David,
I have been boating all my life. As a kid we were on the boat every weekend from Friday night to Sunday night.Back then boat people took in the whole experience of boating. I mean swimming,fishing,exploring islands,ect.Now a days it seem that most people want to visit their boat for a couple of hours and then do something else.I don't think your question is in the wrong place since it has to do with a tender for your O'Day.Wish I had an answer for your question but I can't help.r.w.landau
