What's the best rigid dinghy

I am not too keen of inflatable dinghies. My 7'-0" wooden sabot pram has
served me well for more then 20 years. Now it is the time to replace
it. As
a replacement I looked at the Walker Bay 8'-0" and 10'-0" dinghies. The
8'-0" weight is 76 pounds but the 10'-0" is 121 pounds. Price wise
the 10
foot is listed at $1400.00 CAD plus 15% taxes the walks away price is
$1600.00 CAD. I wonder if there is something better on the market
that is
can be towed easily behinds a sailboat and price more reasonability
Without question the Fatty Knees, a Lyle Hess design.
Considerably more than $1,400.00; however.
I have an 8' Fatty Knees, which I like a lot. However, I miss my 10'
Trinka (which was too big for the new boat).
