Sorry Steve, MAIB doesn't put the date on the pages of their issues so I can't help you. If I remember correctly it was at least a three or four part article, and he considered every dinghy possibility and gave you the good points and the bad points. Small vs. large: hard dinghies or inflatable: rowing characteristics; sailing possibilities; carrying capacity; with outboard or without - he favors, without. One less problem to worry about. I wrote Robb and told him to publish it as a book; his insights and experience were worth their weight in gold. If you write to him he might make a copy of his manuscript and mail it to you, or write Bob Hicks and see if he has those back issues available. Connie
