Intex Excursion Inflatable Boat Series

Product Information

If we’re talking weight capacity, the Intex Excursion 4 may hold up to a solid 880 lbs. If you’re looking to carry some extra equipment, the inflatable boat might give you enough support. About 6 years ago me and my wife wanted a boat, so as i was pretty broke at the time and nowhere to keep a trailered GRP boat i opted for an inflatable. Being a COMPLETE NOVICE Looking online at RIBS, SIBS and these types of kids toys i didn't have a clue the capabilities of the latter and THOUGHT they where all pretty much the same, well they're all Inflatable aren't they?... BruceK, Dan208, ontheplane, and paradave: Thank you all for the information, story, and advice. Glad to hear these things from you folks before trying something else I haven't done. I will definitely just use the boat in small local lakes, the way I have been doing. In addition to the motor, I plan to buy these things: Yes, the Excursion 4 is safe for children. However, children should always be accompanied by an adult and wear life vests.

Intex Excursion Inflatable Boat Set with Aluminium Oars and

That being so, you might be able to count on both boat models to carry more weight for your food, fishing gadgets, and other supplies, aside from the people’s capacity. Seat Comfort To locate the puncture on an inflatable liner it is best to apply diluted washing up liquid from a spray bottle to the surface of the whole liner and around the inflation valve. Bubbles should appear where the puncture is located. The oars are in aluminum, but the knobs that connect one piece to the other are in plastic, and these are usually the parts that break. We rowed quite vigorously on our second time taking the raft out, and one of the oars just broke at the connecting section. I am so impressed with this product! I don't know much about kayaks, but after a bit of research I zeroed in on this one, and I'm so glad I did. It is durable, easy to inflate, and super comfortable for two people. Just enough room for storage, even with fishing stuff. I wish the seats were made of a different material, as we poked one with a fish hook on our first outing and will probably have to replace it... but that's user error and not a flaw in the product. Thank you for making it possible for me to head out on the water with my kids, at such an affordable price! "If you are looking for a heavy-duty boat, I highly recommend the Intex Excursion 4. It will provide years of fun, safe boating for you and your loved ones. Both boat models have the same height of 17 in. The Intex Excursion 4’s width and depth are 124 and 57 in, respectively. The inflatable boat weighs around 51 lbs. This might explain why buyers are so fond of its compactness. Despite the durability of both boats, some users pointed out some minor flaws here and there. For example, a few people reported that they’d found holes in some areas of the boats. This kayak is made of strong material, it can take a lot of abuse and still hold up, it won't puncture easily. The first time i used it we had 4 adults. Usually when advertised as "4 person" it means 2 person but with this raft we were actually able to fit four people.

4-person Intex Excursion 4 inflatable boat. Which I have a 4-person Intex Excursion 4 inflatable boat. Which

I am new to boat motors and I did some research, and I will likely buy a 55lb thrust trolling motor (good choice?). I am considering two options: With these things, hopefully, I could have more family fun this summer in local lakes. Based on all the information I have shared, which motor do you recommend if I have four people on this boat in a local lake? Any straight answer? Or another motor? I definitely can't do bigger and real boats this summer for many reasons. To clean the pool, we would recommend using diluted washing up liquid as this is a non-abrasive cleaner
