We're just a week out from RIB Rendezvous 2026! Set to be one of the largest gatherings of RIB in the world, we're so pleased that this event has drawn such a following and sponsorship from renowned brands here in the UK. Tony and Jess Hill from @seafari_adventures_oban originally brought the idea of RIB Rendezvous to life, and without their early vision, this gathering wouldn't exist, so we thank them and look forward to welcoming them back as participants. @redbayboats @suzukimarinegb @pantaenius_uk @radical_marine @searegs.training @sbs_trailers @spinlockhq @deburghwine @getsavvynavvy --- RIB Rendezvous is a voluntary cruising-in-company muster.

Here is just a flavour of the towns, landscape and activity seen around the Isle of Mull! The island, the second largest in the Inner Hebrides, has over 300 miles of coastline and was originally shaped by intense volcanic activity. While the seas may be cool, they are nutrient-rich and attract an abundance of wildlife and marine life. This includes otters, dolphins and whales 🐋 The Isle of Mull provides a perfect place for cruising in company. @redbayboats @suzukimarinegb @pantaenius_uk @radical_marine @searegs.training @ipowerboat @sbs_trailers @spinlockhq @deburghwine @getsavvynavvy #RIBRendezvous26
