Tender: inflatable or folding?

I own a 10''4" Pota-Bote and the answer is YES, it can be towed by a sailboat at about 7 knots.

The method used is to have the painter length set for the boat to ride the wake-crest, and not the wake-trough.

BTW, I''ve seen one other sailboat towing their Porta-Bote, and they seemed to be having no problems with it. ;^)
