Riba builds the FATRI BV 1200 L. According to the available register data, the vehicle dates from 1973. Dimensions: 1,980 mm wide. Its kerb weight comes to 340 kg. Fully loaded, it may not exceed 1,200 kg. It reaches up to 100 km/h. According to the Dutch vehicle register, one example of this model is on record.

Riba – other boat trailers: the collective page of trailers outside the named ranges, with the BV, BT and BU codes and size classes from 850 to 2600, 220 kg to 2.3 tonnes unladen weight

This page gathers Riba trailers the register could not assign to a named range – mostly light boat and leisure trailers, as the model name BOOTTRAILER (boat trailer) in the register shows. The type codes BV, BT and BU at Riba presumably denote boat-trailer ranges with different running gear, the following four-digit number (850 to 2600) roughly denoting, by the maker's logic, the load capacity in kilograms; more precise company details cannot be reliably derived from the register.

The register lists here 189 versions with unladen weights from 220 to 2,290 kg, gross weights from 850 to 5,200 kg and widths from 1,550 to 2,550 mm; lengths are recorded for only part of the models.

Boat trailers such as Riba's serve the leisure and watersports market, standing there alongside specialist suppliers such as Marlin and Boatmate for the road transport of motor and sailing boats up to the medium size class.

On used boat trailers, corrosion on the frame and axle matters above all (particularly at risk from contact with salt and fresh water when launching), along with the condition of the rollers or bunks, wheel bearings and brakes, and the lighting system, which is vulnerable with frequent water contact; a galvanised or stainless frame and regularly greased bearings are decisive checkpoints on viewing.

What to check before buying

  • Search the frame and welds at the axle mounts — that is where cracks start.
  • Check the brakes and the last inspection in the papers.
  • Work the gross weight against the towing vehicle before buying.
  • Compare the chassis number with the papers.
  • Look at the floor, cover or body from the inside — rust does not show from outside.
