I have put this on another thread but i may as well get as many answers as i can.
A couple of mates and me have a small 12ft dingy/rowing boat. Moored and used regularly with Oars, it does take a good bit of weight (we have had 4 on it with a shed load of shore tackle)
We want to start using it in areas such as Portland Harbour and Swanage bay with an outboard.
so all you experienced boaty types, what is the minimum amount of equipment you would reccomend.
I reckon throw bags in place of a safety ring to save room. I know we need inshore flares and we have a fishfinder/depth thingy
can we get away with mobile phones in place of hand held VHF.
I know we need life jackets and small anchor.
Maximun outboard for a 12ft?
it does have a solid Transom i know that.
