sprucing up your tubes
If your RIB or inflatable tender tubes are looking dull, patchy or just plain tired it will most probably be sun damage to blame. Ultra violet light damages the colour pigment in the material and even just one season on the water will have an effect. In conjunction with manufacturers we have developed a very effective treatment service which will bring your tubes right back up to scratch. This involves a good deal of elbow grease, chemicals and finally the application of a UV protectorant which will preserve the tubes after the cleaning service.
This service costs £42 per metre (inc. VAT) for the full clean up and £12 per metre for an annual UV protectorant renewal once the full clean up has been done. Please let us know if you would like this done - we will contact owners of boats which might benefit from this as they come in to the yard for servicing.
rib charter
We will have 2 boats (both Ribeye 600 A Series) available next year. These boats will be available for charter through our Tucker's Boat Hire business. They are MCA coded and able to operate up to 20 miles from Salcombe. Bookings FOR NEXT YEAR are strong as this is an excellent way to enjoy a top quality RIB on your holiday without the cost of ownership. Learn more by contacting the office.
