Tender size RIB advice

A few weeks ago I spent a weeks holiday on a rag and stick boat (Sunsail). The boat had a little Carib rib tied on the back with a 9.8 tohatsu motor on it. I used the rib every day for trips ashore, snorkelling etc and really enjoyed it. I am now considering getting something similar to use from a shallow beach in Pembrokeshire for potching about and fishing mainly spinning and trolling.
My thoughts were that I could get a small rib on a trailer, fit beachmaster wheels, and have a small outboard that I could lift off and put in the sanctuary of my house/garage at the end of the day.
I have done some searches here but all of the small stuff seem to be airdecks. I have no experience of these but a rib seems more sensible for me as the boat will be living outside on a trailer all year round.
Can anyone offer advice or have experience on this type of set up?

I stumbled on a vid on you tube from the beachmaster website showing a vid of the exact set up i had on holiday and before anyone asks no the vid wasnt due to my cock up!

I have put the you tube link below if that doesnt work search for "unmanned tender".
