Sevylor Colossus 2-Person Inflatable Boat

The picture on the box shows an adult and child sitting in the raft on the water. In reality with only a child in the raft it stays above water, but with some movement will pucker along the rim and allow water into the boat. This is with an 85 lb. boy alone in the raft. Also complicated to row since it sits so low in the water. My son looked like he was trying to skiing on the water rather than paddling. Also, he was fine on a lake with no wind. But the second time he used the boat there was a light wind. He became very frusterated and afraid when he could not row back to us and had to allow himself to be blown into the bushes (which punctured it) and abandoned the raft.

The Sevylor Colossus 2-Person Inflatable Boat is OK but not great. The capacity is 450 pounds and that could very well be but there is no way 2 adults or even 1 adult and a medium sized child could be comfortable in it. My first raft was sent with a slow leak that allowed the boat to fully deflate over a 2 day period. I tried to find it but couldn't locate it. I exchanged the raft and while it holds air better it does get slightly softer over time (such as 2 hours). It will not deflate and I am not worried about safety but I do think it is a defect. It is easy to inflate and easy to handle on the water.

I bought this boat to raft down rivers in Arkansas.The first trip i took it on it handled very well. i would snag rocks and such from time to time in lower parts of the river and it survived them very well. Then i was going through some rapidity parts and a branch under water sliced the main air part.I was able to patch it with some tent fly repair stuff i had with me (the patches that came with the boat kinda suck cause they have no adhesive with them)Even with the main air compartment completely deflated I was able to keep floating on the other two (about 165 lbs).the paddles break easy so watch out.Not a bad boat for the money.

We have purchased the boat for our 6 year old and his cousins. The boat is of good quality considering its price. It come with everything that you need to hit the water except the pump. We used it just for 2 days so I cannot say anything about the longevity of the product. The label 2 person boat is misleading.It does not fit 2 adults inside the boat. Two adults can barely sit on the edge of the boat. The boat fits one adult at most, maximum to kids under 10 years. The oars are not very large neither but I would not recommend this boat for long distance rowing to begin with. It is okay to paddle around in a lake or so.

I bought this product in good faith and have found out it has leaking problems, and gess what I blow it up and it leaks I can not send it back because will cost more than I payed for it

This is my second time of purchasing the same boat. (The old one got a lot of use and it was stained and had sprouted a small leak that I was too lazy to repair.) I like to fish in small, hidden, far back in the woods/nobody else is ever there lakes. It's perfect for me; I can carry it in if hiking is required and it inflates quickly. I'm out on the water in no time. There's room for me, a smallish tackle box, fishing pole and lunch. I wouldn't take it out on large bodies of water as its very light weight and responds quickly to wind. An anchor helps. For the places I go, it's perfect.

I recently purchased this boat. There are 3 separate sections to inflate. In inflating this for the very first time, 2 of the 3 sections had holes in them. This product could not be used even once as a result.

It's a nice size for going down the river here in TN. It won't hold 2 people unless they're really small and then they would be kinda crowded. It is easy to handle to get in and out of the water.

I bought this so I can work on my pool walls. I weigh 200 lbs and it will sink unless I am very careful getting in. Would be a good toy for my grandsons age 2 and 4. Definitely not for two adults - simply not enough buoyancy - air chambers have small diameter. I would spend more money and get something bigger and better. Quite frankly I am disappointed because I have known Sevylor in the past to mean quality.

It broke at the second use. Not punched by sharp any items, it debonded at the seamling line. I did not over inflate it at all.Tried to return but it was 1 day late!! Due to the bad place it is hard to patch and thus not safe. Can Amazon do anything for this??

This is called Collossus(1) and is supposed to take 2 people. No way - I'm not huge and I just barely fit. And the plastic is no better than the Walmart versions.

Boat is very good quality, double valves ensure no leak and material is very strong. It came quickly. The only thing is the ores are a little challenging to row with.

Smaller then I has anticipated, barely fits myself (5' 10" 185lbs) and my daughter (4 Year old)
