Not necessarily.* Depends on the design.* There are hardshell dinghies that have rubber bumper strips all around them.* Even the cheap Livingston has that, or used to.* I'm not familiar with the ones made by the new owner.** We've had our Livingston whack into the side of the boat on occasion and there were no marks or scratches or dings.* Hitting the motor against the boat would be a different story.
