Thank you all. Have to say it was the best birthday I have had in years.

As for boat. Got in water last weekend for a trial. Rack goes in it tomorrow night. It and a couple of Rebreather's (one meg and one sports kiss) go diving saturday.

The azi is currently in pieces so I'm on OC for weekend but thinking about getting it's conversion finished now I have the boat

Nice Rebreather, Matty, when you have the rack in take a picture or two.
Can't remember seing a RIB out here rugged for diving.

You have never tried. Another brisbane RIB did a dive to 30 m some time ago with it's owner. At the end of the dive it surfaced with a rather large motor launch tied to the bottom. RIB's make the best large lift bags you have ever seen. This one had only a tiller outboard and removalble tank fitted, so it go the water tipped out and everything put back in and off to work.
