  Pete,

  Yes, I learned more from the builder. The dinghy is still in production. The builder is sending me info via regular mail. When I get it I will post the info. I believe it is the Dooly Dinghy. They also make a dinghy with a clear window on the bottom which is great for coral reefs, etc., but if I rememer right is bigger and would be too big for an A30. I believe a dinghy should be able to stow on deck in case of really bad weather. With this dinghy it is possible for one person to get it up on deck in a pinch. I think it should be able to carry 2 people of 200+ pounds each. I pasted below my response from the builder. It looks like the prices have gone up some.

  John/Sorry,  for some reason they never got put on site. We have both the regular Dooly Dinghy at $699 available and the water window dinghy at $999.00. 

  Best regards,

  Bob at Tiki Water Sports

    I would be interested in knowing more about this
    dinghy.  Do you have dimensions? Pictures?  Did you
    learn any thing further from the builder?

    You say it carries two people and some cargo.  How
    large can the people be?  Will it carry a couple 200+
    pound crew?

    Pete
