We know the boys won gold from the start.  This gives Daniel James Brown the challenge to make us want to know how they did it.  He not only succeeds, but he creates a thrilling story about  human determination, fortitude and courage set against the backdrop of poverty, abuse, rejection, and war.

This small boat is excellent for my fishing weekends. It has big enough for a single person and I enjoy spending hours inside it.
The design of this dinghy helps it move fast and be easy to control. It is excellent for rowing since you do not need much effort to move this light boat. I needed a small boat for fishing and having time on my own, so this one is a great choice for me. It gives me enough space and has a great performance.

Used my new sail with my 13 ft old town kayak. Was initially anxious to go out in the bigger wind but discovered it actually takes quite a few knots to get me moving as fast as I paddle. I have yet to master the paddle and sail together but it was quite fun. Glad I bought the sail.

The Perimeter dock and post bumpers by Taylor Made are outstanding way to fender up your boat in your permanent slip.

I have used them for over 10-years with service and use.

As we come into our dock we rely on the Perimeter fenders to replace our dock bumpers. It avoid the need to deploy our fenders each time we dock.

If you are looking for a simpler way to fender when you dock, consider installing these.

If you are currently rowing, or have done so in the past, this book despite it's age is a must read. It is a great illustration of what goes  on in sport teams, both the difficulties when teams disintegrate, or the glory when teams truly come together.

Thanks, DJ Brown, from reminding me of the most intense team sport I have ever participated in.  This is a story which needed to be told.  It reminded me much of lessons learned by rowing in college.  Great job.

Could be that I am just a crappy rower, but it is very difficult to keep this thing going in a straight line. The review should get better once I get the trolling motor on this bad boy...easy to put together, the quality seems good just really hard to row straight. Will update at a later date.

I have owned my rower for months and found it difficult to motivate myself to use it...This video has been great! The quality is a little early '90's, but I really feel like I am out there on a rowing team...I haven't worked up to the 22-minute ride, but getting there.

What a great item to take the teanage boys out fishing. Low cost to entry, add Minn Kota 55 Endurance Max transom mount, Newport Vessels smart battery box, Costco 27DC, and you are good to go. In any water in California the boat must be registered, easy to do with manufacturer certificate from their website and copy of Amazon receipt. Replaced rear seat with ice chest for captain to sit and replaced included floor for more stable 2-piece carpeted plywood floor. The I ncluded pump is as fast as 12v or 110v pumps. Photograph each unfolding step to get it back into the bag! Used 4 hitch pin clips for mounting transom mount to boat as suggested on YouTube video. Using 12x9 silver/brown tarp to inflate/deflate boat on.

I was a little nervous drilling into the hull of the boat, but following the instructions walks you through it just fine. The Garmin is simple to use and works like a champ. Very nice display. Quite happy with the unit.

This is a beautiful piece of equipment. I am 5'4 and my husband is 6'5 and we both enjoy it. It's smooth when rowing and the sleek look of the black model d is perfect. Great design. Great workout.

This is an excellent rowing machine.  I like it better than the liquid machines I've used at health clubs.  It has a very useful display that is powered by the rowing.  The motion is smooth and stable. The machine is sturdy and clearly well built of heavy materials.

Arrived in 4 days. FDF Newport rower build quality very good, as well as perform,nce - much better than Kettler Kadett I had. I currently do 25 strokes / min 30+ minutes /day using all its water resistance. I absolutely love this Newport rower! At 68, its a great way to keep fit. NOTE, attaching rail to machine is confusing. That long bolt goes thru washer, then rail, then lift up rail to squeze 3" black spacer. Run bolt thru spacer, than rower frame, then attach washer and lock nut.  Then insert the 4" bolt w/ washer horizontally thru rail, then attach washer and crown nut. Both these bolts take some strength to tighten.  Once started, its best to put rower vertical position for easier access.  Tighten down the long bolt first. If rail still a bit loose, tighten the bolts more.  2nd Tip, when putting water in resavor, keep that fill hose IN the tank, or else water goes every where. TG it has big rollers to move it around, and that the frame /etc is already preassembled. Worth every dollar!

I didn't buy from here, but wanted to provide some perspective from the other very negative reviews (maybe retailer related).

My boat also had trouble getting on plane, but there are many cheap ways to fix it, including just launching the boat or simple modifications such as a new prop. It's a great hull and a nice starter kit for a good price. Get the boat, play with it, and wherever it lets you down just tweak it. If you're expecting a perfect mini boat rtr for $100 keep dreaming. I have only changed the prop (<$5) and it was fun to see how the changes affected the boat's performance. My friends and I have really enjoyed this boat.

My dad and I have an old 14' Jin boat with a 50 mercury. Since the stern is heavy it wold take awhile to get on plane. Once we'd load the boat down to go hunting I'd have to get in the front of the boat or it wouldn't get on plane at all. But now that I've installed the SE Sport 300, I can stay in the back of the boat and it gets on plane fine, and I have more control over the bow, which has helped with the rpms and top speed. According to the gps this weekend, we ran 2mph faster, even though we had more weight in the boat than the last time we went hunting. I'm 100% satisfied and would definitely buy again!

I fish inland lakes and typically cast while i motor troll. when i am motoring i cannot believe all of the structure, fish cribs, rock humps that are not shown on maps and i never knew existed. I am going to buy another unit on the front of my boat so i can fish and see at the same time. I also have a minnkota with I-pilot and it talks to my Humminbird...but that's another story.

Absolute FUN these are FAST. Can run multiple units together even if they are on the same frequency because you "pair" a boat to a transmitter. As long as you power them up and pair them one at a time, I've run multiple ones successfully.
