well..... those are even more of an over kill..... I go to the lake to get in and enjoy the water, not sit down close to it and admire it.....
Why do you even need a swim raft then?? To each his own...I personally find it very relaxing and a lot of fun to swim out to the raft with my favorite beverage in tow and lay in the sun for a while, then jump in when I get hot.

I would assume people who have the trampoline type rafts most likely have kids or grandkids who they enjoy and love immensely and want to show them a good time. Never knew too many 10 year olds to sit still very long particularly when next to or in the water, nor would I want to. The kids I have seen on those trampolines sure seem to be having a lot of fun! Hey if their parents or grandparents can afford it, why not! They can do enough sitting around or growing roots in a couch while playing video games or watching TV.

The lake is for fun, whatever your pleasure may be. Enjoy it!
