... Inflatables: West Marine's "Inflatable Boats" BoatU.S.'s "Inflatable Boats" SailNet's "Inflatable Boats Buying Guide" Bill Springer's "Inflatable dinghies" Lightweight RIBs (Apex, Aria, Zodiac) reviewed in 7/15/2000 issue of Practical Sailor neck Inflatables tested in 12/2000 issue of Practical Sailor RIB reviews in Practical Sailor's 1999 Gear-Buying Guide. Specs: Type (RIB, inflatable floor, removable floor, RID, etc). Price. Length (some dinghy-docks say maximum length is 12 feet). Tube material (PVC, neck Hypalon, etc). Tube diameter. Number of tubes. Material construction (overlapped joints neck better than butt-joints). Weight. Max HP. Max capacity. Hoisting points. Pump. Oarlocks ? Hard dinghy can capsize when getting in (from boat, dock, swimming); an inflatable is better. Inflatables are very hard to row: no keel, lots of windage, high freeboard. Paddling while sitting on the bow works somewhat. A moderate-sized (3 inch ?) tear or hole will deflate and sink an inflatable surprisingly quickly.
