Summer is well and truly here for lovers of sports boats and all things watersports related, and to kick off your summer of powerboating in style here's your new issue of Sports Boat and RIB, the best magazine around for fans of sports boats, speed boats and RIBs.
To prove it we've got tests of three fabulous RIBs and sports boats including the astonishing Revenger 32 RIB, the X-Jet 140 jet boat and the Beneteau Flyer 650. But if it isn't new boats or boats for sale that you're after, how about some really cool kit. You can't fail to have heard about the new iPad, but just how useful is it for owners of sports boats? We've also been looking back at the best gadgets for boating from the past decade. Back on the water, where do you take your sports boat? We've all got our favourite hideaways, but in the latest issue of Sports Boat and RIB you can check out five of the best.
Enjoy the magazine and, of course, the summer on board your sports boat or RIB!
