Bris dinghy

Looks just like a Newport Vessels, but no air floor. I'm very impressed with the NV inflatables, hard to beat for the price!
 
Lookup Goplus, walmart. They make 7.5 ($300) & 10’ ($429). I have the 7.5 with a 2.6hp motor and love it. 2nd season, still like new and i use it every weekend. See avatar pic.
Sellout fast at walmart, but can get from other sources.

I'm not having any luck finding one of these in stock anywhere.

I purchased a Bris 9.8, but it's too large/heavy for our needs. The closest thing that I can find to the GoPlus is this dinghy from westmarine

One thing to keep in mind with the one you linked too - there is no separate floor. I looked at a used one a few months ago and he made the remark his son didn't like how you could see the ripples in the water, in the floor. There is only the board/slats - no separate air or hard floor or keel.
 
Yeah I know it’s not ideal, but I really want something that doesn’t require adding mounts to the swim deck.

on that floor, is it just a weave pattern of fabric?

In the picture, it looks like a GoPlus I looked at, which appeared to be just the piece of material that makes up the floor of my air deck Newport Vessels. I'd really recommend getting one that has a "floor".

Check out craigslist / FB marketplace. Plenty are out there...

Here's one, essentially brand new...

This one shows the floor a bit better.

I have the bris dinghy with the inflatable floor. I like that setup but the dinghy is just too heavy and large to handle the way we want to.

Ah. I wouldn't think the air floor would cut that much weight out...maybe it does?
