River Float
I purchased this boat for a float trip down the Guadelupe river near New Braunfels, Tx and I was very satisfied with the purchase. I found the thickness of the material to be very important due to the level of the river had us dragging across a lot of rocks. The three seperate air cells in the boat gave us added assurance as to keeping it afloat if a leak were to happen. It says that it is for four passengers, but it is actually better fitted for two with room for supplies. I would definitely recommend a powered air pump in order to save your energy for the trip. There have been several reviews with negative comments about the paddles, but I found them to be adequate for this particular trip. I would highly recommend this product to a close friend.

Not Horrible
Pros:
The boat is very easy to inflate and deflate using the Coleman pump (purchased separately).
The boat is quite sturdy.

Cons:
The boat was a challenge to navigate.
No more than two people with (1) wetbag can comfortably fit in the boat at the same time.

Awesome boat to go rafting down a river
A couple of months ago we wanted to go rafting down the Truckee river in Lake Tahoe, but they wanted to charge us $35 per person and it was already late too. So we decided to come back some other time with our own boat and gear. About a month ago, I bought a Seahwak II inflatable boat from Amazon and some life saver vests for my boys. I had no previous experience rafting down a river, so I wanted to be cautious. The weather forecast was more windy and colder than the day before. However, after 3 and a half hours of rafting we made it! There were times when I thought the boat was just gonna break from the rocks and tree branches hanging on the river. Other times when the river became more aggressive we just hold to the boat really hard and the boat did pretty good. I was really impressed that at the end of the trip after hitting rocks, branches and bridges columns the boat looked like new. We saw other boats almost full of water and just about to die, but our boat looked just fine. I would highly recommend this awesome boat.

The best quality and value for the price
I looked long and hard to find a little inflatable that had the look and feel of a high quality type (avon style) boat and this is it. The material is solid and strong. The welds are good. The oar kit is a little light, but works ok. I use a different bag to store it now since the one it came in is too small and light to get it back in. Overall, a very good buy.

Its great
Great boat for about two adults and gear. Kinda hard to use as a row boat but maybe it just takes more practice. I had it out on the ocean during some pretty ruff days and had no problem.
