Post by OldDemps »

Considering the A25 narrow transom, Anyone every carry or consider carrying their inflatable in vertical position on swim platform or with something like these brackets pictured (cost $399)?

Yeah, I suppose that could work. The only possible issues I see with that could be windage & rearward visibility.

One of the BC Albineers uses a vertical storage system for their inflatable dinghy. They have rounded ends on each tube to which they glued the davit connections. It works well but as Desert Albin notes it impacts rearward visibility.
