I bought this set recently too and I liked it better than I expected.
Not having seen the aqua-set with the same loading scoop mechanism it
was new to me and I think it works well, especially for younger kids.
The canopy hinges on mine did not pop off as you report, Joseph, so I
don't know how common that problem would be.
The thing I liked best was the large cockpit piece. It did not occur to
me, but my bf said when he saw it "boat stern!" and he's right, it would
make a great stern for the 10-wide non-floating, non-pirate boats
instead of the rectangular stern most of them have. It's on my list of
things to try.
