RIBs are awesome. I love that paint as well

We haven’t tested it, but we know, we KNOW. It’s exemplary. Again, no need to test it, we KNOW. What a completely pointless video.

Context is wrong here. We did test a full days shoot. However the sea was calm as surprisingly we cannot control the elements. However what we are saying is in every Ocke Mannerfelt design, every hull ever tested comes with great offshore capabilities and the design of this hull mirrors the same design attributes. We have reviewed, driven, raved countless Mannerfelt designs in various offshore conditions. Every hull delivers.

@@POWERBOATANDRIB Well, you may be banking on context but there’s no context in the video, you didn’t get any of your experience across. I’m sure you’ve got a wealth of knowledge on this manufacturer but as a casual viewer, I don’t know this, it just feels like watching someone shill a product, which happens all too often online. Can you really heap praise on a product if you’ve never tested its capabilities? I’m not sure. If I was pitching something to a client and telling them how great it performed under challenging conditions and they asked me exactly how I'd tested it and it turned out that I hadn’t… I think I’d look pretty silly and the client would be remiss for not pulling me up on that fact.

How do you propose we control the elements and conditions to test craft in every variety of conditions. What we are saying is based on the 5 hours of driving her (a real and factual test and review and the hundreds of additional hours onboard Ocke Mannerfelt craft) therefore we can legitimately praise the product, based on our real findings. Off-course we cannot test in every environment, that’s not commercially practical or possible; however we can base our findings on the use of this hull design on a variety of applications, sea states and tests we have conducted.
