Broker's Comments

How would you like to own a piece of RIB history? This is the genuine article. One of two superbly constructed and fast aluminium RIB's that were used by the British Americas Cup Challenge Team. Wherever the yacht went the RIB's were right there. Manufactured in 2000 they were used in the UK until 2002 when they were re-engined, re-tubed and shipped to NZ for the event. I want this boat so bad, please Jacqui can I have it, please, please?
