USED 2008 BALLISTIC 7.8M RIB WITH EVINRUDE 300HP ETEC OUTBOARD (RIGGED 2009)

This used 2008 Ballistic 7.8m RIB is powered by an Evinrude 300hp ETEC Outboard and was rigged in 2009.  It is a superb RIB with an exceptional pedigree. 

Get serious, get the Ballistic 7.8m. The jewel in the Ballistic portfolio, this RIB has an exceptional pedigree. Tried and tested by experienced powerboat racers in the 2003/2004 Trans Agulhas 1,000km event, a race around the unforgiving, shark infested waters of Cape Agulhas, off the southern most tip of South Africa, the 7.8m swept away the competition, taking three of the top five places at the finish.

Expertly constructed, with the unique Ballistic design, the 7.8m is fitted with jockey seats for you to carve up the waves in comfort, and comes with the standard top notch spec. And when you’re not testing just how fast and tough the 7.8m is, it boasts a great layout for gathering family and friends, with a picnic table and plenty of comfortable leisure seating. Whether you are beach hopping, snorkelling, sun bathing or skiing, no adventure is complete without the 7.8m.

King of the Ballistic RIBs, the 7.8m excels in challenging conditions. An extremely strong, no expenses spared build gives it the edge over the competition. As a result, the 7.8m is in demand across the world in environments where speed, reliability and style are paramount.

In Sierra Leone, the 7.8m is used by the fishery patrol service, chosen specifically for its speed and load carrying capabilities. In the Caribbean, the 7.8m is used by the rich and famous where its finesse, durability and top speeds make it the perfect plaything.

Hi all at JBT Marine,

A quick email to thank you all for such a brilliant service on both sales and after-sales. Even though i only bought a second hand rib the service i received was second to none.
Since the delivery of my 6.5 metre Ballistic, i have been on the water just 3 times because of this lovely weather we have been experiencing.
I and people i have had with me, cannot believe the handling of this rib in both flat and rough conditions. I have taken students out on a RYA powerboat course and all were surprised at, how easy it was to helm in planing and tight slow manoeuvring giving a dry smooth ride in all conditions.
Thank you for an excellent service and all the best in the future.

Regards
Kelvin
From Margate Kent.
