  1. Hi JapanRon.

    New to the forum and just wanted to say love the reports and information you give out in your posts. I've noticed the inflatable boat in the posts. Been thinking about getting an inflatable boat for fishing purposes in the near future and just had a few questions for ya if you don't mind. Don't even know if the boat is yours or your buddies but maybe you can help.

    1) The boat Rubber Ducky, i'm assuming its a R.I.B. hence the trailor? How long is it?
    2) Motor HP?
    3) Your take on S.I.B's (soft inflatable boats)for inshore/close to shore fishing. I don't have the space to store a full boat, RIB. main reason why i'm looking into a SIB for fishing
    4) Safety. How does the Rubber Ducky handle out a few miles from the shore?

    I'm looking at getting a 12' SIB in the near future with possibly a 15-20hp motor and just wanted to see your thoughts on taking a boat like that a few miles out. Would be greatly appreciative as I see you've been out a little ways on a smaller craft.
