CO-Z 7.5ft Inflatable Dinghy Boat for 2 Adults, 660lb Capacity Heavy-Duty PVC Raft with Aluminum Floor & Oars, Motor Mount, Portable Kayak-Style Tender for Fishing, Rescue, and Water Sports

I bought the 7.5 foot version of this to use as a tinder dinghy for my sailboat after doing a ton of comparison shopping. After a season of use in fresh water on Lake Michigan, I am extremely happy with it. It was stored on the bow of the boat in full sun most of the time while at the slip and we towed it behind us when we went on trips. Paired with a torqeedo electric motor made this an extremely versatile setup at a fraction of the price of other name brands. I was surprised at how well it held air all season without needing to be topped off at all and even though it was stored upside down in full sun most of the time, I was surprised how well the seams and the glue held up in year one. If you're looking for an economical tinder dinghy, look no further.

If you're looking for a little boat that you can row around a calm lake or pond, this is a good one. It's good for one person to go fishing in. Maybe two people that aren't too bug to just relax and have a couple of beers. It's small, but I knew that buying it. On the plus side, it fits in the back of a Ford Ranger fully inflated. If you plan on putting a motor on it, the I would say it's a one person boat. Still good for fishing, but probably just one person. I had a 2.5 HP outboard motor in the garage and was looking for a boat to use it on. This one worked. It is small enough to come up on plane with that little power. But I have to sit on the seat to operate the motor, which doesn't leave room for another person. I tried sitting on one of the inflatable tubes but it's too small for that. Be aware this boat doesn't have a HIN. Not an issue if you don't plan on putting a motor on it. I got a certificate of authenticity or whatever it's called from the seller, but it still took 3 trips to the DMV and one to the local police station before I could get it registered in the state. Just mentioning this in case you plan to use it with a motor in a state that requires it to be registered.

Dinghy is a little small for good maneuverability. We used it to get to and from our dock after the recent floods isolated the dock. It is well-constructed. Foot pump works well, except that when you disconnect it, a lot of air escapes.

Nice Dinghy , sturdy , excellent customer support! I also had to contact them for HIN , they issues the certificate in promptly as we added a trolling motor( 3hp ) and needed to register it Follow the instructions and you should get many years out of this Dinghy Especially, the break in period 50% inflation x 12 hrs then fully inflate x 12 hours so the it’s allowed to expand / contract under normal conditions The oars as others have said hit your knees if your tall but we are using the trolling motor so it’s a non issue Great line rings at good points in the now for safe anchoring / handling Really good value

Two adults do not fit in this dinghy. I was barely able to load my equipment on it, and it is very cramped, making rowing difficult. I used a 4HP Suzuki outboard, but after adjusting the tilt, I was able to control the bow from porposing. I also tested it with a 55 thrust trolling motor, and it handled quite nicely! This dinghy is OK for one person and very little gear. I have already taken it a mile out with 2-3' seas. Luckily, I wrapped my gear up in a plastic bag because by the time I got to my vessel, I was drenched. The dinghy can easily be prepped, launched, and be stowed away when finished.It s a good value for the money, it is definitely not very comfortable for a tall or heavy person. I would not recommend to use it in 3'+ seas.

They will not accept returns even if it is unused. Very poor customer service and I would avoid this company. The dingy is advertised as a "two man" but it is very small and would be a problem for two people.

Although I haven't put this on the water yet, it seems to be sturdy construction and durable hardware. I inflated it easily with the foot pump within minutes. Nice aluminum floor plates and bench, sturdy transom for motor attachment. I plan to couple this with the 3.6hp Hangkai 2-stroke outboard.

While the build quality looked good, so far one valve holds in air more often than not, one valve sometimes holds in air, and the third valve has not worked right once. Looks like this is going back if the valves refuse to work properly. The release buttons slide in and out like they should, but in the closed position the valves are wide open. Impossible to fill properly. Imagine trying to tie off a balloon without squeezing the neck. Very disappointing. Update: Valves are cooperating, at last. Perhaps requires higher pressure than I imagined. Not sure about the seat, but it looks too high to use while rowing, so I think it will be left behind. Manual says nothing about floorboards, but that is easy enough to figure out.
