Default Dinghy experiment #5

So, next experiment, an 8' Porta-Bote I am looking at on Craigslist
and will get a 2.5 hp motor for.

So far I have tried:

an 8' Nautilus dinghy--------Far too heavy. *Gave it away
a Sevylor inflatable. * It was crap
an inflatable kayak. *It was crap but wore it out.
the nesting 2-Paw-9 dinghy, home built. * * Snags sheets and does not
tow well. *Gave it away.


Why didn't you tie them altogether and make a raft?
