Grand inflatables - looking for review(s)

Hi - thanks for looking!

I'm thinking of buying a GRAND Inflatable (company based in Canada, but apparently they are manufactured in the Ukraine). They might be (also) sold under other brand names from the mfg? I don't know.

I'm looking for comments/review(s) if anyone knows anything about this company and/or their boats. They list distributors all over the world.

thanks for your help!!

Na dann - prima. Frag mal in den deutschen oder österreichischen Schlauchbootforen nach. Da gibt es viele, die ein Grand fahren und die dir weiter helfen können.

I've got a Brig-Rib a few years ago. I say the quality is much worse than expected.
