Looking:

Inflatable. Hard floor. 17 to 20" . What's the state of the art? You guys know where I would be fishing.

No boat, back in the suds.

Ribcraft. Made here in Marblehead. You did say state of the art. Also means pricey.... See a lot of impressive rigs roll in and out of town, as well as some sea trials. And then there are the ones headed out of town all covered up... and it isn't to keep them clean...

I'm curious, why are you looking for an inflatable? What are the advantages over a standard craft? The width of the gunwale and the risk of puncture from large hooks or gaffs would concern me but I know nothing about this style boat.

Easy to trailer. easy to launch. Sea worthy and they don't puncture easily at all. i have fished out of one a few times.
I don't want to deal with a marina and $2K a year for a slip.

Paul, this one has been here for a week or so. I think he was moving it to another location north of here. I used to buy my work trucks through him when he had auction buying business.
