An inflatable is an object that can be inflated with a gas, usually with air, but hydrogen, helium, and nitrogen are also used. One of several advantages of an inflatable is that it can be stored in a small space when not inflated, since inflatables depend on the presence of a gas to maintain their size and shape. Function fulfillment per mass used compared with non-inflatable strategies is a key advantage. Stadium cushions, impact guards, vehicle wheel inner tubes, emergency air bags, and inflatable space habitats employ the inflatable principle. Inflation occurs through several strategies: pumps, ram-air, blowing, and suction.
Although the term inflatable can refer to any type of inflatable object, the term is often used in boating to specifically refer to inflatable boats.
Redfish is a common name for several species of fish. It is most commonly applied to certain deep-sea rockfish in the genus Sebastes, red drum from the genus Sciaenops or the reef dwelling snappers in the genus Lutjanus. It is also applied to the slimeheads or roughies (family Trachichthyidae), and the alfonsinos (Berycidae).
A skiff is any of a variety of essentially unrelated styles of small boats, usually propelled by sails or oars. Traditionally, these are coastal craft or river craft used for work, leisure, as a utility craft, and for fishing, and have a one-person or small crew. Sailing skiffs have developed into high performance competitive classes. Many of today's skiff classes are based in Australia and New Zealand in the form of 12 ft (3.66 m), 13 ft (3.96 m), 16 ft (4.88 m) and 18 ft (5.49 m) skiffs. The 29er, 49er, SKUD and Musto Skiff are all considered to have developed from the skiff concept, all of which are sailed internationally.
The term skiff is also used for a racing shell called single scull for competitive rowing.

I am surprised at how heavy the kayaks are for inflatable products. I bought three of them for Christmas for me and my two sons. We have only tried one in the swimming pool and they do seem sturdy, but it will take time to learn to balance and not fall over the side. We are waiting for warmer weather to take them out to a lake.

Really love this thing. I added a 5hp outboard motor and really enjoy taking it out to the lake for fishing. It takes some thought, but I can transport and set up this thing w/ motor by myself. On the lake, I am able to go all over and find new spots. It handles the wake of passing boats well and provides enough room for 2 adults and gear. I bring a tackle bag and milk crate where I keep my straps, xtra gas, and anchor. I use my cooler as my seat by the motor, and the other passenger sits on the front end.

We love our skiff and have been using it almost every weekend. We finally got an outboard motor so we are enjoying it more than ever.
The only challenge is that the electronic pump that I bought does not inflate and deflate the skiff properly. I have not had the time to call Bote to exchange the pump.
