The Zeppelin is good in the river. It seems a little top heavy but I have gotten used to it. The seat is awesome and the boat can hold a decent amount of gear.
Thx for posting. Curious, the accessory rack pieces behind the solo seat - would they hold a fishing rod as is, or must you buy their bucket rack contraption with the built in rod holders? thx
I had a cheap intex prior. The Zepplin works for class 1 and 2 rapids easily. It could handle class 3 but it’s a bit tipsy and at some point you would like pitch it over.
I own the Zeppelin as well and yes it does. The material is synonymous to the good whitewater raft material, bounces off rocks like a pinball in class 3 rapids. Never had an issue with a fish hook but I doubt it would puncture.
I can smell the new PVC boat smell from here! Haha
Dude your voice is just like Bill Murray's 😁💯
Would love to hear how it went for you on the river!

Thanks! There isn't much on TH-cam about the Zeppelin so I'm curious to hear how it did for you.
Overall this is a good river boat for class 1 and 2 rapids. It’s a bit too heavy the way that the seat is, that said the seat is really comfortable!

It fits a fishing rod but I am not confident in its security when going through rapids.
Do you always pump up the floor first, then the sidewalls?
I do, it seems to help get the boat shaped for inflation of the sides.
Nice review - curious to how you found it out on the river and what kayak you had before this one?

I hope your doing fine but we are curious on how your river trip go? Do you still think the Zeppelin is a good buy? Thank you for the unboxing video.
Does the material seem sturdy enough to withstand a fish hook or going over rocks? Thanks for the video!
