Pros
- Rated for 5 people, one more than the Intex Mariner's 4.
- Max load of 1320 lb, above the Mariner's 1100 lb.
- At 12 ft long, it is longer than the Mariner's 10 ft 9 in.
- Weighs 55.6 lb, far less than the Bris Fish Hunter's 150 lb.
- Three air chambers, the same count as the Bris Fish Hunter.
Cons
- Material is listed only as polypropylene, with no fabric thickness or denier given, so durability is hard to judge against the Bris's 1100D PVC.
- No max motor rating is listed, so we can't say whether it takes an outboard.
- No owner feedback is available to us, so real-world performance is unconfirmed.
- Smaller than the Bris Fish Hunter: 5 ft 6 in wide and 1320 lb max load against 1675 lb, with 6 people.
Who should skip it
Anyone who needs a motor rating, a rigid floor or a higher load limit should skip it, since none of those are listed here. If you want more capacity, the Bris 12.5 ft Fish Hunter is rated for 6 people and 1675 lb, though it weighs 150 lb.

Verdict
The Excursion 5 is a light, roomy-on-paper boat for five people, and it beats the Mariner on length, capacity and load. The listed specs leave gaps on motor use and fabric strength, so check those before buying if you need either.
