I just bought one for playing around the flats. Since it is sold under the topic of inflatable kayak I guess it qualifys for comment. Have not tried it out yet but it looks pretty rugged and the clear window and center exit hath to the water is nice. It's not real light by any means but should be a one person launch.I wanted the boat for easy exit and ingress for diving and fishing. I'll let you know how it works out. If anyone else has heard any reviews, please let me know. Meantime the old Necky Looksha sport is still doing fine and will be about ten years old this year. It has held up well for a plastic banana.

My limited experience with inflatables has given me the impression that they blow around a lot in any wind. Mind you, these were flat-bottomed boats but I felt that the effort expended to simply get the things to a destination was way out of proportion to what I was used to in a hard shell boat. I'm sure that hull shape plays a big part in this but I'll be very interested in hearing how Chuck likes this Sevylor after he's been out in it a few times.
