I have the Sevylor Inflatable Colorado Hunting and Fishing Canoe. For portability and storage, it's great. The only thing I hate about inflatable is that your gonna have to paddle 2x harder because it creates a lot drag. This is from experience. Remember, the more weight you have on that inflatable, the harder your gonna have to paddle, that means more people, more weight, more paddling.

A quick tip is to get a car pump to help ease the pain of pumping by hand, but finish the rest of the pumping with the double pump because the car pump does not give you the PSI you need to keep that inflatable at the correct PSI.

Cleaning up and packing is a bit of pain because you need to inflate and deflate after your usage or else your inflatable will smell bad due to bacteria growth if your don't properly rinse and dry.

It's also a good idea to travel with your pump, you might need to add some more air through time.
