Awesome boat. Really good design. Took it down to Sea of Cortez in Mexico and had an absolute blast launching from little remote beaches. Thanks guys you rule
I think this will be perfect...we bought it after the season ended so we never got to use it in the water but it works perfectly on land...ha ha..
Thank You

While I won't be able to actually use the True Kit Navigator for a few months, I have inflated and deflated it a few times. It looks very well made and did not take long to get ready for use or to return to its storage bags. The True Kit team has been a pleasure to work with throughout the process.
I would really give this a 4.5 stars.
The only negative I could say is, I wish it had a lightweight non punctured wheels on it. It was a little difficult to blow up the tire wheels. The valves was difficult to get a hold off for tire inflation.
Other than that, The simple design is very clever and elegant. It works really well.
Thank you.
Hi David thanks for the feedback. When we designed our Quicklok wheels we did and lot of R&D and tested many different types of tires both 'hard' wheels and pnuematic wheels. We tested in a variety of terrain including roads, rocks, beaches, esturaries. What we found was the pnuematic wheels were vastly superior at getting over terrain and much more comfortable for the person pulling the boat. The advantage of being able to adjust tire pressure for the type of use is also great as you can drop pressure for very soft sand conditions (increasing surface area). If you would like we can supply 'hard' Railblaza wheels of the same diameter and they will fit straight into the Quickloks - just let us know. Cheers Rod
Very pleased with my new true kit navigator. Great craftsmanship and easy to inflate. Very stable and works nicely with my E propulsion outboard. Also holds quite a bit of payload. Definitely recommend!
The product is as exceptional as the customer service! My first Truekit Discovery Inflatable Catamaran Landing Craft unfortunately arrived damaged during shipping. I reached out to customer service via email and was pleasantly surprised to receive a call almost immediately. The representative was incredibly helpful, promptly providing a return shipping label and ensuring a replacement hull was shipped to me within a week. Their efficiency and professionalism turned what could have been a frustrating experience into a seamless resolution. Highly impressed!
Love the inflatable bottom, the stability of it, and its speed. Planes better than our old dinghy with a 5 hp engine, and will plane easily with 2 people. Looks well built, but only time will tell...
Love the quality but trying to get the engine cavitation resolved.
Excellent dinghy! Rowing is so easy and stable.
I am very impressed with the design, and quality of manufacturing that went into the True Kit Discovery. A friend had a different True Kit model and after looking it over then researching the competition I felt comfortable enough to place an order. Now that I’ve been using my boat I’m even more impressed that the designers were themselves experienced boaters and thought of everything. On top of that, the quality of materials used and product assembly are best-in-class. Knowledgeable and responsive sales and customer support staff. All round excellence! at True Kit!
After a couple of weeks of use, I can say that the tender overall is good. I only found the issue that in choppy sea you get definitively wet (with my old keeled tender it almost never happens).
In advance the tender is really light and stable and can reach a reasonable speed with 6hp and 2 people. Also, the material and the buckles look really strong.
The customer service is excellent.
You can tell that someone has put some thought into it. The boat is a lot of fun and the quality is great.
Not used it yet but we inflated it and deflated it and stowed it . Perfect. Impressive looking. Mercury 2.5 is our new engine of choice. Way within guidelines. The tender will partner with our Atlas25 Trawler. Rooftop inflated dinghy under way. Needed a light dinghy, this fits our needs:). Texas USA. Randy/Gini
I costs a bit more because it is better in every way. Design, materials, construction. Top shelf.
Had researched different inflatable boats. Many said this one is the best. Have taken it out with a trolling motor so far. Very solid, stable, and easy to get ready. Definitely recommend an electric pump with auto stop. Fast shipping to the US. Great features.
Have used cheap dinghy wheels before that were a pain compared to how easy the Truekit wheels are.
We’ve had our Discovery 330 for about a month and I am really pleased. It does about 12kts with 5hp outboard and 300lbs onboard. The beach wheels work great
Excellent design and high quality stainless used throughout. Easy install, although the bolts supplied to mount the wheels to the transom were not long enough. It did take some effort finding SS bolts long enough (the company could not supply). Regardless, very happy with the purchase and the equipment.
Love that no water ever stays inside. 4.0 landing craft causes using a honda 9.9hp outboard. My dog loves the ease of getting in and out as well as a stable platform for her feet.
I bought the 2.5 … best inflatable I have had so far. I wish I could place the seat aft about a foot for motoring and where currently “as built” for rowing. I wish the supplied oars were a little longer. It’s a bit noiser towing due to the water slapping on the “tunnel” under the body of the boat between the tubes. This sounds like a lot of crit. But make no mistake, it is I think the best airfloor small tender on market currently. Including to my eye, actually almost handsome in shape fit and finish - for an inflatable.
Installed these on a Saturn inflatable with a aluminum transom , there isn't any tolerance for any deviation from the template so measure EXACTLY when drilling holes or they will not go on .
