Why are you considering replacing your
RIB???
My Avon 310RIB is one of the best dinghies I have seen. Sure, there are larger dinghies, but I don't see them being better. Many of my friends are into their 2 & 3rd
dinghy while I am still in my 1st.
Mine is 25 years old, has a built in
bilge that keeps our feet dry which is unusual in today's
dinghy products. This season, I had a small leak repaired and some other minor
repairs done for a total cost of $175. Before the
repairs, I had to repump it about every 3rd day. Now it has not been repumped all season.
But if you have your mind set on a new one, you really should not consider anything other than one made with hypalon. I doubt you will have any problem selling your
current 310.
Another suggestion is to keep it covered.
