Shipping weight is 49lb, is it really that heavy? Can you hike (to a lake) while carrying it reasonably?

I'd say it's more like 18 to 20 lbs but it's an awkward size to pack. I wouldn't want to carry it very far.

You'll need a pretty big bag to fit this boat in. Intex sells them on their website if your interested. Ive hiked carrying this thing (deflated) for about a half a mile no problem. I don't recommend carrying it more than that though it can get heavy sometimes. But the bag is easier.

Too heavy to carry on a backpacking trip. Approximately 10-12 pounds....my best guess.

the handle on the bow is pretty strong. As for 500 pounds in the water it might work, my husband and I drag it arround with about 100 pounds and it has not broken yet. It is definitely worth to buy...we love it!!!!..... Hope this helps!

I haven't exactly stuck it on a scale, but its pretty darn heavy. I want to say between 30-40lbs? It's a pain in the butt to carry around in the bag, but it's the best pack and play I've ever used so it's totally worth it!!

I never weighed it, but it was light could hold the bag with on hand (before you fill the core with water). Shipping cost shouldn't be a issue.

I'm not sure of exact weight, but yes, with the back-pack type straps it is very easy to carry.

It weighs about 5-7lbs but since you carry it on your back like a backpack it feels much lighter. I have used one for years and really love it, keeps your hands free to carry all the other stuff you take to the beach.

Mine weighs 13 lbs. I bought mine late 2013 just in case they changed material. It is not Something that you would want to carry for a long time. I don't know how everyone has a different weight? I balanced mine on my bathroom scale. The only time I carry item out, is when I take it out to set it up. Usually, there are more hands around if I'm setting it up, so carrying isn't an issue. Not for hiking.

Using the tried and true bathroom scale technique, it weighs about 6 lbs! It has a fairly heavy, solid feel to it. I hike with it a lot and it does get heavy but the solidness makes it feel worth it

When it is fully loaded it gets pretty heavy. I find it doable, but I am willing to carry more than some people.

I would not say it is too heavy, but it is definitely heavier than a normal foldup chair. If you were going to take it hiking or for a day trip it could get pretty heavy over time. It does have two straps so you can use it like a backpack. I have been very happy with the two I bought they stand up well and are heavy duty.

Fairly heavy but very sturdy. Weighs around 15-18 pounds but does come in a nice carry bag with a shoulder strap. We love ours and have been using them for our camping adventures of 2 years now. I do recommend!

Total, combined, it's a bit heavy. 10 Pounds or so. For camping trip Quite manageable. For survival, too heavy

The bag is fairly heavy. I have not put it on a scale but it is definitely heavier than a pound. The bag is very tough, padded and overbuilt. 9lbs with a shipping box sounds correct.

Well it's not light, u will probably need some help if you have some distance to cover. The web site should tell u the shipping weight.

It's closer to 50 pounds than 30!!! Not quite the weight of a cabana tent (10x10x10 things with a white cover), but heavier than I thought. The upside is that it's sturdy. With the design, the weight is well taken care of with the struts and the balance. Breaking it down and stuffing it back into the bag was easier than I thought, but a bit tougher than putting away one of those camping chairs that fold up.

I highly recommend it. I also do long distant, ultralight hiking. I think it's several ounces, but it's definitely worth it.
