Just wondering if anyone here owns this boat (or something similar) and could share how long it takes to inflate and deflate using the foot pump. Also, roughly how long does it take with a battery-powered pump, like the ones used for SUPs?

No idea of re boats, but honestly, you dont need a foot or hand pump in your life unless your a tight arse, and then you deserve it
You can buy rechargeable pumps that will do silly huge tents 4 times over for sub £100, set to whatever psi you like, and just leave to get on with it.
In the late 90's we had a 2.5 man inflatable for French trips, hand pump jobby, 30 deg+...given a choice....no!
You can work it out btw, pump output, stroke or electric, v required volume from manufacturer.
Decent hand pumps blow on the up & down stroke.

I bought a SUP (Stand Up Paddleboard) pump from Lidl a year or two ago.
It has ciggy lighter power, or you can use Parkside batteries (if you own/use any Parkside battery tools)

You can set the PSI and leave it to run. I see that eBay one is £85 but I very much doubt I would ever have paid anything like that for mine
Edit: It was Nov 2023 - just looked through receipts on the Lidl Plus app - I paid £29.99
