Inflatable dinghy free for collection

Post by Nick »

From our local Freecycle group:
Inflatable dinghy

Tue May 29, 2012 2:26 pm (PDT)

Rather old but serviceable Astral 4 person inflatable with scow bow. Could do with some tlc but no serious leaks. Solid marine ply floorboards. OK as a tender for a couple more seasons.

To collect from Benderloch. You'll need to get your own pump and some oars/outboard.
As I am publishing this without the owners' knowledge I have omitted contact details - will PM them to anyone who is interested.

I'm not currently looking for a replacement dinghy (and I know the reception I'd get if I acquired another one as a "useful spare") but just out of interest, what's a "scow bow"?
