but I've been in basically the same boat type for 20 years......so maybe it does but the price is right and the boat has lasted and held up well to my very hard abuse; diving, grandkids, dragged up hard, New England rocky shores frequently. I recommend it if you're going with an inflatable.

Note that I really like the air floor. You can feel the bow wave roll under it on acceleration and it can get bouncy if not fully inflated but the lighter weight makes it worthwhile IMHO
