That boat needs new fuel tanks from what i saw. They were the origionals made out of wood and then glassed over. The rudder ports and shaft ports looked a little worn as well.

Did you look at her recently ? I understand it has had a total paint job as well, Is that the case?

MOST CERTAINLY YES!!!!

A Ricky boat is one of the most well built boats you will ever come across.

Any Ricky boat can handle a 26-28kt cruise no problem, the boat he builds now are not much different than the ones built in the 80's.

In my mind a Ricky boat is not only the best looking boat on the water(everything about'em is perfect, the lines, the tumblehome(sp), the flare, etc..) but also the best sea boat there is. A forty foot Ricky boat will out perform most 60ft production boats on a 6-9ft day.

In either case I don't see a 41'er for sale.
