Has anyone noticed a quiet revolution in inflatable boats due to the new drop-stitch technology? I don't mean those blimpish motor dinghies, but more like kayaks, small sailboats, or stand up paddleboards. They use thin, high pressure panels that are flat rather than bulbous and can even form a conventional looking canoe for instance.
This has allowed me to "moor" quite a fleet of these collapsible things in a tiny apartment atop a high rise. I hardly know any forum to discuss these... I just see new products popping up from google searches or youtube. I thought some might want to know what inflatables are becoming available, such as sailing/pedal power kayaks from Hobie, surfing/white water kayaks from SeaEagle or Aquaglide, standup paddleboards from many sources, and planing sailboats from Aquaglide and some French source I forget. Fun and rugged!
