I can't understand why anyone would buy an inflatable. Over 20 years ago I bought a 1968 13 sport from a gentleman who replaced it with a inflatable. 6-7 years later he replaced that with a cheaper new one which went south also. I still have the 1968 sport 10 + years later. A fried of mine bought a ridgid inflateable less than 10 years ago now his leaks bad and the new one like his is almost 4 grand. He went and bought a 12' Carolina skiff.
