Thanks, lots of people were asking, so I figured a review was a good way to answer most of the questions once rather than dozens of times.

Because the zipper surround is uneven at the top and bottom of the zipper, I found mine leaked at both ends. I applied seam grip around the edge of the inside of the zipper where it joins the boat, not just on the patch sealed to the outside.

To answer your question, I need about 3 breaths after 3 hours of paddling.
