I understand that they have a good product, but that is the most gawd awful
web site going. It does not instill much confidence.

Why fiberglass then? What about the plastic versions... such as
'Walker Bay'. You could drag those over rough surfaces...matter of
fact, they come with a wheel under the transom for moving around on dry
land.



All this sounds good until the damned thing is running you down surfing in
simplest of waves. Let's quit screwing around and get a
Porta-Bote...folds
flat against the handrail, haul it up a halyard vertically up the mast
while you screw the seats into it, then push it over the handrail and pay
out the halyard, stern first. 5hp will plane it with 250#
aboard!...amazing.

Look down the page to see it stowed on a sailboat.
