need a small rowboat

bluewater sailor · 07-28-2004, 12:27 PM

does anyone know where I can find a small, used, lightweight rowboat that I can use as a tender for my sailboat? Fiberglass is preferable, but wood will suffice. Ideally, it should be eight to ten feet in length.

I've got two: one 7-foot, one 9-foot.

Either one, cheap. E-mail me with your telephone number.

Editing here: To reduce drag while sailing, you can lift the bow of the inflatable and tow it on its sponsons.

(Something you can't do with a rowboat unless you bring it aboard).
