portaboat
I''ve had a 10''6" Porta-Bote for three years. I like the fact it''s vitrually indistructable, can be stored neatly in a space that equals its length and heigt plus 4" for width, takes about 10 minutes to put together (and about 5 minutes to take apart), has a large area for gear, can carry three adults, is easy to row, and will easily plane with a 4HP engine. The down sides are: it''s not easy to get in and out of (especially if you''re coming in from the water), and it feels soft underfoot. BTW, another plus is its relatively low cost. In my case, I paid less for my new Porta-bote with a 4HP motor than I would have paid for an inflatable without a motor.
