Hi Chuck.
 I appreciate the information. I have looked into the WB 8. Cindy Ballreich=
 also has a very good solution.
Thanks again.

    Does anyone with a Baba 30 use a fiberglass dingy and how do you stow i=
t.


  I have a Walker Bay 8' dinghy (it's injection-molded polypropylene, rathe=
r than fiberglass - virtually indestructible) which stows on the foredeck up=
side down. The bow of the dinghy goes over the samson post, but you can stil=
l get to the post by reaching under the dink. The stern fits between the for=
ward hatch and the dorade boxes. I lash it down at the bow and both sides of=
 the stern. It does cover the forward hatch, but the sails clear it OK. I ha=
ve a 2 hp Honda which is all it's rated for - also have the sailing kit, whi=
ch is a lot of fun.


  I doubt if anything larger would fit on the Baba 30. Which is unfortunate=
, because the 8' Walker Bay only holds 2 people.
