I'm looking into renting a dingy for a day from "Noah's Little Arks" in Cruz Bay. Price is under $200 for an all-day rental. Their website says they offer 12' and 14' inflatable boats with outboard motors. Can four adults comfortably (and safely) fit in a 14' boat? The website makes no mention of maximum capacity, etc., but the photos on the site always show just two people in the boat.

Sure, you can do four "normal size" adults in a dingy - CAVEAT if the waves are not real high that day! They will not let you take it out if the conditions are dangerous! Have a ball!

I just spoke with someone from their office yesterday.....the 14 footer should be fine for 4 adults and gear (we had the same question, except we have 15 and 17 year old daughters) since the engine is larger than the 12 footer. The woman was very helpful and pleasant.
