Thanks for all the input. The deal on the inflatable boat/motor was a series of compromises all the way around. We wanted the inflatable so that we could haul it around while towing a camper- Towing a boat trailer behind the camper is not practical at all for us. If the inflatable doesn't work out this year, we will probably look at something we can muscle up on top of the pickup, but that doesn't sound like fun.
This will be the third summer we bounce around Alaska and Canada so having a bigger boat and keeping it docked somewhere won't work for us right now. Maybe in a year or two, we might settle on just going to someplace like Haines or POW Island for the summer, and if we do, then we are likely to get a bigger boat and motor.
Thanks again.
