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.

The boat its self seems to be of a good initial quality and I received it a day earlier than expected. I took it out on the water yesterday and it handles well enough for a soft bottom. It does spray a bit in chop because of the flat bottom bot overall I'm very impressed with the quality for the price point

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.

Overall very happy for what I use it for. I just need it to get to my 21' center console on the mooring 150ft from the dinghy dock. Virtually no installation as the floor boards were already installed. It inflates quick with the provided foot pump. Initially I was frustrated because as soon as you unplug the pump from the dinghy valve, it would start losing air rapidly. I found out that you just need to twist the valve tip out and to the right and that will hold the air in until you screw the cap on.It is light enough for one person to handle and not too large. I'm 5'7 150lbs and its perfect size. For someone bigger it might be a little small. Overall very happy for $300.

I had to request an MCO from CO-Z after the first visit to MVD, because no paperwork came with the boat. At the second visit to MVD (with the new MCO), they discovered that the HIN that appears on the boat did not "take" in the system they have here in NM. So they had to re-assign a new HIN, which could've been done at the first visit!Hope this works for you!

Product come with a problem on the welding of the strap that supports the seat. Out of that looks good.Customer support refund the item and I bought a new one same brand same vendor, but bigger.

Nice one, we towed ours behind us the whole trip, though snow storms, thunderstorms, high winds, flood debris and I still never put any air in it. Over 1000 miles. Still use it everyday.

I'm writing this review as I walk home, about an hour walk from where I departed. The oar lock snapped while I was rowing, leaving me without any way to control myself aside from vainly paddling the water like a canoe, and I ended up having to abandon the boat somewhere on the middle of the river. Due to the wave and wind conditions and how far out I was, I likely would have drowned if I didn't have my life vest on (please get one if you don't have one). I'd attach a picture of the broken oarlock in question, but unfortunately, the boat is likely drifting listlessly somewhere down the South River. The inflatable parts of the boat worked fine, but whatever cheap plastic they used for the oar locks snapped my second time out on the water through no fault of mine. As I'm out both my money and my boat, I'll be requesting a refund and hopefully never buy anything from this company again, and I'd advise you to do the same.
