Our Scow Racing/Sailing club is "thinking" Rescue Boat... We now have a fibre-glass fishing style boat with a 75HP on the back, cost $22,800.00 new, 3 years ago. A somewhat controversial purchase for our needs. In the 3 years it has been lowered into the water no more than 10 times, as we don't have a competent driver generally available... Lot of money that seems poorly invested... And, realistically, seldom needed, so there seems little urgency to ever launch it... Would make a good Ski-Boat for Family Day 
Now the question is put forward: Sell what we have and replace it with a good, used Inflatable that will better serve our purpose, & maybe put $$$s back in the pot...
Any experienced with inflatables for rescue of sailors on a small inland lake that seldom seas 2 ft waves... In distance that would seldom be as far as half a mile away...
Comments and suggestions will be appreciated. Roger
Our Committee Boat, pontoon type is occupied with Race details
