Current slide {CURRENT_SLIDE} of {TOTAL_SLIDES}- Best Selling in Inflatables
Got this for my wife and I to paddle around the ponds in Richmond, VA. Sturdy materials, easy to assemble and inflate; was able to build quick-and-dirty bimini top using 1.25" PVC pipes and nylon cloth. Recommend getting the electric air pump, though; inflating by hand takes about 10-15min and will tire you out. I'm about 6'5", and my wife is 5'11", and it's very comfortable and roomy for the two of us. Would recommend.

Arrived with numerous holes and will not inflate. Under further inspection, it said it was sold for parts only. What other parts would you need from a boat the doesn't inflate or float on water?...A new boat! Good thing I paid over 75% of the original price to save on the parts that came with a popped raft. The paddles will really come in handy when you have to abandon your deflating life raft. Good luck out there.

We use this raft straight out of the box inflating it at the lake. It was easy to inflate with a pump powered by the car electrical outlet. The hand pump that comes with the boat also works quite well. It would not be too difficult to inflate the entire raft with the provided hand pump. The construction is excellent. It is heavy duty. The raft has multiple inflation chambers. The Boston valves worked perfectly. Once on the water the raft supported the weight of five people with no issues whatsoever. The provided oars are the only week point in the entire product. They will do fine, however if you have single piece oars you’ll find them to be much more reliable than these multiple piece screw together oars that came with the raft. In terms of value this was an excellent buy. Great quality and easy to use.Read full review

I have only used this boat once but I definitely feel it was a good buy! very easy to set up and move once it is inflated. just a helpful tip, do not tighten the middle connector on the paddle too tightly. after using sun tan lotion and my hulk like strength, I had to battle with the paddle. having someone hold one end while you loosen the connector does help if this happens. arrived faster than expected and felt safe for 2 large adults.

Awesome inflatable. Used to have a 4-person boat and I loved it. Thought I'd go a size up to accommodate my larger then life brother. Says he's lost weight but time will tell. This boat will give me all the room I need for my brother and the gear we will need. I have already blown it up and it's huge.. Cant wait to get on the water with it.

I bought this as a hurricane prep and it looks to be very well built. I inflated it to become aquainted with it in an emergency, I used the hand pump that came with it and while it does a decent job of inflating the raft it was time consuming and for me at 58 years old a bit taxing on my strength and indurance. I purchased a 12 volt power inflator for 50.00 and will use that the next time the boat needs to be used. Still, the raft was a quality buy for the money and a potential life saver in the event of severe flooding due to hurricane.

This is one of the best values for inflatable raft. I just tested it in local lake and had a 3 hours ride down river with my 2 boys. They loved it. It is sturdy and was inflated real fast. Need two people to carry around but very sturdy. I am planning to attach an electric trolling motor to it and go out fishing. I seen several people used high power trolling motor and seemed to handle it great. It is very comfortable and roomy having fishing rode holder. I am planning to use PVC pipes use rod holders as pipe holders and make a shade on top.

I highly recommend this product! I bought it in June 2014 from simonsurplus1 so I could go out fishing on the inland lakes. Can't even count how many times I have been out fishing on it. I bought the transom mount and have a trolling motor along with the battery for it as well. The pump that comes with it is okay but definitely get an electric pump. I have had a few holes in the boat, pinhole sized, and all you have to do to fix it is put a little bit of vinyl glue over the hole and it dries in 5 minutes! I recommend putting a folded tarp on the floor to protect against dropping hooks into the boat. The oars are garbage because they're simply not long enough to effectively power the boat for one person. If something major happens to the boat I have i can always just buy another one for $190! The boat simply rocks. I've had 3 adults fishing in this boat along with all our gear. Heck, i've even slept out on the lake in this. Dropped anchor in the middle of the lake, and pulled the tarp over me. Easily the best investment I've ever made thank you simonsurplus.Read full review

Super great boat love how much room is in it can’t wait to use it as soon as I get my license and registration Gotta make sure you have that before using boat.. Otherwise putting an engine has been fairly straightforward as well. Highly recommend for someone who doesn’t want to spend a lot of money on it and just wants to putt around the Canal or nearby towns on the water. Thank you!

This is a fantastic inflatable boat. This is my second boat. I used the first one for six years and decided I needed a larger boat. It is easy to set up and take down. It is easy to store. I would recommend that a trolling motor be used to make the boating experience more enjoyable.
