What is folks opinion w.r.t RIB inflatables for this use? As I said,
I've got real doubts about the durability of one used on our rocky

They take a licking and keep on ticking.

Can I assume that the wooden flat bottom skiff I suggest, is not
something you would consider? Wood it be better if it had a modified
vee or are there other reasons... I think the Brockway type skiff
(dry weight 250) with the tiller 25 would suit his needs and might
even be able to fit close to his budget too.

I dunno - rock beach, wood boat.

Hey, I suppose, but you'd have to really build up the bottom and
protect it with something.

Let's take your Brockway and run it up on Gould Island in Narragansett
Bay and see what happens. :)

Hmmm - on second thought...maybe not. :)

Don't they affix a copper runner on the wood keel to help it last?
