Re: Stus-List Input on inflatable dinghy purchase

I'm at the age where motor light-weight is more important to me than dink speed. I picked up two used Johnson/Evinrude 2 cycle 1.2HP(!) motors (~$300 each, often advertised as 2HP), and love the 28 lbs lift up to the rail. They're fast enough for patient dinking on a 10" inflatable and an 8'

Bob, I used to have a 35-3, and had some "davits lite", whereby the side tube of the dinghy rested on some curved brackets that were attached by u-bolts to the stern rails.  We had a 9' WM wood floor / inflatable keel on them.  I no longer have the boat, but do have the brackets,  if they are

I have a West Marine RU 260 Inflatable Sport Dinghy and a Nissan 2.5 hp outboard. They are both light and easily lifted onto the boat deck and outboard mount. The dinghy fits fine on the deck of my 33-2. We cruise on Lake Ontario and generally only use it for short trips in harbor or at anchor,

Re: Stus-List Input on inflatable dinghy purchase

Every dinghy is a compromise, but IMO an 8' - 6" with inflatable floor and keel and 2-3.5 hp is the best of all worlds. You will appreciate the smaller / lighter engine every time you have to put it on or take if off the boat. We have a 4hp 2-stroke, which is much lighter than a 4hp 4-stroke, and
