I'm looking for a good inflatable boat for under $100 and was wondering if anyone on this forum could recommend one (the online shopping reviews I've found aren't very helpful). My dad has a canoe, but it's a two person job and I'd like to be able to get out on the water whenever I want. I fish small lakes and reservoirs that are electric motor only. Feel free to offer tips and advice as well. 

for under 100 you might try kmart. best to save up for a higher quality inflatable. check craigslist as well.

For under $100, you'd better look for used. Even good float tubes cost more than $100. In that price range, you are looking at boats that could not be called "good".

Thanks for the advice. I figured that would be the case. I'll just wait for a good deal on a kayak. Then I won't have to worry about air leaking out.

this would be the least expensive inflatable i would recommend.

have a different boat from the same company and the material is near impossible to pierce.

I have this boat.....and it's great. Very very durable and puncture resistant (not puncture proof though)

 

Takes me about 10mins to get on the water

You can score a pontoon, like a classic accessories delaware for around that, gets you out of the water.

I'd pound craigslist for a canoe... sometimes they run pretty cheap:

that's the most boat you'll find for that amount of money.

Yeah, my buddy bought a sit-in kayak with paddle and PFD for $100. Now it wasn't anything special or very comfy is you ask me. But would get you on the water. You could always add rod holders later.
