These guys are great, if you're thinking of getting a zodiac you should definitely check them out.

Hate to revive an old topic but looking at getting an inflatable boat. It would need to hold 2 adults and 2 small children. Any recommendations for minimum length?

I've used AUTO MARINE SPECIALTIES LTD. for years and they are great. They have always fixed up my old Zodiacs for me.

Customer service when you need somthing for your boat is right on argyll and about 9th approximately. The guy who runs edmonton store and calgary is Ron. After 6 yrs I finally needed new boat and floor bag. Almost every weekend every year I've had my boat out and still love it. Best way to go all around forsure is with a zebec?

Something to consider when buying an inflatable. Look at the rear tubes make sure they have the pointy part at the bottom of the tube or get one that has blunt ends. This helps for the boat to come up on plane faster with less effort plus the front end will stay down better with one person in the boat.

Any inflatable where the pointy end of the rear tube is in the middle will take more power and longer time to come up on plane.
