Pond Boss Forums INTRO Questions & Observations Inflatable boats?

I'll relate my story here as well. My wife bought me a petal boat from Bass Pro. I kinda wish now that I had picked the Bass Buster type. Anyways, the one I got is the typical 5 person petal boat with canopy. It's made more for 2 adults and 2 real small kids. Here's things I didn't like about it. If one person is in it, it kinda sinks to that side. It fills up with water and you need to drain it pretty often or it gets too heavy to lift. Next thing I didn't care for was the petal system was not very well made and you had to work yourself to death to go anywhere. My pond is only 300 feet or so long and it wore me out to go down and back. A trolling motor would be much more better. The white color of the boat got dirty/nasty quick, but in fairness cleaned up pretty easily with a plastic brush and dawn soap. I wouldn't buy another one.
