Broker Remarks
Exceptional Condition – Re-tubed in 2021 – Comprehensive Service History
We are delighted to offer this exceptionally well-presented Ribeye 550, which is a particularly good example of this popular and versatile RIB.
One of the major benefits of this boat is that she has been re-tubed with hypalon impression in 2021, giving her the fresh, modern appearance you would normally associate with a considerably newer RIB. The tubes present exceptionally well and, combined with the overall condition of the boat having never been anti fouled make her stand out from many RIBs of a similar age.
She has also benefited from significant investment and careful ownership, including a new fuel tank fitted in 2023 and an excellent, comprehensive service history for the Yamaha F100 DETL outboard, which currently shows just 321 hours.
The Yamaha F100 provides an excellent balance of performance and economy for the Ribeye 550, while the specification includes Garmin GPS/plotter, Garmin VHF, Yamaha multifunction displays, Fusion stereo, teak decking, A-frame with ski eye, boarding platform with folding ladder and mooring cover.
She is supplied with a Rollerglide road trailer, making her particularly versatile and allowing her to be easily transported and stored ashore when not in use.
The combination of the 2021 re-tube, 2023 fuel tank, excellent service history and very good overall presentation makes this a particularly attractive proposition for anyone looking for a quality 5.5m RIB without the expense of buying a much newer boat.
She is ready to enjoy for the remainder of the season and represents an excellent opportunity to acquire a well-maintained Ribeye 550 with the major areas of age-related expenditure already addressed.
Viewing is highly recommended.
