  That is a great idea for a dink for small boats like our 23. Can't beat the price.
BTW, you did get a plumbing permit before you built that motor mount, didn't you?

LOL, no, didn't get a permit.  The stuff was left over from my bathroom remodel job.  Hmm, didn't get a permit for that one either, ended up with 85 joints and still no leaks 8 years later which is good because most of the joints are not accessible.  When I started thinking about the mount I got the urge to sweat some more copper.  These days, probably would have come out ahead taking all the copper to the metal recycle place and selling it.:)

Got a Boardworks SUP.   It is inflatable.  Comes with a pack and a pump.  Has Three inflatable compartments.
Have not launched to boat yet, so have not tried it.
Did take an inflatable sup down the Colorado through Class 2 rapids. 
My new board should be more stable than that one was.

I have this little 6' inflatable from west marine and I love it: http://www.amazon.com/West-Marine-Person-Inflatable-Dinghy/dp/B006G1PLW4

If you can get one transfered to a local west marine they are only $99
