Hi Andy. Thank you. One problem for me is storage of the boat when not in use. There's a long wait list for both the Bristol YC dinghy dock as well as the Town of Bristol, so I'll need to deflate it and take it home or store it aboard when its not needed, so I think the boat and motor your buddy has won't fit the bill for me. Maybe a good deal for someone else on the list?
