Looked great and price was right so I bought it. Folds up deflated like you describe and is great for all those reasons. We run a 2.5 Tohatsu on it and that works well. If you look at this link was I think P220 or P240 Big in a store is much different than big when you are sitting in it. Is essentially a 2 person dingy. Is in fact about 7.5 feet but with the tubes extending past the transom is in fact smaller. Think a bit about the size you need when in it before you buy. If doing this again I would have purchased one 2 ft longer with an inflatable keel.

I think all of them should be that way now. Don't buy glued seams. I had one of those. The bottom fell out one day on the way to the beach. Nothing like zipping along in a bottomless donut with a 7.5 hp motor. Second, motors are nice but a pain to deal with. We just row most of the time now. The motor is in a storage shed in the backyard. Third, if I do go back to a motor, weight will be the primary consideration. Sure, it's fun to plane in our inflatable with the 7.5 hp but having to mount and dismount the 80 pound motor with a halyard is a pain. I can get to the beach just as well with a 2.5 lightweight motor. Think about it. You sailed to the anchorage at 6 knots. Why do you need to do 20 knots to get to the beach? -- Dennis C.
