I know there are dozens of folding dinghy designs around but few look much
like a real boat. The exceptions seem to be the Seahopper, Stowaway and,
now, the Flapdoodle. The idea of a folding dinghy has a certain appeal,
although I'm not sure that a flat package is really much easier to car top
than a conventional dinghy. However, it would be a lot easier to stow on
board my 31' boat.

Does anyone have experience of building or sailing these designs, especially
Bill's DIY Flapdoodle?

Any advice welcome.
John.
