Hi Eric,

Yup, it's kinda fugly, but we bought it for its utilitarian workhorse assets, not as an ego stroking marina head turner

I'm using the shove the dinghy out, and chuck the anchor & chain out further technique. This means tying up at the corner of beaches where the bottom drops away faster, but that's okay for now. There's no suitable area to use the shove & jerk trick as everything is rounded and slippery on the Whaly. Contemplating that mega-bungee cord idea as it looks like it'll ensure the Whaly goes further out when there's an outboard to protect.

As for the Bullfrog...how much are they?
