this listing is for 1 1989 Avon RHIB RIB Rigid Hull Inflatable Boat
U.S. Navy NAVSPECWAR boat
clear Texas title
5.4 meter/18' length
6.6' beam
660 lbs weight (w/o outboard)
foam filled sponsons, no air pressure required for operation.

the outboard can easilybe Texas titled with TP&W using form PWD-314 without having to go thru NAVSPECWAR. outboard appears to still be operational, no battery in boat or the time to check it out (reason for low price) it may need basic servicing.
trailer not included in 'sale', as it is not titled / serviceable only for 'yard use'
(currently no lights or license plate. I can giveaway the trailerfor free with purchase of boat, but cannot 'sell' it)
boats easily transferred to another trailer (approximately 30 minutes)
similar to current U.S.mil boat contractwith Zodiac for the Searider 5.4m that replaced the Avon Searider mil contract.
