Zodiac Cadet 310 Rib Boat / Tender

Hi everyone. Lots of watchers but no bidders. Drop the price is the answer. My trusty Hypalon Zodiac Cadet 310 RIB has done me well. The big boat has gone and it's time for the tender to find a new home too and get out of the garage.

8 or 9 years ago it was purchased new from Zodiac for $10,000. It went straight to Stern First in Brookvale and had the fittings installed to attach to the big boat so it could be pulled up on its side at the back of the platform for transport and storage. A custom cover for it was also made at the same time that is included too. Only the fittings in the Zodiac are included as the parts on the big boat went with the big boat. I'm sure a call would get what ever is needed if that is how you wanted to store it again.

This is NOT the usual slatted floor Cadet. As you can see in the pictures, it has a solid fibreglass hull that the salesman told me would run without the tube quite fine, just a bit wet. Never tried it. There is a seat in the bow that has a hatch for an anchor or general storage. The center seat can attach at 2 points and of course it comes with the genuine oars.

Just realised they are not in the pictures but are included as is the pump and cover. It is capable of running with up to a 15 HP motor (See Compliance Plate photo). We powered it with an electric motor that was a lot safer for the kids to use. It is away being checked to see if it has got much life left in the battery and if so will be offered up at a later date and is NOT included in this auction. It has had 1 professional patch repair that can be seen on the upper right side picture just outboard of the seat.

(Rectangular patch) It can be picked up from the Northern Beaches or lower central coast in the Woy Woy area. It is advertised elsewhere at various clubs so may be sold before this Auction ends. If I get an offer from anywhere else I will check if the classifieds board offer is higher or not so bid based on that. I will let the top bidder know of a higher offer before I sell it elsewhere if that's possible. Good luck everyone.
