At a weight Capacity of 280 lbs it fall's a little short of most tubes but that is not
bad. The tube it self weighs in at only
13.2 lbs. and has 4 air chambers
which is a good safety feature.
Overall measuremennts of the Tube and the carry Bag.
Tube: 45.3" in width and 57.1" in length. Side tube diameter 13.8".
Carry Bag: Dimensions of the folded carry bag: 29.5" x 17.1" x 3.9" (L x W x H)
What I feel is the biggest plus, the Backpack Strap placement. This is when you know someone really thought it through before the design. The backpack straps are on the back of the seat (not the bottom), so when you carry the float tube on your back with out getting wet. Simple smart.
The Caperlan FTLB-5 is not your basic float tube but it is a good visit back to the basics with some great new idea's. please be sure to look for forum review as well as our YouTube video reviews as well when they are ready.
