5-Person Boat Excursion Set

Gio MazGio Maz: Ha soddisfatto in pieno le mie aspettative. Comodo per la mia famiglia di 5 persone di cui due bimbi. Ho portato anche un ospite e ci siamo stati anche in sei. Ho letto altre recensioni dove utenti si lamentano del supporto dei remi, a me nelle mie escursioni sempre abbastanza lunghe hanno mantenuto bene. Mi sono trovato bene anche con i remi e la loro dimensione. Ottimo per le uscite sotto costa, non vedo l' ora che arrivi la prossima estate per rimetterlo in mare

tim: Obviously it says 5-6 adults and that's no lie, we even threw a ton of kids in and she still floated, the oars are as you expect, cheap but functional, we tried ours in the sea and it didn't disappoint, easy to set up and the pump is a god send although has a tendancy to fallapart and needs screwing back together, there is an on-board electric motor mount area but I'd strongly recomend that only for fishing on lakes, the sea will eat you alive, all in all we had fun in it.

Collectort63: Insgesamt bietet das Boot für den Preis sehr viel. Es ist wirklich sehr lang und breit, und die gegen Verrutschen in spezielle Befestigungen eingehängten Kissen ermöglichen ein bequemes Sitzen.
Die Verarbeitung ist nicht schlecht, doch im Detail wäre genügend Luft nach oben.
So ist die "Naht" im Bugbereich (verbindet Ober-und Unterteil der äußeren Luftkammer) an manchen Stellen sehr dünn geraten. Ob das Einfluss auf die Haltbarkeit hat, bleibt abzuwarten.
Das Kunststoffmaterial an sich ist recht robust und widerstand bisher auch den Krallen unseres kleinen Hundes.
Das Boot hat 2 Luftkammern plus einen aufblasbaren Boden.
Die beiden Kammern bilden einen äußeren und einen inneren "Ring".
Sie könnten ruhig etwas höher (und damit steifer) sein, denn das Boot knickt beim Tragen in der Mitte leicht zusammen.
Die Sitzkissen und der Boden haben eine Art von Rückschlagventil, das nach Lösen des Schlauches zum Aufpumpen verhindern, dass Luft ausströmt.
An sich gut gemeint. Beim Ablassen der Luft müssen die Ventile jedoch umständlich zusammengedrückt werden, damit überhaupt Luft entweichen kann. Besonders unangenehm ist das beim Boden, wo man beim...

kgbkgb: This raft is perfect for me. I enjoy fishing on large lakes, but do not have the room or car to own a full size boat. I can literally fit this raft, two group 27 batteries, and a motor mount in my trunk. I put my Minn Kota 50lb thrust trolling motor in the back seat with my fishing gear and cooler and I'm off with a buddy fishing all day. This is in a Toyota Corolla. If I really pack it in I can still fit another person in the back seat. It is great to not have to wait in line for the boat ramp or pay the extra fees. Put down a tarp, pump it up anywhere on shore, literally toss it in the water, load it up and your off.

As far as durability goes, we take it in shallows and hit bottom, hit logs, my two kids jump all over this thing with their shoes on, held up to many pointy fish fins hitting the side and bottom (they get out of the net sometimes), submurged rocks and branches you can't see until you are on top of them, being dragged over gravel boat ramps short distances, etc... no leaks and still works as good as the day I got it. I might just be lucky, but it seems pretty durable. It doesn't rock at all when you stand up in it, you can move around as much as you want...

Double Espresso in Decaf Town: Below is my review in 3 parts: i) a quick review on the boat; (ii) list of 11 recommended mods and accessories; (iii) summary of other people's comments/suggestions and (iv) minor issues for which I invite comments.

================

Part I: Quick Review

Generally, the other reviews here say it all. This is a great general utility boat.

1. It is easy to transport. With all my accessories and fishing gear, it fits into the back of my minivan with ease (last seat row collapsed).
2. It is roomy enough for my needs. Accommodates two adults with two kids (under 10) easily with battery and fishing gear and trolling motor. My estimate, about 500lbs. I think three adults is comfortable, but four is pushing it.
3. Easy to assemble/disassemble but still time consuming (and tiring on hot days)
4. Seems durable enough. I have run into submerged trees, low water points, scraped trolling motor, etc. but have had no punctures.

So why four stars? I still get envious of solid boats or zodiacs outfitted with big engines.

Part II: Recommended accessories and mods (or "Why your low cost raft will cost you another $500")
