These would be excellent for cruising lakes and bays in comfort. With their small size and weight, they would also be a great option for first-time boaters due to ease of towing and storage!
This video talks about features that make it easier and more sturdy to beach your boats multiple times, but your manual says "We recommend the boat not to be powered on to the beach, dragged across rocks, sand, gravel or pavement as damage to the fabric and/or hull result." I understand most of that recommendation, but how are you supposed to beach a dinghy without at least dragging it across sand?
Good question for those people like me, first time looking for a rib. It's a year-old question, but no answer at least from HighField Boats. I saw a video clip also on UA-cam showing how to Repair a Hole or Crack in an Aluminum Boat. It can be DIY, just requires welding with basic skill. Check it out at ua-cam.com/video/ZIRaTn5THmM/v-deo.html .
@@vbl20012k7 thanks , so if bottom is hit you have to turn it upside down i guess otherwise aluminum rods wont stick properly, and after welding i guess it cannot be sanded flush smooth because it will become very thin and soft

Thats what I'm thinking that great for first-timers because it seems very forgiving and easy to park, etc.
Hi Guys! Please provide with a deep review of the Sport 520. There is a lack of info on the web. Tks
