I had a K79 for several years. I used it on lazy rivers and when I wanted to play with the sailboat. I had an Aquarious 23. I don't recommend it for a regular dink. It is wet at times. Get a reinforced inflatable with oarlocks. My dink (still have it) is an Avon 3.15 rollup. About 100 lbs and isn't useable for your smaller boat.
