RE: Different New Dinghy Thread

Eric,
I'm with you.
I would like a traditional clinker timber dinghy but too heavy (and not fast enough)
I have a 12 ft tinny with aerofloats + 15 hp.
Coral doesn't rip/tear it, crocks don't bite it in half, strong as an ox and reasonably light.
fast enough to get out and go fishing and enough room to carry the stores for when we have to go ashore shopping.
I think a little rubber thing with 2 hp would drive me nuts.

Benn
