Looks like it would be hard to make it work on Froggy's small boat..
Thanks, Scotty.

I gave brief consideration to electric bicycles but decided they are
not worth it. *If I was 15 yrs younger, I'd seriously consider simply
using a road bicycle as I used to ride 40 miles without much thought
at all. *At age 53, enough wrist and knee problems to preclude much

Yes, a 28' boat does not have much on-deck space for anything besides
a dinghy and I am looking into getting rid of that .

Have you thought of a Porta-bot type dinghy? You can build one in an
afternoon
or two, with a couple of pieces of 6mm, some canvas, and some
adhesives. A
typical folding boat can fold down to about 4" thick by say, 2' by 10'
and can
lay right up against a wall or lay on a roof very easily. I think I
have plans
for one somewhere...

First you suggest he carry a motorcycle that won't fit on his boat and
would be difficult to get on and off of the boat, and now you suggest a
10' long chunkajunk that won't easily fit on his boat, either?

D'oh.

You came back from vacation meaner and uglier than before you left.
Musta been some vacation.

Sobering up is a bitch.

I have given serious consideration to a 10' Porta-bote and am about
ready to order one. Being basically cheap, that $1500 price tag
repels me. Making a folding dinghy is a possibility but will not
happen anytime soon.

For what they are, and I have seen several used, they seem to be a great tool
if it's the trade-off you need.
