Pros

  • Rated for 5 people, one more than the Bris 10.8 ft, which lists 4
  • 1300 lb max load beats the Bris 10.8 ft at 1213 lb and the Swordfish 10.8 at 1268 lb
  • Takes up to 15 hp, the same as the other 10.8 ft boats here
  • 1100D PVC fabric, matching the Bris 10.8 ft and 12 ft boats
  • Lists a 1 year warranty

Cons

  • At 126 lb it is much heavier than the Swordfish 10.8 at 80 lb to carry and load
  • The 15 hp motor limit is below the Bris 12 ft at 20 hp and the larger Bris boats at 40 hp
  • 1100D fabric is lighter than the 2000D listed on the larger Bris dinghies
  • Floor type, tube diameter and air chamber count are not listed, so you can't compare those with the Bris boats
  • No owner feedback is available yet, so there is nothing to say about durability or how it handles

Who should skip it

Skip it if you need a bigger motor or heavy-duty fabric: the Bris 14.5 ft and 15.4 ft boats list 2000D fabric and 40 hp ratings. If light weight matters most, the Swordfish 10.8 lists 80 lb against this boat's 126 lb.

Verdict

On paper this is a practical small motorized dinghy with a higher people rating and load limit than the other 10.8 ft boats here. It is heavy for its size and is limited to 15 hp. Check the missing details, such as floor type and chamber count, before you buy.
