Consider you may not ever need a dinghy. It takes up too much room, even inflatables. You can beach in 4 or 5 inches of water. A dinghy can beach in 4 or 5 inches of water. Beach and wade ashore as needed. That's what we do over 45 years. It's a very small boat, and perhaps you don't need to haul around yet another small boat on it. Just consider it. Space on a small boat is very very valuable, and you do not want to waste it on something you may not even need. Try six months without it before you buy. PS we gave away our Saturn 12 ft to the Boy Scouts after never using it for 10 years. YMMV.
Safe Travels!
