Have had this boat for 3 years now. Price was good, clearance sale at Wally World.
Pros:
Easy to load in truck or trailer.
Easy to tip over to clean.
Durable
Easy to power up with electric trolling motor.
Cons:
Formed seating is too low for comfort after extended hours. ( I installed swivel seat platforms and padded seats from Wally World that match the interior color of the boat perfectly. Looks like a small bass boat now )
Motor mounts compress excessively due to temperature so one has to ensure that the motor clamps are tightened periodically.
No cleats installed and since this is a "poly" boat, no dependable adhesive to attach. Resorted to "toggle" bolts.
Battery placements are fine if your battery is small. Marine size batteries are a bit long.
Built in rod holders are better suited to uprights for a top of some sort and not fishing rods. Too erect, with no angle towards the stern or port/starboard.
No offset stern motor mount for electric trolling motor like what is on the bow.
Overall, not a bad little boat. I'll be selling mine when my wood boat is completed.

I purchased this boat and it arrived in a very expeditious manner. However, I received two manufacture statement of origins (MSO), one of which was blank, and the other was blank minus a stamped signature from a person at Amazon named Nathan Allen (never figured out who he is). When I presented this to the state of Florida tag office to register the boat, they said this paperwork is absolutely incomplete. They said Allen needed to sign the MSO, and I must provide a receipt with a VIN and price.
Well, I called the manufacturer KL Industries for help. I rapidly learned they don't answer or retrun calls, but they do answer emails. Their response to me was the tag agency is wrong, and the person working with me was to strict. Go back and ask for a different representative; I started laughing when she told me this. it was the worst customer service advise that I ever received. She also told me KL would not assist with a completed MSO and receipt. I explained that all I needed was a MSO with a VIN and signature, and the KL customer service representative said, "No." Yes, I have her emails indicating this, and it is hilarious and disappointing.
My solution with Amazon, was simply to return the boat, which I did. My learning lesson is don't buy a boat through Amazon. I can only speak for Florida, but it will be a disaster if you try to register it. Don't waiste your time and money.

the only reason it got 4 stars is that there is no way for the water to go all the way to the back plug. i will be putting some pvc under the seats to fix it. i have had it 4 miles out in the gulf with just a small trolling motor 3 battery's and a solor charger. great for the flats, lakes and river around me in centeral fl. i have had it over a year now so i have had time to beat it up a bit.
