Heck, I'm convinced. If I want to buy a boat to drag down the road
without benefit of a trailer, it will be Triumph.

Funny how they have 6-7 "test" videos, and not one of the tests
involves actual use of the boat in the water......

Every play Whiffle ball? One of those plastic baseball and bat combos?
Take a close look a a Roplene boat and draw your own conclusions. I
think it's a great way to build a cheap sailing dinghy, etc....but I'm
not yet sold on the concept for full size boats.

They have a ton of problems with warping in heat and they look like ****
after a year (the pick up scratchs very easy, just look at the bat
after it hits the plastic ball). The only plus I know of is they are
supposed to be cheap.
