Sports reviews of Sea Window Explorer snorkeling raft

Customer Review: Great raft for kids that can't snorkel yet.
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars

We bought this raft for our trip to Hawaii May of 2010. I am very...um...frugal, and buying a $[...] raft for my kids was a huge hang up for me. I justified it by saying I have 3 kids, and over 10 days, it was only $1 a piece per day. ;) My husband was planning on leaving the raft in Hawaii, but after we used it for the 10 days, he didn't want to leave it....it was AWESOME!!!

We blew up the raft manually with no problems and in very little time. Filling the view port was easy in the kitchen sink of our condo. The weight of the raft to carry it was not as heavy as you might think it would be. It was easy for me to carry down the rocky entries we used for snorkeling.

Our whole family is huge into snorkeling and scuba, so involving my 4 year old was important to us. We put a life jacket on him placed him on the raft and towed him out to sea. There are plastic handles for the kids to hold on, and the pillow helps them rest them rest their heads right over the window. My 4 year old was a little scared that he could see 15 feet down, and realized how deep we were, but he loved seeing the fish. My 7 year old got lazy, and found that when my 5 year old was making sand castles, he could get a free ride and not have to use his snorkel. It worked great for him too. My 4 year old got brave and wanted to go out into 30+ feet of water to see a sea turtle. We took him out and he saw one through the port hole for about 5 minutes. It was the best part of the trip. We only used it off shore, but it would work great off a boat too.
*We did have to tie a nylon rope to the raft, it did not come with a tow line* the other word of caution that is listed in the instructions is *Do not let the raft rest face down on the beach, and beware or rocks" The port window will get scratched. Ours did after my husband was pushed by a wave into some shallow rocks while towing the raft. It still works perfectly, and we were very careful to pick it up off the beach and not drag it. (it was a $[...] purchase after all ;)

I would recommend this raft to anyone with children (under 12) that you would like to participate in snorkeling with the rest of the group. Sea Window sells a bigger raft for adults, this one would be too small for adults.
