Anyone used a porta-bote as a dinghy? There is an 8' one for sale on ebay here in Southern CA. I would either put my Nissan 8 HP on it or sell the 8 HP and get a smaller OB.

Also on ebay is 1997 Honda 8 HP 4 stroke long shaft, used only in fresh water, located in New Jersey, if anyone is looking for a motor (I've got mine). Currently at $910.

On my recent trip to the keys I met a guy who uses his porta boat as a dingy, and he says he loves it. It looks pretty good too. I wonder about storing it on a C25. He was sailing a 35 footer so he had more room.
