Launching an inflatable at LJ?
 
Do you guys think it is relatively easy to launch an inflatable dinghy with a small outboard at LJ? I am thinking of getting something like this for a little more mobility

I've seen guys launch all kinds of small boats from LJ. I am not saying its easy, I wouldn't know, but can definitely be done. Everyone I have seen do it launch on small surf.

it's easy, but make sure your boat is light and maneuverable.

And be careful if you drive on the beach with a trailer.

Don't want to say it would be easy but I don't think it would be that difficult depending on the length.

True, anything can be made difficult. Just try and approach it the same way you do a kayak. Learn slowly in small surf. Pack light and be off the beach quickly, and watchout and give swimmers, old people, kayaks, dolphins, etc the right of way.

Boat/ kayak launching in LJ is a huge advantage and we need to make sure we are respectful and careful. It would suck to have this asset taken away.....:cheers1:

Yes I believe it'd be that easy if you use an inflatable Sea Eagle Sport Runabout...
