I want to share this PT Spear with you. Built in Texas and transported to the East Coast, the builder has done a great job and customized the boat to hang just right on the mother ship’s davits.\u00a0 The custom cover they had made is also very attractive and functional. See the photos below.
\nAnd..of course… the following comment was very happily received! \ud83d\ude09
\n“…We have been using the dinghy for nearly two weeks to get to and from the boat and the beach\/dinghy dock.\u00a0 So far, we have not splashed so much as a drop of water onto the crew or passenger (other than what I splash up with the oars – I\u2019m still learning to use these long babies), despite rowing ashore and back in up to 20 knot winds and fairly choppy conditions.\u00a0 It rows like a dream and I get an upper body workout for no extra charge.\u00a0 We could not be happier with the finished product.”<\/i><\/p>\n
