does water seep into the raft during use?

I have not been able to put raft in the water yet, but I would be very surprised if water would come in. Have only inflated it in our family room.

I have not had the problem other than when I get into the boat from the bank. I have only had it on lakes and it stays pretty dry.

No, only if you are in heavy rapids or waves of water. other than that the boat stays pretty dry with the exception of getting in/out of the boat while in the water or you splash water into the boat with the Oars. This is an excellent buy and well worth the $$ me and my family of 4 fit with enough room for 2 children or 1 young adult more. I used an outboard trolling motor down the Stanislaus river and had a blast. Oars are cheap though you may want to purchase better ones.

Water comes in but the raft holds the dog well. Little dogs could probably stay dry.

it can get wet if thats what you mean...it is meshed at the bottom to alow sand to flow through.. and moisture to evaporate...hope this helps

Slightly, the roof is like a lid on hinges that opens up. It does have a lip all the way around the perumeter that would allow water to pool up.

As far as I have seen, yes. We haven't had any problems with water soaking through and have been very happy with it.

Yes. NO water gets through the one I have. It will actually puddle up in the lower areas.

Yes it does. I have not used it during heavy rain but have used it several times in light to moderate rainfall with no issues. No leaking through the canvas at all. Very pleased.

Water can get in if submerged. Feet stay dry if walking around on a wet surface.

Yes it does. The only down side is it holds less water than you would expect

Float is a really nice float, but don't recall a rope being attached. It's actually possible to get into this float and raft around without getting wet for what that's worth.

Yes. We filled our 's with water just in case we wanted to move it later. But they suggest filling it with either sand or water.

Yes, to let water out, breathability...and yes, water could get in. I would suggest not setting it down in standing water or where water would accumulate if possible.

I have not had a problem at all with water getting in. Ours is on an open patio, subject to all elements of weather, rain, snow, sleet, ice (OHIO!) and have never gotten water in it. It's a great storage box!

I have 4 of these rafts, (along with a few other make and models) we use them to float down a river that flows from a lake we live on. 3-4 times a summer we'll invite 15 to 25 guests each trip I only use a shop vac to inflate the rafts, you wouldn't use an air compressor (high pressure) to fill them, if you do, be very careful not to overfill. It's more volume and feel than pressure. When all 3 chambers are fairly rigid, you have enough air in them.

The water still goes through but not as bad. Their is a plastic containment inside the pack that catches a majority of the liquid, overall I really love this back pack but I wish it was 100% leak proof .

Usually, but not always! In heavy rain at highway speed, some water got in, probably from the undersurface where the clamps for the roof rack exit. There are flaps that cover this area, sealed with Velcro, but I believe this is where the small amount of water came in. As a precaution we always put a garbage bag over the luggage in the front of the carrier.

No, the water that DampRid absorbs is from the air ;) just place the boots close to a space heater to get dry faster ;)
