It would be fine. Plus, if you drop it overboard, you're not out a lot of $$.

Depends on the range, if you are animal spotting this would be a good choice ut I would suggest something longer range since you will be going to Alaska.

Are you going to whale watch in Alaska? If that is your question, then yes! These binoculars will serve that purpose well. I use them while standing bridge watches in the Navy, and I can spot small ships that are hull-down on the horizon (about 12 miles away).

We had wind chills of 30 below and the water never froze, although I had a very thin layer on top of the water, as someone else mentioned. Actual air temps got as low as 3 below with no problems.

Karen: I am very pleased with my Vapor 10. Most of all, I feel safe in it. Stable. Doesn't rock easily. Takes waves well. Large, comfortable cockpit. No cramped feel. roomy. My seat is not particularly comfortable, however, bought an inexpensive padded seat at TJMax, like one you would take to a football game. Did the trick! I don't think kayaks are the best boat for fishing, despite the advertising hype. Canoes are far better in my opinion. I fished from the Vapor 10 once. I.m glad I didn't catch anything. Don't know how I would manuever with a fish on the line. Overall, a very good recreational kayak which I recommend. Hope this helps. Allan Karen: I am very pleased with my Vapor 10.

It should be just fine as long as you understand that the shorter the boat the less stable. I play with mine in the main Salmon river Idaho and on lakes. I have flipped mine a few times horsing around.Out in larger chop I have extra floatation and a pump. This boat is a bitch to drain if your out from shore and flip it. I have a skirt for mine and that's real sweet. Bottom line it's light and very versital.

Mr. Philip, you sir jumped to the conclusion that this is for still water instead of sparkling. But if I accept your contention that it will be still, then I recommend water purified by equatorial trade winds, surrounded by ancient volcanoes, bottled on a remote island, then flown via a Gulfstream G650 at a speed to 610 mph to my gym. The water should be changed daily for maximum freshness. Discerning rowers might instead fill this rower with a really lovely Château d'Yquem (I prefer the 2001) hand selected in Gironde, France.

I have a 12' Valco Aluminum boat and it pushes it around pretty good in the 5th forward speed. Prob got up to 5 or 6 mph. I never did it for very long though so not sure how long the battery would last doing that all day. Goes pretty slow until you kick it into the 5th gear and then you feel a nice push. Also have not tried it into any kind of head wind or current.

I've never used it on a calm sea but I have used it in some minor rapids and it held up very well. I will say the oars that are included are pretty flimsy so you might want to invest in some aluminum ones or just higher quality ones in general. Its an excellent little fishing boat.

I believe it is good up to low 100s hp. You need to go to the next one up for 200HP. Check Sea Stars web site the have information on all outboards and what fits what normally. They are helpful o the phone too. Call and leave a message for tech support and they actually call back. Hope this was helpful. Capt. Jack Boender

I have used mine on my sailboat and have had very little lose as my boat moves. I have been as far away as 1 mile and get 100% signel.

I find it great for maneuvering and in isles. It's long rather than wide :-)

I bought these for a 16 foot boat while drifting in wind. Using one or two in the current may keep you steady but I would probably opt for a larger size. my experience is limited to 16 to 20 foot boats.

For this price, this is an excellent inflatable kayak. Used it last spring on a river with ice flows still on it and it handled very well with 2 of us in it paddling up, down and across stream as needed to avoid ice.. I don't see any reason it wouldn't work in salt water.

I have it on my pontoon boat. I cruise around at 15 -20 mph. It is perfect for us. I have using it for a year now and it has held up well.

I would say it would be safe if one person was in boat. I've been in some pretty choppy waves and it handled waves good. But wind blows you aound and with electric motors it's hard to get around in choppy and windy days.

I just finished my first bottle. I went through my boat 2.5 times with it. (22 ft bowrider with a load of white vinyl) As a conditioner, protectant and lite cleaner it works great. If things are really dirty get ready to use alot of elbow grease. I found that using a magic eraser for heavily soiled spots works best and then follow up with the 3M product my boats interior is holding up great. The protectant and conditioning properties of the product are great!!!!!

Works great on our boat, everything in my food cart. Stuff is amazing. I think give it a try. If it turns out not right for boat engine its got 1000 other uses. I just cleaned a horrid grease caked vernt hood with it in minutes

Hello, Pat...Here, our paddleboards get constant, sometimes kind of rough, handling from May until mid-October..and have done so for a couple of seasons. Seems to me that your lucky "borrowers" mishandled your boards! Were they subjected to a boat propeller? ms
