A Hole in the Boat? Here are Some Tips
During a "small voyage," an inflatable boat might get damaged (punctures, rips, bottom and board damages). Hence, before going for a row you ought to make sure that you’ve got all essential tools to be able to repair your boat in case of emergency. And it’s important that you examine your boat first thing first. As much as you might not like an idea, we do recommend you to inflate the boat and check it for holes before go on water. If you hear a hissing sound, well, here you are, you need our advice. Most of the time, it’s almost impossible to see the holes by eye and the only way to detect faults is to cover the surface of boat with soapsuds and see where they start bubbling. That’s going to be a source of air leak. If there’s not one but several holes, make sure to mark the first one somehow so as not to forget where the defect has been detected. Turn the boat upside down and track it down on possible tear. If there’s a problem, you need to glue a patch to it. Push it through the damaged chamber of the boat, then straighten it and press tight from the inside. On the exterior, you should do the same. Obviously, punctures are easier to repair in comparison to rips since you need to put a patch only on the outside. Hopefully, these simple steps will help you revamp and prolong the service life of your inflatable boat!

What is an Inflatable Boat
If you love spending time on the water with your friends or family, this review is just what you need! Now the market is full of different inflatable boats. Why are they so popular? A secret is that they are extremely portable, light, easy to maintain, and can be inflated just in a matter of minutes. All you have to do is unfold, pump it up, and launch! An inflatable boat gets its buoyancy from pressurized air in its chambers. Certainly, they boast some more advantages: pretty good buoyancy, portability, and innate dynamic stability. But how to choose the best one? There is no "the best boat" but for sure there is a "the best boat for you". So, before choosing the inflatable boat, you need to know a few things.
Yet if you enjoy active water activities or can't live without falling down the stormy river, we recommend you to look at the Inflatable Kayaks. If you don't want to row oars, we’d like to offer you more detailed reviews on Trolling motors.
What Features to Compare
Capacity
The first thing you need to decide while choosing an inflatable boat is how many people and where will use it. After you decide, you will be able to choose the proper size and capacity of the boat. If you are going to use it for fishing on a lake with your friend or son, it is better to choose the boat with the capacity around 600-700 pounds. This option is optimal both in size and usability. But if you search the one for recreation with your family, you need to choose the model which can load around 800-900 pounds with 9-foot length. Large boats that are longer than 12 feet allow you to take on board more than 1,000 pounds, which is great for big friendly companies.
Design
Once you have decided on the capacity of your boat, do not forget to check the design peculiarities. Pay attention to the number of inflatable chambers, the bottom, and valves. The more inflatable chambers are in the boat, the higher is its reliability, since if one chamber is damaged, the others will be able to hold the load without any problems. If the floor of the boat is made of plastic, wood or aluminum, it will be much easier to stand up inside the boat on the water. The point is that the bottom will not sag under the feet, and you will be able to fish with your spinning. The speed of inflation or deflation will depend on the valves type. For example, two Boston valves can help quickly inflate the boat and won't deflate even if the lid accidentally opens. Also, you need to take into the account the possibility of installing the motor which will let you move much faster.
Conveniences
Since the boat is designed for the rest, its usability is of great importance too. Some extras can dramatically improve the comfort. For example, the big number of inflatable seats allows you to accommodate your family or friends comfortably, and the possibility of rearranging the seats lets you organize the space inside the boat. Swivel oarlocks for oars ensure a comfortable control of the boat. What's more, by using the rods stands, you can free up your hands while fishing. Special bags or compartments for fishing tackle allows you to keep all your essentials at hand. The handles and light weight make transportation quick and easy. Also, pay attention to the packaging: as a rule, it includes oars, storage case, pump, and repair kit.
