Seveylor Super Caravelle XR 116 vs. Intex Excursion 5 raft?
The Sevylor is 12′x5’4″ has an 1100 lbs capacity and weighs 39 lbs.
The Intex is 12′x5’6″ has a capacity of 880 lbs, weighs 51 lbs and the vinyl is 30 gauge thickness. The Sevylor thickness is unknown, but presumed to be similar, maybe slightly less due to 12 lbs weight difference.
Anybody have experience with either? Probably will row 50% of the time or use our Minn Kota Endura 40 electric trolling motor mainly on lakes or rivers, generally within 500 yards of shore. Thanks.
I have an Intex excursion 4 and it is very heavy duty. If you are rowing and beaching it I would go with the thicker gauge vinyl, it will resist ripping better and be stronger at the oar locks, as well as the motor mount points. I have done all this with mine and have had no issues with rocky shores. Unless you need the extra capacity – short of contacting Seveylor, I would go with the one that publishers their thickness. Like you said the weight is probably the difference in thickness and the SEV probably has bigger air chambers, leading to the higher capacity, and potentially less interior space for the same size.
