Which inflatable would you purchase?

The monster bass will not fit in a car boot. Mine barely fits in the back of my double cab.

The build quality is not bad and the material is quite thick. I take it the smaller model should be the same.

It seems that the Famous is also just about half the weight of the Monster (30Kg vs 56Kg), so it should be much easier to handle when fishing alone. Just when I thought I have decided on the Tru-cast, I now find myself in two minds again!!!

 

P.S. bigkano... sorry if I hi-jacked your post a bit....For a long time now I have been in the market for a small inflatable that can be handled by one, but can take 2 people, so I get eggcited every time I see the topic!

The guy that builds the Famous and Monster stays about two blocks from my house. And I had a look at both and I have fished of both and the Tru cast. And believe me the tru cast does not even come close to the Famous. The build quality is 100 times better and the design is allot better than the tru cast. If I had to buy one that would fit in my car boot it would be the Famous. We have fished 2 up with loads of tackle on a famous and we had no issues as where with the tru cast you are limited to space even without tackle on it. The famous glides over the water a lot better due to the design and is a lot more stable than the tru cast.
And the best was we fitted the famous with trolling motor and battery with 2 peoples tackle in the back of a Ford Fiesta
 
I would probs be judged biast when replying here but it's because my mariner is three years old, still going strong, pimped it myslef with deck boards, marine plywood floorboard on top of the factory slatted floor, etc etc. it's handling is easy , folds up small yet it's wider than the arc (any one of the renge) I looked at the monster bass but it was just way too pricey for me at the time.  anyhows at times we were four (4) big blokes fishing off her BEEEEHIND with all our tackle and gear and mine alone takes up a 1/4 of my land cruisers load....hehehe. I've never looked back and never ever felt that I should've bought something else.
