I really like it. It has very minimal drag on the sailing performance. Is easy to use, so we use it all the time. In mellow to medium conditions it is very solid (with the outboard removed). I've used it in rough conditions, including the outside of Vancouver Is in 35+kts. It handled it fine. For long offshore passages I put the dink on the foredeck. Make sure you follow the directions on how to raise, tighten and secure the dink. I really like how quick and easy I can get the dink be put in and out of the water.
