    I am a senior woman in better than average fit/strength for my age - mid-70s. I found it incredibly hard to unbend fresh out of the box at 57 dgrees F, which I dont consider cold. The fore and aft bulkheads do not fit well or securely into the grooved attachments already installed. There is one hard-to-see printed line that does not even appear until you turn the boat over. It is NOT part of the folds already made when you open the box. I had to actually stand on the adjacent pieces to get those orange fold lines to bend so I could get it back in the box. Salesman at REI had said launching with arm pushing over a pebbly beach would not harm it, but the reports below make me doubt that. A $900 boat ought to be better.

    I didn't know it was velcro on those straps. I hate velcro. After awhile it stops sticking/holding. Last thing I want is my boat coming apart out on the water lol

      The velcro straps on the front and back aren't keeping it together the snap on straps are doing 99% of the work. It wouldn't matter if the velcro stopped sticking entirely

    I think these are still heavily backordered. COVID-19 has been (sadly) wonderful in terms of finally giving people and their families enough time to go out and explore new lakes and rivers.

    I have one of these. They're great - but they are super fragile. First outing ours slid over a few rocks going down a river in Yosemite valley and got a hole. You really can't treat them like kayaks. They're fragile canoes for deep water only. Customer support just offered us a naff puncture repair kit...

    The second opening of the Inlet went a lot easier - 10 minutes instead of 2 hours. But packing it back up was still 25 minutes and I had to sit on it to close it enough to hook the straps. I will watch video again to check which end should be folded up first

    Isn't this like $1,000?
    Not worth it sorry.
    This thing will be pushed around by a light fart.
    Sea eagle makes a drop stitch inflatable for half the price.
    Or for like $100 a regular inflatable
    Maybe if it was half the price that it is.
    I bet half the people who drop $$$ for this use it once and then never again.
    I've seen people make this from $50 of home depot material.
    I really like the idea but not the price.
    Tucktec makes a foldable for 300.
