Inflatable Boat for Fishing Adventures: AIRHEAD Angler Bay

FudgemuffetFudgemuffet: My likes about this product is that the material is 30 it is made well. There are a few kinks about this product that I don’t like like the plugs. They are not very efficient as far as keeping the water out any little neck on it can cause it to open and flood water in or leak water in the boat has a lot of kinks or weak spots. As I like to call them where are you can see that it has been folded in the crease has stuck in there and, that could be a potential tear later on where you’d have to patch the boat up . The first boat I bought from the same company was the four person and it came with a tear so big in the bottom that it was leaking. The seller does not allow for refunds, but thankfully Amazon was able to refund me and let me to make the purchase for the six person for this company, so yes, I gave it a second chance and bought an even bigger boat from them even though the first one was nonrefundable and had defective tear but I am very happy with the second purchase. It doesn’t seem to have any leaks. I blew it up. I checked it out. It does have like I said a few kinks or potential weak spots as I like to call them but all in all the second purchase...

clinton kollybabaclinton kollybaba: I like it and go out regularly fishing.
Combined with a 100Ah Lithium and Electric trolling motor (50 lb thrust ) , it's been fun fishing with, I rated it 6 stars until this
Their Customer assistance is very poor. I asked them the capacity of the inflatable (included a screen shot of the identical inflatable from Amazon in my email to them ), They responded 1200lbs, when in fact it is noted on the inflatable 600lbs ????
Also, I lost one of the rod holder inserts and wanted to purchase another, They advised me do not sell them ???? And I asked where I could get one, no response????
IMHO , They really dont care after they are paid !!!

Daniel Kasem: I spent two entire summers in this thing, 3 days a week. Caught a lot of fish, drank a lot of beers, went a lot of places you can’t get on foot. I’ve never owned a boat and this thing let me fish the lake and visit the surrounding shores. And hit some campsites that were boat-accessible only. I got to do everything I would want a boat for, and it only cost me $300. It’s been a few years since my purchase and it’s even cheaper now.

Of course it doesn’t fit 6 adults. My 8-person tent barely fits 3. My last AirBnb “sleeps 8” but that wasn’t practical either. It’s just marketing. Surprised so many reviewers knocked this boat over that. I bet if you were escaping a flood or a sinking ship, you could cram 6 in it for a couple hours to survive.

What it does fit, comfortably, is two ~200 adults lounging on each end, with a big cooler and a few milk crates in the center with fishing gear. Or you can trade some cargo for a 3rd adult or a couple dogs. I’ve done all these configurations with no problems and no complaints. I’m guessing the reviewer who says they sunk down in it and worried about capsizing was a very large man and not very...

Amazon CustomerAmazon Customer: Do not over pressurize any inflatable boat and let air out if the temperature rises. There should always be some give and flexibility to the boat chambers. This inflatable boat is high quality, easy to inflate, and well designed. No boat is indestructible, take the necessary precautions to avoid over inflation and punctures. Pressure gauges are available and for sale on line if you are not sure how much to inflate a chamber. My rule is inflate till firm with some give.

Bert Berezowski: Love the boat, folds up small and was able to handle the lake no problem. Added a trolling motor and am able to zip across the lake just like the big boys. Only issue i had with it was it was a little cramped for room, but 2 of us fit reasonably well.

PJ: smaller than I thought and it's really best for two people. It lost some air over time. but it's been a pretty good raft for the times we use it.

Justanother: Nice quality and we use it, but totally deceptive packaging. It appears a family could use this, in reality 2 kids or one adult fit.
Much smaller than anticipated. Nice quality though.

Sebastian: Bought it to take the family around lakes and slow moving waters. I used a foot pump to inflate it and took me less than 10 minutes, it is easy to carry, though you will need two people if inflated. The boat will not accommodate 6 adults, it is a bit narrow, you could fit 4 adults plus some fishing gear and a cooler comfortably. The boat trails OK but you may need two people rowing to haul all the weight. This boat is a fun and I am anxious to try it with our trolling motor. Overall a great boat.
