This boat will last you for ever and they know it: NRS does a 10 year warranty for private consumers and 5 years for commercial use. Though heavier than the bandit/outlaw it is much heavier duty- I would be hesitant to bring my 100lb dog along in some boats but wouldn't worry about him damaging this boat. The high rocker and stiff tubing makes it stable enough for beginners and offers the performance desired by people looking for big hits. It is very sturdy, drains fast. Commercially we used these boats very hard and they hold up like champs.

As a river guide, I have used many different brands of IKs and this is my favorite one. It's a durable boat that can take a beating. It's got high kicks and is a really fun ride! I love the large d-rings on the floor for attaching water bottles, etc. Unlike some other boats, this one has comfortable handles for carrying. The other thing I particularly like about this boat is the large bail holes in the bottom. It makes it much easier to flip back over and lift and carry it, and they're big enough you're not worried about getting your fingers stuck in them. Great boat! (The two man can also be used for one and it totally manageable, just face the other direction and your weight is centered).
