Is the BIC 245 dinghy heavy or light?
DirectBoats.com Review We found the Bic 245 Dinghy to be heavy enough to need wheels but included them. They are wider plastic wheels so not too easy to bog down in dirt, but seamed to slow down the boat in the water. Double hull will allow for water to get inside becoming somewhat of a maintenance boat. Good handles for front pulling.
