After the failed dinghy purchase, we were in search of a new dinghy. The boat show didn’t turn up any leads and there was a shortage of them due to the hurricane.

Our only option was to purchase new. We found an 11 foot RIB with 40 HP engine. It was delivered within the week and arrived just in time. Boris and Matt picked it up from the boat launch at night and had to drive 7 miles in the cold dark evening to our boat.

Everything worked perfectly and she’s powerful enough to support our family.

Today Boris installed the mounting system onto our swim platform to support the dinghy and we are now ready to rock and roll. My next endeavor is trying to figure out how to keep her clean and white.
