I am in the dreaming/planning stage for a multi year cruise starting
in the Carribean and then heading to the South Pacific. The boat will
be a 45 to 50 ft sloop.
I am thinking about the tender/ dinghy.
Right now I think about an inflatable 10 to 12 ft with Hypalon tubes
and a fiberglass hard bottom.
As and outboard I am considering a small 3-4 HP 2 stroke lightweight
that is easy to lug around and a 15 to 20 HP 4 stroke for the times I
want to go serious distances and carry serious loads (Jugs of water or
fuel). Yamaha seems to be the favorite for off shore
Money is an issue, but I want to do the right thing.
I would like to hear comments/ exchange ideas.
