    Yeah, he explains in a video of his a couple of years ago that's exactly why he went to the inflatable. With the conventional mini jet boat every weekend away doing rivers like in that clip, he would spend the next weekend or two in the workshop with the Mig and hydraulic press.

    The inflatable has some impressive PU armour over the rear third of the hull. I got given a sample and told to push a jewellers flat bladed screwdriver through it, hard as I like. I couldn't.
