This thing is great. Caught a hog smallmouth first time out.

I love the Bote my only concerns are seems like it has a bubble on the outside on both sides opposite of the air fill.
by Johan
Boat is in great shape. Solid construction. The bag it came in, not so much. I was expecting the bag to be as tough, but the stitches on the side handle tore on the first lift off the ground to put in my truck. And the material is not as thick as the boat material. So now I have to be real careful not to rip the bag or the hole will be a gash in no time.

Overall a good product but Bote australia could do better in customer service. I have a defective lono bag, and many emails later, still doesn’t have a resolution. I have clear proof (pictures) that it was defective (strap broken and zipper doesn’t zip properly).

I was skeptical about these at first but once I received my Lono was super impressed. Taking them out on the water soon ill update my review then. But first impressions were off the charts. Customer Service was also awesome.
