As I've seen in Pittwater, BB's locking tender is good, but not ideal to transport and go ashore elsewhere.
My 2.3m dinghy is a bit heavy too, at 23kg, but it fits inside the car, and can easily be stored on the foredeck and deployed at a destination to explore the new harbour/creek, etc. A light motor is far easier than rowing.

The Finn Castaway has merit also: Castaway 2.4m | Finn Kayaks (finnboats.com.au)

Or an Origami folding dinghy is much more compact: Origami Folding Dinghy (woodenwidget.com)

I just purchased a 10ft porta boat, hoping it turns out to be a good choice. Going to buy a SUP cover to keep it all in one place and store it on deck lashed to stanchions. Got the idea from Free Range sailing you tube channel.

Does not matter what style of tender you have as long as you can get back out to your vessel in 40 knots of Westerly with wind over tide. Also has to be stable enough alongside your yacht so that you can board safely.
