going on a European river cruise - what size would work for views from the riverboat?

I would take a non-compact for river viewing; the compact is good for theatre like venues. You need something with good optical power; don't skimp.

I bought the 10x25 for use on hiking the Inca Trail in Peru so I think this size would work well for you also. Have a great trip

These binocs would be a good choice: adequate magnification, easy to carry. Bon voyage!

Rhonda, in my case I would have to say it is only good for one. I have a Moken 12.5 that is 32" wide. I have been looking at getting a touring kayak, and I have been thinking the same question about transporting two.

I like to keep it at 60' off to each side of the boat. Beyond that the detail is too small, far away.

I cannot answer specifically for a boat because my application is in a tandem cockpit aircraft. I will, however, offer an opinion. Assuming you have an adequate flat, sturdy surface upon which to mount the device I believe you would be satisfied. Pay attention to its dimensions if you want to mount it close enough to read print.

I did see an 8' top by EmpireCovers with a width of 67"-79" and 52" high (Navy blue, $282.79). Might that work? To get your exact size may require a custom build. Mfgrs. must assume that 8' tops will be used on bigger boats. Good luck.

Check length and width of your boat and the cover you wish to purchase. I suggest considering a cover one size up

I'm sure the boat would be fine, but the oars are another issue. They are cheaply made so I would be sure to get longer/better quality oars for the trip. Have fun!

If I were you I would go with the next size up for fuller coverage. We have a 17' bass boat with center console and it fits just right with the chairs removed. It won't quite fit over the motor, and I wish it did. I wouldn't take my boat down the road with this cover on.

Might be a little big. Try a boat store and see what they have in that style. Most are same size

I personally travel with a smaller mirror. You could pack it easily if you have the space.

8x20 are small but good enough for travel etc. for birding I use 8 x42 which gives the best of both worlds but not as compact. You may need to research further for a more accurate answer. Depends on what you intend to use the binoculars for.

My canoe is 36" wide and 14' long. There is a lot of extra width and for you should not be an issue but I'm not sure about the length. I think they do run bigger because I also bought a 10' cover and there is at least 6" of overhang on that one.

I have mine set to the widest angle it has. Gets great detail to about 50ft. Will definitely see out to 150ft though not the greatest image.

Yes! Refractors are the only type of telescope that can be used for terrestrial viewing as well as space. Just make sure you get a 90 correct image angle so your images are not upside down. On a boat it will be difficult to use because it zooms so far that the boats movement will make it hard to keep the image still.

I would get the next size up. We keep one on our 44 foot boat and it works great. I think the 4 oz too small.

Anna, the important thing to consider is the width and the height of the top. Once the width fits the size of your boat measure the height from the floor and add the height of the top and this will give you an idea how high it will be on the boat. Regards, Aurelio.

might be a bit big for a pack - we use it to go to and from the boat from shore
