I spent many months researching ribs and wanted certain things. Firstly reliability and a rib that had seen little freshwater only use with a full service history and looked after, ease of launch and economical with a good power ratio. I found this 2019 model Highfield 380 deluxe last year with the intention of cove exploring in Cornwall but due to circumstances beyond my control I have not used it and for the foreseeable future will be unable to hence the very regrettable sale.The rib is in immaculate condition with no repairs or damage. The bottom and deck (fully welded seams) is aluminium in grey and also unmarked.It has never seen salt water and only used on lake Windermere as a tender to a large boat. The20HP Honda 4 stroke engine is fully serviced with a full service history and seen only 20 hours of use with all booklets and service manuals etc.It has electric start and Honda running gear including power trim/tilt and starts on the first turn of the key.The seat configuration enables the driver to sit or stand and the rib will comfortably sit 6 people though rated for 7Tender brackets (Hang it anywhere)Anti slip aflooringRemovable mid seat.It also has a brand new six fishing rod holder that has not been fitted.XL fuel tank.High power pumpClip in oars.Flush kitHighfield waterproof carryall.Highfield repair kit should you ever need it.3.8 metres so fits in the garage.Plenty of lockers with anchor and side buoys to stop the sides from scratching when docking.It comes with an SBS galvanised rollercoaster trailer that would make it easy to launch from a beach.A full cover including full engine cover and separate prop cover for towing or winter storage.All in all this is a super set up and ready to just fuel up and go.A lovely looking rib that ticked all of my boxes and I really will be sad to see it go.I could possibly be interested in a part exchange for a caravan, money either way. Payment upon collection only via bank transfer or cash. It can be viewed in Epsom Surrey and for further information please call. 07759 480911Would you really want a rib that has been used in salt water and not knowing that it had been properly flushed after each outing and concerned about reliability ? I didn’t, but also knowing most ribs are for salt water use this was a rare find indeed.
