Dana

At 8’10”, the Dana makes an excellent 1-2 person fishing dinghy, 3 person tender, or 3 person runabout. With a 10hp motor the boat can reach speeds of around 15-20mph when on plane. The marine wood floors provide a solid and stable surface for standing or casting, and the 18” tubes keep passengers safe and dry when traveling at speed. The Dana features all the same convenience features as the rest of the Newport dinghy lineup with an inflatable keel, durable wood floor, a 180° splash guard & grab rope, rub strakes, grab handles, Bimini attachment D-Rings, towing D-rings, and wear patches underneath the tubes.

Worth Every Penny!

Haven't had it in the water just yet, but I can see the quality of the build and especially the care in packaging is outstanding. The storage bags are heavy duty and will last. The weight and thickness of the PVC is proof enough that this is a well built boat. This is not a toy! I am extremely pleased this far!

A pocket yacht

This inflatable craft is made to superior quality specifications. I am very happy with the easy of assembly, use and comfort of the ride. I've paired my with a 2.5hp gas motor and this overall package has been excellent! I also use a standard electric pump for paddleboards to inflatable and deflate the vessel.

Nice boat

Big 18 inch tubes make the boat stable. 3 people can sit on 1 side and it doesn't tilt. Mounting the motor is easy, as was mounting the wheels. The seat bag accessory and anchor are great. It will go 23 MPH with my 210 lb self + 6 gallons and about 100 lbs of stuff. It's safer than any small boat in rough water because it rides on top of big waves. The first time I used it we had 3+ footers. It can really carry over 1000 lbs, as its rated. The floor is hard to install, the trick is deflating the boat even more so the sides move out of the way. The floor and one side were stuck together for 6 inches near the front making the first time floor installation difficult. My old 9.9 motor won't put the boat up on a plane unless I move forward. So I am getting a delta shaped hydrofoil for the cavitation plate. I don't like that the drain can't be plugged from inside and some water leaks in that hole when the plug is removed. At top speed there is light misting coming over the front (this will be a feature in the heat of summer!). The only things Newport really needs to redesign fix: There needs to be some way to stop the seats from sliding forward and backwards and the plastic caps at the ends of the aluminum floor stringers came not have come off as two have.

4 Star Boat

Good, not perfect. First time set up was not easy because a strip of about 12 inches of the bottom of the port side tube near the front was stuck to the floor, making it very difficult to center the floorboards. I slowly pulled it apart with an oar. I have a 10 HP two stroke which I've used on other boats. This is the first time this short shaft (15") motor has had trouble getting a small boat up on a plane and loading the gas can in the front doesn't solve the problem. I have to move towards the front of the boat to get it to plane. Also not liking the fact the seats slide out of their mounts.

Nice Little Inflatable

Dana - new. Packed well, easily assembled, the floors are a bit tricky but not that difficult (just put a small amount of air in). Appears well made but time will tell. In terms of performance I was struck how well it turns - sharply. I am used to the “slip and slip crabbing” of most inflatables. I have a 3hp electric engine so it is not fast, 5.5 knts max but it tracks very well. The oversized tubes make it quite stable (have not had it in extreme wind though, just waves. Pretty dry ride too. One issue: the foot pump fabric came undone as I was inflating the boat, making the pump useless halfway through. I was able to jury rig an old one I had. That said, I contacted Newport about this issue and they responded immediately and sent another one free-of-charge. Took some time for delivery but they were/are extremely responsive. Their follow-up was excellent also. Very impressive there. On another note they might be a little too responsive with all their marketing e-mails! They clearly have a zealous and good marketing department! But it seems, at this point, they also have a solid product and a great company.

Awesome inflatable boat

I have purchased 4 inflatable boats from West Marine… They normally had them Listed for $899 but the would go on sale for $699… and were a pretty good deal… When I went to buy one this year they were $1200 which prompted me to search for a better deal… The boat from New Port was not only much better quality… but it was less expensive. They are my new inflatable boat company!

Great inflatable

The only problem I have with this boat is that there are no acceptable ways attached to hang this from Davits on my sailboat.

Great Customer Service

I just received my new dingy. It came very well boxed and I was very surprised to find 2 carrying bags containing the dingy and then all the floor boards and other items. Very impressed!!! But the best part was the actual customer service I received. After answering a question I had about my purchase, my customer service representative answered a completely non related question and then sent me links to further answer my question… immediately!!! He was above great!!! So I will say that so far my experience with this company has exceeded my expectations… by a lot!!! Next I will un pack the dingy and hope the quality is as good! Thank you, John

Great Inflatable Dinghy

Pros: - Very stable with 18in tubes. I can fish while standing on the boat with another friend in the boat and we all feel very safe. - The boat is made very well. I can see a lot of attention went into the details and construction of the boat. - Boat looks really nice. - Great vessel for fishing, camping, runabouts, and river floating trips! - 20-25 minute set up time (Same or less time compared to putting a kayak or canoe in my car) - packable - Bag is a foldover system that makes packing the boat up really easy. Simply lay the boat on the middle of the boat bag. The bag looks like a + sign when laid out. Simply fold two flaps over and tighten the straps. Then repeat. Cleaning - Unfortunately, this is a little more cleaning than my canoe as I store this inside my apartment. Of course, you will have to clean any dinghy from any company. The positive side to this is the boat will last for many years if I continue to take care of it this way. Storage - Fits in a 6ft long closet that is about 3.5-4ft deep. Able to place all accessories in the closet as well. The downside (for any inflatable boat) - It is annoying to clean after use. I store this in my house. More maintenance than a canoe. Overall - Great option for boaters that live in apartments, RVers, van lifers, traditional use at a marina, or as a safety boat on a larger vessel. I would recommend it to a friend.

  • How Do I Assemble My Inflatable Boat?
    Down Arrow

    Assembly of your Newport Vessels inflatable boat will take about 15-20 minutes (especially the first time). Please view the above video and the below steps to aid in the assembly and installation of the aluminum framed wooden floor boards. This part of the process will take about 5 minutes by using the following steps.

    STEP A: Properly place Newport Vessels inflatable boat floor boards inside the boat in the correct order and attach the inflatable boat floor boards at the joint locations. Watch video above for proper technique & floorboard alignment instructions.

    STEP B: Conjoin each individual floor together by inserting each floor boat (in the correct order) into the appropriate bracket. Once again, watch the above video for proper technique & inflatable boat floor board alignment instructions.

    STEP C: Now that the inflatable boat floor board panels are properly and even placed within the boat (and the joints are properly connected) grab all the stringers and prepare for the aluminum stringer insertion. The longer side of the stinger is to be placed against the floor of the inflatable boat (leaving the more narrow/thin portion of the stringer facing upward. The motion to set the stingers in place is a rolling motion (not a sliding motion). The stingers are designed to roll into place and to secure snugly and not move. Watch video above for proper Newport Vessels inflatable boat stringer installation.

    STEP D: Repeat the above steps for each individual aluminum stringer so that each joint of the wood panel floors are properly secured in place. The aluminum framed wood panel flooring provides an extremely rigid and secure flooring system for your boat. Wood flooring is recommended for multi passenger uses, dogs, standing, fishing, and all versatile inflatable boating applications. Watch the video above for proper technique & floor board alignment instructions.
