Sturdy little dinghy
Ive had this dinghy for about 3 months, using it to get to my mooring on the Thames where there can be a strong tide and quite a chop, the tubes are quite large in diameter which makes for a comfortable and dry ride, turns out to be a very stable boat, very good steerage and course keeping, surprisingly easy to row with one person, the floor is quite deep, also easy to tow as it sits quite high in the water when empty, a 3.5 HP short shaft 4 stroke Tohatsu on half throttle gets the dinghy planing with one person (85 kg) on board provided youve trimmed the outboard well and you sit forward a bit, difficult to retrofit launching wheels, Time will tell how long itll last...

Drainage valve leaking
Hello, a new rubber dinghy, set up, let into the water and water comes through the bilge valve, because you could no longer tighten it by hand, the thread always jumped over. When removing it, I noticed that there was silicone residue on the sealing surfaces and the thread, how about a new boat??? . It's difficult and time consuming when you're on vacation and driving from one accessory dealer to another to get the new dinghy reasonably tight.

Inflatable boat RAB Pro Adventure 240
Overall, the processing is not bad. What doesn't work at all is that the bilge plug doesn't have a seal (at least in our case), about 50l of water got in here overnight. In general, the screw connection is too short, it only grips about 5mm. The dinghy is very unstable and easily tips to one side, causing me and my wife to fall into the water. Clearly a bad buy!

Very bad leak and worst shipping ever.
Just bought it (July 2023), received with 3 weeks delay even if the shipping cost was around 200 euros. Package was completely destroyed due to bad handlings. Found a huge leak from the stern drain hole. A very small amount of a very cheap glue was used to join and seal the two pieces. I had to remove, clean and replace it with a marine grade silicon in order to fix the problem.
Customer service was kind and gentle even if they weren't able to locate the package once it left the store. Would I buy the same product again? Maybe, but with less expectations even if I'm spending almost 2000 euros.
