Product Description
Hit the fishing hole with five of your closest friends with the Sevylor Fish Hunter inflatable six-person boat. The Fish Hunter is constructed of 32-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 1,200 pounds. The boat also includes a number of fishing-specific features, including two inflatable seats to keep you comfortable and stable while casting, two fishing rod holders, chafing pads, and a gear bag. The Fish Hunter's drain plugs help you keep water from building up, while the four 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 3 horsepower, and also includes bow and stern fittings and a battery pouch for an electric motor.
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 six-person Fish Hunter measures 11 feet 9 inches by 5 feet 7 inches and carries a 90-day warranty.
I bought this boat a few months ago, to hit the local lakes and reservoirs, where they dont allow large boats, much less powered boats, other than electric.
I also bought the boat boot, a mini-kota electric motor, and of-course a deep cycle marine battery.
First day out, perfect, inflated easily although, with the boot on, it is alittle of a challenge. We fished all day on it, and within a few minutes in the water, we were landing bass. Now we fish in these lakes throughout the summer, in our kayak, but we cant with our boat, cause its too large.
The sevylor is perfect, I did buy an extra large duffle bag to store it in, it inflates easily with an electric pump, and deflates easily as well. You do need a foot pump or high capacity double throw, hand pump to top it off, the electric pumps wont do.
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.
