Caribe Tube Replacement

Is anyone aware of a place where you can order new tubes and glue for a Caribe RIB?

I have a tired old Caribe 9. I remember getting this done to a Novurania on a megayacht I was on, but that was a 25+ footer. Do they do them on the little Caribes, and is it economically worth it?

Thanks.

I don't know of a source. In Feb and March, I was looking to replace my RIB. Caribes were not available in the Caribbean. The company was months behind on orders. So my guess is that you will have a difficult time sourcing a new tube.

Check with one of the large dealers that do repairs. I know it's not near you, but this is a big one in FL. Service-Repair
