  nice 2 person boat August 4, 2008
This is a very nice boat. It has three inflatable compartments: bottom, inside, and outside. Feels safe. Looks very cute too. My kids love it. It is however very far from 'colossus'. The wings in the back artificially increase its length while shortening internal sitting space. I doubt that 3 ppl can fit sitting inside. Even 2 adults and 1 child is unrealistic. I mean it (I tried it). 1 adult and 1 child sounds optimal. Even with the wings the boat looks tiny. If 4 ppl sit on the sides they will most likely let water inside. There is a bit of false advertisement there, therefore the four stars.
The oars look cheap but out of 8 oars we had NONE broken after a 5-hour trip. The key is to keep them screwed together tightly at all times. We went around and checked from time to time, because they have a tendency to get unscrewed when you paddle.
Overall wonderful boat for the price.
  Very sturdy for the price. August 2, 2008 We just returned from a camping trip on Monarch Lake, CO and used this raft with great success! I would say it's worth every penny. Don't forget to buy PFD's, especially if children are using it.
  Great deal... July 16, 2008 Real tough construction. Took this thing to the beach for a week with our four children. It was played with all week..It held up very well to the beating teenagers can dish out..Great item.
  Great buy! July 10, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is a great deal on this boat. I bought ours from the local hardware store about 4 years ago. We do a lot of camping and my 4 kids get a lot of use out of this boat. It was the best $69.00 I have spent on toys for the water. The oars are not that strong but we have only broke one I think. I would pay this price even if it didn't come with the oars. It is very heavy duty although we did get a hole in the bottom, hard to say what it was from but I patched it with some silicone and it has held up just fine. It is very easy to inflate and deflates fast. We use the Coleman electric pump (the same one we use for the air mattress) and it inflates in minutes. I am seriously thinking about buying another one at this price. I hope you find this information helpful.
  Good product. However Mis-labeled. June 26, 2008 I like Coleman products. 90% of my camping or outdoor items are Coleman. I had been thinking of buying this boat for a couple years. It's well made, however it is NOT a 4 person boat. 2 adults can fit comfortably, and 1 child at most. The oars are cheap and small, I may end up replacing them. If you're looking for a boat for 2 people or you and a couple kids, this is great! If you want to fit the whole family ... you might want to look elsewhere.
