Rybo - Rainbow Runner Molds

Rocketman:
A gentleman in south FL. had, and was building this boat. The last one I saw was as one of the relies said, built with a motor bracket. I have the Gent's business card at home somewhere and will be glad to give him a call. I will reply to your posted message when I am able to contact him.

Capt Bob, Rybo Runners were being built earlier this year up in New Jersey by Typhoon Marine, see typhoonmarine.com. The latest I heard just this month by word of mouth and hearing from them is that Jersey Cape, still in New Jersey, is now making them as their new boat, Little Devil 31. You can see this at jerseycape36.com. I heard from the president and he confirmed that in deed these are from the original Rybo Runner, but they have changed the hull to a deep V and removed the steps.

I hope the group doesn't mind, but I thought I would share that my Rybo Runner is for sale. Bad News, the boat sank in it's slip this past month due to heavy storms up north. Good News, other than it sinking no hull damage was done and the boat was raised quickly. But, will most likely need to be re-powered as I still had the OMC Sea Drives on the boat. You see, this is a 1983, hull 10 and was I was trying to keep her as original as possible. The boat was just completely re-wired over the past few years. Unfortunately I can't invest the time and money to redo her again. So please feel free to contact me if you are interested at jjz0512@aol.com

Still the best hull/boat I ever had!!

I own what I believe to be one of the few, if not the only Diesel Powered 30 Foot Rybo Runner available in Good to Very Good Condition. At 65 years of age, my Offshore days are limited, and my wife has asked me to be realistic and place this dear craft on the open market.

I have done extensive work on this boat in the last three years, including the total rebuild of the outdrive; which spins a 19x23 - 4 blade stainless prop and pushes this boat along at a steady 20 to 25 MPH depending on the sea state.
In addition, I have rebuilt with new parts, the front of the engine including all new pumps, and had the Turbo Rebuilt by a Diesel Engine Manufacturer.

This stepped hull craft could be used to build models after it and can be seen by request for email pictures. I am hoping that someone can help me to allow someone to acquire this gem.

I can be contacted at ken315@adelphia.net for further details.
