Suggest you drill two holes behind and lower than the original grommet holes so the bow lifts higher. Most owners like the way it tows, now. A couple of years ago we changed the position of the grommet holes as described. That corrected any previous towing problems.
Owners also like the fact that if you hit a sharp rock that would explode an inflatable, you'll get a scratch on Portaboat.

3. I do like its free board and stability.
All things considered, I would revert to a large pontoon rubber boat if I were to buy a new tender. |
