Intex Seahawk Inflatable Boat Series

Bought as a kids’ plaything for messing about in a pool over the summer and as such I’m marking it against those expectations. This dinghy far surpasses what you need for that sort of thing! The material is noticeably thicker and tougher than other dinghies we’ve had so that inspires confidence. The valves are great on the main chambers, allowing easy inflation and deflation. There are oar holders, rod holders and parts to allow an outboard motor to be fitted. The pump is adequate for the boat but I wouldn’t want to pump up anything bigger with it. The oars are fine, they are neither flimsy not overly rigid - not sure I’d want to rely on them if I were using the boat more seriously though. Size - this is a decent sized dingy that would probably cope ok with two adults using it more seriously and was more than big enough for two older kids. The dimensions are on the listing but it still seemed larger than I’d expected...luckily the pool we had use of was also a lot bigger that we were expecting too! Overall, we are very happy with the dinghy and it will get more use than what it was bought for, we’ll probably use it with confidence in lakes and calm rivers and bays.

We had so much fun in this on holiday and for the money the quality exceeded my expectations, very quick and easy to inflate and deflate, felt safe in it and sturdy, only problem was the queue of kids that formed to ‘have a go’ 😂 . Very happy and would definitely recommend.

Ordered this just as the weather was turning hotter. I have used it twice to row/float along the local river and even went down a canoe pass! It inflated very quickly and stayed up, was very sturdy once in it. Managed to fit myself (6ft2 85kg) and my friend (5ft10 72kg) in this. Ok it was tight and whoever wasn't rowing had to sit with folded legs, but it stayed afloat and we were not too close for comfort. Will take some beers with me next time! It deflated quickly and wasn't too heavy to carry back to the car as it dried out well. I reckon this will last a long time and the quality is excellent for what I paid £42. Just remember on a hot day not to over inflate as the air will expand in the heat, so make sure you leave some room when blowing it up

For the price it is not a bad deal, the oars are not great, the pump is just okay, so if you are thinking of buying the seahawk 2 for the kids to play with over the summer months, you cant go wrong, It is quite a stable craft and can take the odd scrape over stones, It has three separate compartments so if one should puncture it will still stay afloat,coupled with flotation jackets and the kids should be safe enough. The dinghy will carry two adults but it is very cramped, I found rowing with two on board quite difficult, longer oars may have helped, a small electric outboard would have been even better, For any serious anglers looking to this dinghy as a fishing platform for inland lakes and slow moving water, I think it would fit your needs,( check out u tube vids to see how anglers set up their dinghies) but if you are thinking of taking a friend, I would go for a bigger boat, a three or four person craft would be better, Though they name it a seahawk, I would not go to sea in it, perhaps on the more sheltered beaches , bays,harbors and inlets on a very good day, but it would be fool hardy to tackle some of the tide races that go round our coasts, even with a maximum advised 1/5hp outboard, In the box it comes with oars and a pump, it takes me around fifteen minutes to blow it up and have it on the water, if planning to use the dinghy a lot, I would advise a bigger pump, and use the one that came with the dinghy as a spare, and a better set of oars, if money is not a problem, an electric outboard looks fun, There also comes a booklet with instructions, a repair patch, and a small clear strip of material with 0, 5 and 10 cm marked on it, there are also a couple of similar markings on each side of the dinghy , when the dinghy expands , the marks line up, you have the correct pressure, A small pvc bag is also included but it is not for phones, car keys and the like, probably its best use would be for anglers to keep bait in, For the money, you cant go wrong, my only real moan about this package is that you do not get a couple of air cushions which are included with the 3 and 4 person options, I think a four star mark for the Intex Seahawk 2 is fair,

Robust good quality boat

Good Quality and Excellent Value. Can also be used as paddling pool for toddlers.

Our kids had a huge amount of fun paddling around in this inflatable. It is very buoyant with enough roof for two friendly adults. Be aware that any wind sends it drifting away and it’s oars can only do so much against anything stronger than a gentle breeze. But for its price great fun, not sure I’d want to get any fishhooks near it but otherwise seems very robust.

After the first go, the boat got punctured and the puncture kit didn’t work at all. Can still use it for a couple of hours with a make shift puncture pad but it deflates pretty quickly. Apart from that, it’s a brilliant little boat for someone who wants to use it fairly irregularly. Fits two people easily. The only downside is that the oars are difficult to use because where they attach to the boat, it’s not sturdy enough and you end up paddling around in a circle. I usually have one oar and my partner has the other and we row that way!

Bem resistente

Fungerar fiskespö hallarna är lite opålitliga men har fiska från den och funkar bra

Efendim epey araştırdıktan sonra satın aldım. Malzeme kalitesi gayet iyi, durgun sular ve rüzgarın 10km’den az olduğu dönemlerde denizde kullanıma uygun. Küreklerle yön vermek ve ilerlemek biraz yetenek istiyor. Bot çapası veya 5kg su şişesine kum doldurarak çapa niyetine kullanmanız gerekiyor yoksa akıntıya kapılabilirsiniz. Güvenliğe dikkat ettiğiniz sürece oldukça zevk alcağınızı garanti ediyorum. Saygılar.

I've owned this inflatable boat for almost 10 months now and have used it a handful of times. I've put a friend, me, and a backpack filled with food and water on it (which may have been 400 to 500 pounds); I've had just me on it, and it's handled all of it well. Having two people on the boat does require one person to sit with their legs crossed in order for both people to fit comfortable, and if you're taller than six foot then both people would have to have their legs crossed in order to be comfortable. I have a total of ten or so hours using this boat, and I intend to put more hours on it, but it's easily worth the money. I've taken it on a small lake in Illinois and a few lakes in Arkansas, and it was a joy to use every time. I've beached it onto small islands a few times and carried it across them, and it handled that well too. I would get a better pump then the one the kit comes with, a cheap bike pump makes inflating this take a few minutes versus the ten or so minutes it takes with the one this comes with; I got one at a thrift store for a few dollars and it made using this much better. The oars work fine and you can treat them a little roughly in order to go faster or maneuver tighter, but stronger oars would make going faster better; If you only intend to row at a manageable speed then the oars it comes with are good for that, even if you have two people in the boat. Overall I would recommend this to someone who wants a basic inflatable row boat in order to get out on the water and have some fun; if you want to go fishing or do anything extremely strenuous another boat may be a better choice, but for the price point this one handles great and out performs what I expected it to handle. It is not comparable to a kayak so do not expect to get a kayak's worth of performance out of this. It's easy to throw in the back of any car and get out on the water pretty fast and have a lot of fun.

店頭で買うより安いですね。 船酔いしやすいボクだけど、このボートだと やはり船酔いしました。
