Not only do we retube Ribs, we carry out complete or partial refits.  We re-powered this Ribcraft with a Honda BF150, fitted a new console & seating, changing the configuration to suit the owners requirements, as well as fitting a new GPS and new synthetic teak deck to elevate the design.  The tubes are in sound condition so no need for a re-tube at this stage.  The owner now has a new looking Rib, for a fraction of the cost.  …

Rib Shop replaced the tubes on this Ribcraft 585 after the original tubes were damaged.
