200HP O/B, this may change a little upon testing as its very difficult to work out how much of a difference the Hull notch will make...
