Pros & Cons
Pros
I recommend grabbing a trailer for this and leaving it inflated all season. It fulfills the need to have one. The metal floorboard requires patience to install but works.
Cons
The brand is only 1 year warranty and is made in china. Very disappointing. Stay clear of these cheap, poorly made inflatables.
The straps are very short and i had to lengthen them with ropes to close and secure the bag. The strings that hold the oar locking caps on are too short.

Competitiveness
I don’t know many companies that would do this and i would recommend newport simply based on their character and integrity
Having owned several inflatable boats the newport catalina is right up there with the best

This is the first newport in general it is a good dinghy the main fault with this vessel is the self bailer functions inadequately

Will not bail while underway as did the zodiacs
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
The actual holes in the bailer are too small to allow water push open and bypass the rubber diaphragm

Took me roughly 3040 minutes from box to water
