I purchased the Pacfish 7 about 8 months ago. I have used it a few times on lakes. The only issue I had was on the maiden voyage I almost sank. Turns out the air valves were not seated tight enough. When I got home I tightened them and after sitting overnight it still lost air. I decided to crank down on them. Since I did that I have not had any further issues. Otherwise, the boat performs well. Easy to row and pretty comfortable. Beats a flow tube in my opinion because you stay dry.
