SIB Mod Question

[Guest]

You guys think I can glue anything to the bottom of my sib to help cut waves easier. Im am thinking of some kind of bendable plastic or rubber that I can fold with the boat. Thinking of a Foldable RIB idea

Weimed, you should not throttle too much on choppy seas with top inflated tubes and keel, bad music for wife, she'll be the first to shout you out loud to throttle back inmediately, bad music for your kidneys and spine. Boaters tend to imagine that a rib riding on choppy water will cut waves as cheese, although a rigid keel cuts waves much cleaner than any inflatable keel, the hard bumping of tubes against water is enevitable. Would say it's slight less compared to a sib and that's while riding seating on tubes. Weimed time to move on to a nice rib...

Happy Boating

I Would love too! When I move out of my apartment I will. For now I need to figure out how to make a best performing Sib that can be rolled up.
