Scroll down to the bottom of the page and watch the video. I'm trying
to figure out if it could be scaled up to 18 feet or so and
reassembled in the water.


I don't know about that, but it sure is a pretty little boat. I prefer
the one that doesn't come apart in the middle. I see the site has kits.
I might buy a kit. Thanks!

We have room to store a 12 to 13 foot dinghy on top of the aft cabin
and use an electric hoist to launch it. Weight is an issue, maybe
400 to 500 lbs tops including outboard, fuel, anchor,etc. It looks
like that Chesapeake dinghy separates into roughly 1/3 and 2/3rds of
its length so I'm thinking 18 ft overall might be doable which is a
nice size. I'd have to launch it in pieces and reassemble in the
water however.

Well, as a teacher of non-math/science-based liberal arts, my
professorial opinion is that treading water while wrestling 12' and 6'
boat sections together that also have to be bolted might be a heck of a
lot to handle without drowning in the process. If you were successful,
though, it would make a terrific video. I'd buy a copy.

Curious, though, as to why you need an 18' semi-portable boat?

There are these new-fangled devices called life jackets and buoyancy
compensators that would help.

Heh, need is relative. :-)

There are a lot of guys down in the Bahamas towing 30 ft offshore
center consoles for use as a dinghy. Of course they are using them
for some serious fishing also.

From an assembly standpoint I'm thinking that as long as both halves
have full flotation and some semblence of watertight integrity, that
you could launch them as two seperate boats and then bolt them up in
the water without even getting your feet wet.

It could easily be scaled up... Who is gonna' build it, you?

Sure, why not?

I've rebuilt and repaired quite a few boats but never done a whole one
from scratch. Tools are not a problem and I've got lots of time and
good weather most of the time. Space is more of an issue but could do
it in the driveway, down on the dock or on the back patio.

The guy at the Windows 7 Home Premium Generator store just told me Win 7 Home Basic Starter is easier to use and it Windows 7 Starter 32 Bit Key you how to use the programs, and it's Windows 7 Enterprise Serial complicated.In what way is it less complicated to use than Microsoft Windows 7 64bit Key? I still don't get the difference.

Yikes! Assemble in the water?

13 ft. Whaler is 320 lbs dry without motor. 450-475 with a motor.
