OK, I found several 10' Porta-botes for sale on Craigslist for
reasonable prices. Then I considered how to store them on my 28'
boat. Uh oh. 10' is longer than the cabin top and will cover all the
windows on one side. I could put it against the lifelines but then it
covers where the jib sheets go.
Maybe the Porta-bote is not the answer.
OTOH, I can get a cheap inflatable from West for about $400 and put a
cheapo e-bay 2 hp outboard on it.
Maybe there simply is not an answer but I do not believe that.


OTOH, I forgot that it includes the motor so there must be some way to
fit this aboard.



Can't you put the motor on the rail on the back? I've seen lots of people do
that.
