"Had a perfect boating weekend with this roomy 12ft boat that easily fits in the trunk. Great on its own but would recommend also purchasing a battery inflator, drill paddle, and/or trolling motor setup. can't wait to take it out again!"

"Hello Friends.... We purchased this Boat with the mount and motor and this is a true review so please read it. The boat overall is awesome and so much fun!! I inflates and deflates super quick and the set up is about 30 min total to be on the water with the motor and mount. Super comfortable and easy to set up and take down. It's pretty heavy but a stronger 1 man can handle it. if not handles allow for 2 people to carry. Here is what I have a problem with....... 1. 5 person??? ummmm i don't think so...... Maybe if you don't have a motor and a battery MAYBE....but it's going to be super tight with 5 ADULTS plus some cooler. I'll say 4 adults without Motor......3 adults with Motor. Or if you have kids no problem 2 adults 2 children. Def. not 5 adults though..... you will not have room to cooler or other items. 2. There should be an canvas roof attachment for separate purchase.....the boat gets super hot in direct sunlight and you pretty much cook. I built my own one so i'm good on that end but there should be an option to purchase perfect fit one. 3. Pump........No way that you will like to use the hand pump they should include a electric pump that uses outlet and car outlet. It's a waste of money for them to include that into the box because no one will ever use that. BUY A ELECTRIC ONE... Thank me later. 4. Cup holder........Again there should be an attachment for cup holders.....they thought about rod holders but not cup holders I mean if you are on the water of course you need water, beer, pop on the boat if part of fun.....so def. would need a cup holder.....but i've made my own. Overall.....I give 5 stars for this boat cause i'm handy and i could customize things for this boat you can also YOUTUBE some videos of other people doing cool stuff to the boat. So conclusion.......... Buy this boat with Mount and MOTOR......Believe me you will need it. And have fun cause it's a fun boat with some extras that you need to get. WATCH some youtube videos and get out there and enjoy nature. CHEEERS!!!"

"We purchased this to float the river and it was perfect! We spent 7.5 hours on the water, and this boat made for the best day. It's very roomy and durable. There were only 2 of us in the boat along with our coolers, but we could have easily had another person or 2 join us and it would have still been enough space. I would highly recommend this boat!"

"We used to have the Mariner 4 and had to let it go during an international move. I like this more because it is lighter to carry, has more sitting space, and the floor is softer to sit on. The only downside of this vs the Mariner 4 is that it can hold less of a motor, but I am not planning to use it with a motor. Another small downside is that if you take some water into your mariner 4 you stay dry because it settles below the floor, if you take enough water into this with kids and dog getting in and out, you start sitting in water, which is not as ideal. Seems strong enough that it is going to last."

"The boat is big enough for 5. We had a few trips as 3 adults, 2 kids, and a dog. It was plenty of space for our stuff too. If you going to use oars for the boat, my advice to order second set plus extentions, because those it is too hard to use only one pair, when the boat is full. I bought trolling motor right after my first trip). Also there is small inconvenience with realizing of the right pressure in the boat. No manometer coming with the boat, instead that you need to measure 10cm mark on a side. The process is a little annoying, i would prefer a manometer on the air pump or some easy to read indicators on each chambers. "

"Excellent Product "

"Took it out for river floating yesterday. So far everything great. Had a blast. No problems as yet. Definitely will put in a plywood floor, as it is hard to get in and out of. "

"We took our boat out for the first time, fillied it and valve 3 leaks! We were able to go out on the lake for 20 minutes (long enough to fill the girl scout patch requirements) but would love to some how get this fixed! The boat is perfect for us as love to travel and it can pack away nicely. This first trip really made me want to go again, I love that it was so easy to maneuver in the water and that we could have attached a troll motor. Please tell me there is a way to get this fixed!"

"Something that we all should own! Just Great. "
