4.0 out of 5 stars We love this boat!
I got this boat for my husband as Father's day's gift. He had hard time to inflate this boat with the pump came with, so we used the autmatic pump we have.
Boat itself is good. My husband(170lb), our 3 years old girl(35lb) and me(100lb) fit in it with no problem. Very strong and not so heavy. We love this boat.

3.0 out of 5 stars More sturdy then it looks
I went on a float trip and thought i would save some money buying my own raft. My husband and I thought a three man raft would by perfect for the two of us and ofcourse a coolers. The raft was alot smaller then I thought it would be went it got here. We had to hang our feet over the sides it fit in with our cooler, the weight limit was lower then what it said on the box...

5.0 out of 5 stars great deal, July 27, 2008
This review is from: Sevylor Inflatable Caravelle 3 Person Boat Kit (Sports)
High quality raft with a slow but effective pump. The paddles won't last long but the raft alone is worth the price.

2.0 out of 5 stars boat is fine; pump and oars are not, August 24, 2009
This review is from: Sevylor Inflatable Caravelle 3 Person Boat Kit (Sports)
The pump is so flimsy that the rubbery-plastic parts lost their seal and let all the air escape on the very first use. I sealed them back together with super-glue, but given the cheap construction I'm sure that it will come apart again next time.

Worse yet, the oars are quite useless outside a backyard swimming pool. After every stroke they must be re-tightened to stay together (the cheap, plastic pieces of tubing screw into each other) and within 30 minutes they had cracked.

The boat itself, however, is quite nice and works just fine for two adults or three children.

3.0 out of 5 stars More sturdy then it looks, July 31, 2009
I went on a float trip and thought i would save some money buying my own raft. My husband and I thought a three man raft would by perfect for the two of us and ofcourse a coolers. The raft was alot smaller then I thought it would be went it got here. We had to hang our feet over the sides it fit in with our cooler, the weight limit was lower then what it said on the box and the oars and foot pump broke that day. I was really suprised that the raft didn't pop. We went on a 6 mile float and it too the rocks like a champ, thats the one good thing about the raft. So if your looking for a two person don't get the 3 seater because your gonna be cramped. My frieds got the 4 and it seats 3 people and a cooler comfortably so get that. Also they are very hard to get back to a normal shape when its time to deflate them because the middle section doesn't deflate. So my recommendation is go for the 4 and buy your own foot pump,and don't worry about rock the raft is stronger then it looks.

3.0 out of 5 stars nice boat but pump not, July 24, 2008
This review is from: Sevylor Inflatable Caravelle 3 Person Boat Kit (Sports)
I bought this as a package w/ oars, pump. The pump blew the boat up about 80% then the seam on pump blew out. Pump is not strong enough for normal use. Next time I'll order 1 without the pump and buy a better pump.

This raft is an excellent product. Once I showed it to my friends, they bought one, too. I think it is the best raft for the money.

3.0 out of 5 stars Fun but flimsy, July 16, 2010

Bethany Smith (Kirkland, WA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sevylor Inflatable Caravelle 3 Person Boat Kit (Sports)
This little raft has brought me a lot of fun this summer. My few complaints are the same as everyone else's though - needs better paddles (which I also found on Amazon, and am super happy with), and a pump more efficient than the one included. I've also managed to spring a leak after the 6th trip out on the lake. It's probably coming from the seams, but I'm having a tough time locating the source of the leak. Here's hoping I can find it & that the patch kit will work. Otherwise, incredibly comfortable with two adults, easy to maneuver, lots of fun.

4.0 out of 5 stars It is OK!, September 10, 2009

This review is from: Sevylor Inflatable Caravelle 3 Person Boat Kit (Sports)
I received it with a cut.. so i patched it (patching kit was included).. and all was fine..

Takes a lot of effort to pump the thing with the manual pump that came with it.. but it works!

Oars r cheap quality.. but i'm not a pro.. so may be i just didn't use then right..

The boat itself is really good though!

The description says 3 persons.. but i'd say 2 if u want to enjoy and relax..
