Hit the fishing hole with two of your closest friends with the Sevylor Fish Hunter inflatable three-person boat. The Fish Hunter is constructed of 24-gauge PVC, with two tunnel chambers adding lateral stability on the water. As a result, the boat can handle uneven loads, provided it doesn't take on more than 600 pounds. The boat also includes a number of fishing-specific features, including an inflatable seat to keep you comfortable and stable while casting, a fishing rod holder, chafing pads, and a gear bag. The Fish Hunter's drain plugs help you keep water from building up, while the two swivel oarlocks make it easy to turn without losing control. And folks on longer fishing trips can add a motor mount and an outboard motor. The boat works with motors up to 2 horsepower in addition to 12-volt motors.
Finally, the Fish Hunter is guaranteed not to leak thanks to Sevylor's exclusive Airtight system and Double-Lock valves, which prevent accidental air loss while encouraging quicker inflation and deflation. Other details include an all-around grab line, two oar holders, and a pair of built-in carrying handles. Certified by the National Marine Manufacturers Association (NMMA), the three-person Fish Hunter measures 8 feet by 4 feet 6 inches and carries a 90-day warranty.
About Sevylor The road from Sevylor's founding in 1948 to its current role as the dominant supplier of a wide range of inflatables--such as kayaks, boats, and towables--is a long one, with plenty of original inventions and innovations along the way. Established in a city suburb of Vitry, France, by electronics engineer Berco Grimbert, Sevylor originally built electrical accessories, with a sideline business dedicated to using its high-frequency welding machines to manufacture PVC consumer goods. The first inflatable to receive rave notice was a small bathtub called the Dou Dou. Perfect for postwar France, the inflatable tub was portable, convenient, practical, easy to clean, durable, and, best of all, affordable.
After moving to the picturesque Alsatian village of Buhl, the company expanded into developing valves, pumps, boats, inflatable pools, and a variety of water toys. In the ensuing years, Sevylor first developed a PVC that had "memory"--meaning it could return to its original shape regardless of temperature--and then made history by releasing an inflatable pool mattress with a headrest and circular pockets. In 1986, the company invented the Ski Bob, a real turning point in the evolution of the towables business. Today, Sevylor's innovative designs include tenders, hunting and fishing boats, specialty boats and kayaks, towables, snow tubes, air beds, pool floats, river tubes, swim and sport rings, and more.
Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism
This raft is good for 3 small kids or two small adults. Valves are not easy to inflate. One valve is located on bottom of raft, making ir easy to open if raft runs aground. Quality is good, you do need a foot pump to inflate. Would not feel comfortable with fish hooks inside this vinyl raft.
