     Hi,
     I'm the guy Peter was talking to about the
    Port-A-Boat in the first place.
     Remember me? Blind guy?
     I am not buying anything I have to assemble and
    disassemble. My concept is to store the inflatable
    (or regular aluminum) dinghy upside down on the
    bow when sailing. I'll lift it into place there
    with a 12 volt winch (like is mounted on truck
    bumpers). I will raise it out of the water each
    night when at anchor with another such winch
    mounted at the stern on davits of my own design.
    If it is an inflatable, it will be inflated once
    and never deflated (at least not on purpose)
    again.
     I am sure the Port-a-boats are fine and all that,
    I just am not interested.
     Sorry... :-)
