Person capacity ranges from single-person floats up to platforms that accommodate about 5–8 people. Listed weight capacities across products include: 250, 340, 400, 455, 675, 925, 1000, 1100, and 1200 pounds.
Typical accessories include a hand/manual pump, detachable rope ladders, a repair kit or patches, a storage bag, anchor rope and hooks, and reinforced tethering points such as D-rings or a tow point.
Platforms typically have reinforced stainless-steel D-rings and galvanized hooks and are supplied with anchor rope so they can be tethered to docks, boats, or anchors for stability in calm waters.
Many items fold or roll down for compact storage and come with a storage bag. Some platforms deflate and roll into a compact size (for example, into a 24 in x 18 in bag), and manual pumps speed inflation and deflation.
