Swimline Speedboat Stinger Pool Float

The Swimline Speedboat Stinger gives a kid the important parts of boat ownership: a flashy red-and-black hull, a racing flag, and absolutely no fuel bill. The attached motor is inflatable too, so this is strictly pretend speedboating. It suits the pool passenger who would rather play captain than bob around on an anonymous raft.

At 49 x 29 x 15 inches inflated, it has a proper little boat shape without requiring an actual dock. The heavy-duty, UV-resistant vinyl comes with a repair patch, a useful inclusion for something that spends its life getting inflated, packed away, and brought out again. It also deflates for travel, making it easier to bring along than its grand nautical ambitions suggest.

Anyone who likes a costume gets an ordinary pool float dressed for a race. Keep the adventures in calm pool water, with close adult supervision for children. The racing flag does not confer a captain’s license.
