RIB v Roll-Up Dinghy (self.sailing)

submitted 1 year ago by Kmcb182 to c/sailing

We are choosing between a RU (Roll-Up) and RIB (Rigid Inflatable Boat) style dinghy.

We predominantly coastal cruise with our dog and two adults only.

Our SV is a 37.5 Hunter Legend, that has a good davit system and an outboard motor mount.

I would prefer an RU so that my transom can remain open and available, but know that a RIB is more sturdy, roomy and better for any rough conditions.

Any thoughts or advice?

Do you know how well these hold up to being supported underway by davets on a catamaran?
