Best for the Money!!, Jun 25, 2008
By AnatolyC
Well what can i say. Just got my boat few days back opened the box and here it is JOY!!!!!!!! Inflated it and it really came to live. It is Huge! Planing to take it out around Florida key for a snorkeling trip to the alligator reef Islamarada. Over all looks great very solid and durable. Very roomy inside and comfortable. So far do not see a reason for a complaint of any kind. Will hook it up to Mercury Marine 3.5hp. Motor mount worked perfect! And about the motor mount it is not listed on Overstock.com as a part that would come with a boat, Good news to you all that are wondering YES it does come with the motor mount. Very solid PVC black block with stainless steel rails. l hope that this review is any good to you. Get this boat and know that I researched whole bunch of them and I can tell you that it's money well spend. Good luck to all catch you outdoors. Big Thanks to overstock for a keep up a good work.

WHAT A GREAT BOAT!!, Jun 24, 2008
By Jenn4uofa
We bought this boat to go down Spring River in Arkansas. It was great. We had 4 adults in the boat and were able to sit on the sides with our leg in the water and the sides held up great. We have also taken our 3 children with us and they sit on the middle pillow and on the floor. They feel very secure in it. We absolutely love our boat. We did invest the money and bought upgraded oars since the Spring River is so rocky we didn't want to take the chance in breaking the ones that came with the boat and not have oars to paddle, but the ones that come with the boat will do fine if your in a lake or still waters. The boat is very easy to inflate and deflate. If your out in the sun for a long period, the sections that you aren't sitting on do get a bit hot but it cools down instantly when you splash some water on it. I have to be honest in saying that the boat was a bit more than I wanted to pay for, but as much as we go rafting, at $130 for a rental raft each time you go down the river, it was well worth investing the money in this boat for our family. All in all....WE LOVE OUR BOAT!!

Great boat for relaxing on the lake, Jun 16, 2008
By jmmess
This boat is great for relaxing or fishing on a quiet lake, pond, or reservoir. It inflates and deflates within 5-10 minutes using the pump that comes with the boat. Overstock doesn't mention all of the items that come with this boat. It comes with 2 oars and holders for fishing poles. There is a valve to release water in the boat. There is a waterproof bag (albeit a big flimsy) that is on the boat and also a bag to store the boat in once deflated. The boat also comes with a board for a 2.5HP motor (which I would highly recommend getting as rowing can prove a bit difficult). The cons - you need 2 people to lift the boat and it can get hot (can just pour some water from the lake on it). It would be difficult to fit 5 adults in the boat, especially if you are trying to stretch your legs. Overall, we love our "green monster" and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it! |
