Cheap new boats
 
A while back someone couldn't believe you could buy a dinghy for $195.00
back in the '60s.

They are a little more now... but if you adjusted for inflation over the
last 45 years.....

You must understand that with smallboats like this, the most expensive
part of the build is legal flotation. Less than ten years ago I sold
dingies for the same price, and mine met USCG requirements for boats
built or sold in the US. If someone gets hurt in this guys boat, he is
toast, he is negligent and irresponsible if he sells his boats as they
are pictured here, reguardless of the local laws... and certainly in
the US. Th ebiggest problem is lot's of times small cheap boats like
this are bought for kids..

Hey, I'm just sayin'.
