Hard Dinghy

[All U Get]

Hi all,

What are these hard dinghies worth? This one is 9 foot long and 4 foot wide and made of fiberglass. We saw a few while traveling south. Cleaning out the garage. :Liar:

Ask $700? Probably a good tender to go to one's moored boat and back. A bit big and clunky to be a towable dink or haul-able to the deck. What does it weigh?

I can pick up one end at a time and it seems lighter than the Brigg RIB we use. A good question would be how to lift it.

The hard dink builder in Maine is Puffin. Roger has an 8-1/2 footer, I believe, and tows it everywhere. My 9-1/2' strip-built/glass dink tows like a dream, & rides fine in davits, but it doesn't weigh much more than 100 lbs. That's the big question.
If you need or want to row much, the hard boat will be easier to deal with. Pleasant even...
