I am helping. You were wondering whether the product is fit for purpose, I am suggesting, like many other posters, that the cause of the dunking might not lie with the product.
You could start a poll, given the circumstances, was the capsize caused by
a) inexperienced use of a dinghy
b) mass of the user vs point of balance in a form stable vessel
c) product is not fit for purpose
I will hartely agree that a Plastimo 3 man dingy might not be the correct tender for a 16 stone man, at least not without a few trials. Indeed, with a 15ft RIB, this would never have happened.
You misplaced your weight in a small dinghy and ended up in the water. It is no big deal, it happened to a lot of us (incl yours truly), be glad that there are no pictures of the event.
And no, it is not the products' fault.
