Porta-bote’s size and weight.
Our 10 foot 8 inch Porta-bote weighs about 78 pounds
and folds up to the size of a long surfboard. That makes
her easy to get on and off the deck for storage purposes.
Folded she’s between 3” and 7” thick. That’s flat enough
that we can easily see over her underway, something that
was a challenge with many other dinghy’s.Total capacity is
585 lbs (266kg) including an engine that can weigh no
more than 56 lbs. In practice the biggest four stroke
engine possible is six hp.
If you can buy a two –
stroke engine you might get something more in the 10 -15
horse power range with that weight.
