Default Towing Dinghy?
(Bobsprit) scribbled thusly:
I see a lot of boats towing their dinks with motors on the back, but I've been
told this is poor practice. What's the deal? How many of you tow with motor on
the dinghy?

Of course you can tow a dinghy in flat water.
They only cause a problem in strong breeze when they may want to blow
over or in a sea when they'll surf.

This is an area where Navvie can justifiably claim some expertise.

The only time I've towed dinghies with a motor in place is on charters.
It's not a good practice, but if you're lazy and it's somebody elses
motor...
