Disappointed floater
Had this boat for a year. Used it for summer river trips down a well known river for leisurely floats. This boat could not hold up and developed several leaks at the seams. Was very disappointed, particularly since I had a Seahawks previously that lasted years. Wanted the upgrade because we go so often. Was very disappointed.

Crazy deal for a surprisingly tough boat
Great boat for fishing and recreation on our local lake. Amazingly durable for what it is and WAY less than the other choices.

Good for fishing and relaxing out on the pond
This is the perfect sturdy little boat, you can fit up to 4 people but it works great for 3 with extra room for a cooler /tackle box etc. It comes with a hand pump but I recommend an electric air pump it makes it quicker to blow up the boat and the seating. The seats are just set down in there, but you really don't need to have them secured down, the plus is it helps if you're more comfortable sitting a little further back to row. The setup was very easy and the valves are numbered in the order to fill, it took under 10 minutes. I would also recommend putting in the floor slats before blowing up as it's much easier to set in place. The oars are light but they work and have a spot to secure them to the boat. There is even a setup for a small motor which is a nice touch. This works great for going out on the pond (and for fishing it has 2 fishing rod holders) or even as a dinghy to go along with your bigger boat.

A Fishing Husband’s Dream
This boat surprised me. When it arrived, the box doesn’t give the size justice. When fully inflated, the boat is close to 11 feet long and 5 feet wide. It holds up to 1100lbs, so I would say 3 grown men would fit comfortably with their coolers and tackle box. A floor is included, basically covered slats, but it does allow you to stand up and walk in the boat without feeling off balance. There are 5 different sections to inflate, one being the keel, which helps with the floor/balance and durability of the boat. My husband loves using this and our 2 year old will enjoy it for years to come. As you see in the pictures, it’s easy to transport, especially with a bigger SUV or truck. If you don’t have a bigger vehicle, it can be easily deflated and put in the included carrying bag. It doesn’t take long to inflate, comes with a high output pump which blows up on the up and down pump movements. It also has deflate on the pump to help you crank out that air and put back into the bag. This boat is perfect for the lake or river and an affordable option! You also have the capability to mount a small outboard or trolling motor, it’s literally everything you could want to fish locally.

Well crafted!
I am so excited to take this boat out on the water!!! This company is highly rated and recommended for having good quality products and this boat is no exception. I can’t speak to how it will handle on water as it’s still freezing for the next month or so in Maine but reviews look great and I can tell it’s a durable, well made product.

Good dinghy
This was so fun! We used it on the river as a dinghy off the main boat. Docking a star because it was insanely heavy. Pumping it up was very easy though and the oars are sturdy.

The oars are too short
The quality of this boat is actually pretty good. Sturdy and durable. The only problem we found was that the oars are not proper length. Typically each oar is supposed to be 2-3 times the width of the boat. There is a formula to figure out proper oar length. The oars that come with all Intex boats is about 4 ft. The width of the boats vary. But basically the oars are only decent for the kids 2 person boats. And all the bigger boats, the oars are drastically smaller than they should be. And as a result you will work 5 times harder to row and maintain control of your strokes. Ideally there should be two sets of 7-9 ft oars for the 4+ person boats, 4 oars total for each boat. But you can get away with one set of 7-9 ft oars per boat, 2 oars total.
