How long do inflatables generally last?

Re: How long do inflatables generally last?

No, I have a Bestway whale ride in the I got because it was popped (long story that I think I've posted on here) and after fixing that hole, I ended up splitting the dorsal fin. Because it was split anyways, I carefully turned the whole thing inside out and reinforced all of the seams, then flipped it back around and mended the split

I like to get the inflatables that someone else has thrown away with a blown seam or leaks. I will do my best to patch and repair them and then enjoy them. Used, damaged, and discarded blown inflatables are my favorite. The trash bin at the public pool has some real gems sometimes, but it is difficult to find them that are not buried in too much nasty trash. Also one has to be very discrete when investigating whats been thrown away at the pool. This is, after all, a private interest. I wish there was a "pool toy recycle" bin at all the public pools.
