You've probably figured it out by now, but for others watching this video, when building the boat the correct order would be: 1- Unroll the boat and partially inflate the hull chambers. 2- Install the floor boards in the order you did in the video. 3- Install the floor stringers. (I doesn't appear that you used them at all in the video because the aluminum floor sections had buckled upwards during your final inflation, partly because you inflated the keel too soon. Properly installed stringers and correct order of inflation would prevent this.) 4- Inflate the hull chambers to final pressure. 5- Inflate the keel chamber to final pressure.
Hi Malissa, Yes, I’ve used the oars multiple times and it works well. I started out by rowing backward and you have to use both oars. The oars are locked in place which makes it nice. Best to have a trolling motor and a small marine battery, but it's good to practice rowing in case the battery dies, which happened to me on several occasions while in the middle of the lake.
Hi Edgar, I am not familiar with saltwater law. I used mine in freshwater lakes, and ponds which not required to register. However, if you are in federal water, like salt water, and a big river like snake river that runs for miles probably a good idea to check with your local boating store. They would know more about it. Please enjoy your boating my friend.
This is the best pontoon boat ever for me. I've gone over gravel and some sharply pointed tree stumps, which I thought would puncture my boat. There was no harm. I still have it and love it.
Good question. The boat is folded and stashed away, so I'm not sure. I try to rewatch the video. If you're talking about the metal decal, I believe it has weight info on it, and I think the serial number/VIN on it as well.

Thank you! Appreciate your feedback.
Where are the 2 aluminum side joiners of de aluminum floor?
Good question. I had it but forgot to capture it in the video.
Nice bro.. how long that battery last..?? .. thanks bro..
I troll for about an hour then anchored in one place to fish, so I do not truly know how long it lasts. I would say a couple of hours at least.
Thanks bro , I'll get one it's Mercury .. ready for pond or small lake..👍👍

Hello! Have you ever used the oars and rowed it? If so, how does it do?
Hi Malissa, Yes, I’ve used the oars multiple times and it works well. I started out by rowing backward and you have to use both oars. The oars are locked in place which makes it nice.

A smart man.
Thanks, Sis! Sorry for the late response.
Hi do I need to register this Bris boat 8.2ft if I'm using a electric motor for saltwater

most states require Registration IF you have a Motor attached....gas or electric.
Thanks, Mike.
still using this? how's the quality?
This is the best pontoon boat ever for me. I've gone over gravel and some sharply pointed tree stumps, which I thought would puncture my boat. There was no harm. I still have it and love it.
hi is that a vin number on the back of the transom?
Good question. The boat is folded and stashed away, so I'm not sure. I try to rewatch the video. If you're talking about the metal decal, I believe it has weight info on it, and I think the serial number/VIN on it as well.
Hey, what kind of air pump is that?
Sevylor SUP and Water Sport Electric Pump, 12V, 15-PSI
Make sure you have a light jacket.
Yes, life jacket is required. I always have a couple in the boat. Thanks!
