Ribcraft, a Marblehead boat builder, is expanding its line. They are launching their first new model in two years, the Express 32. They have been building boats in Marblehead for 14 years with a focus on rigid inflatable boats. The Express 32 debuted at the Newport Boat Show from September 15-18 and is their first standard model cabin boat. As Ribcraft’s president and owner, Brian Gray, said “The 32 has been in the works for quite a while, as there has been demand from existing customers and new prospects for a boat that can be used year-round or in all different weather conditions.”
The Express 32 is 32 feet long and with a cabin that can be heated or air-conditioned as needed.
on Saturday, October 17th you just might want to gather the kids together and enjoy the open house at the Marblehead Fire Department. They will be open for their annual open house from 10am to 2pm and everyone is invited to tour the apparatus floor and climb on the engines.
There will be a smoke house, a squire house, and a demonstration of how they use the Jaws of Life. The ladder truck will roll out its 100 foot rescue ladder as well. Certainly, officers will be on hand to answer questions and to participate in the demonstrations.
The event is open to all and free of charge. It will take place at One Ocean Avenue.
