Does anyone know who sells these and has some on display that I can look at. Im planing on getting one but not sure yet which one I want. There are so many differant companys and models to choose from. Im really looking hard toward this one though.

I'm not sure what store you can walk into to look at one, but if you do get it, you should check this place out -

$379.95 is a really good price on those. I think they are going for $499.99 at cabelas. Hope this helps.

Ive been looking for them on e-bay and that same guy sells them for $375.00 on there. Im really wanting to look at a few up close before buying one though. Thanks for the fast reply.

Does it matter if its a store online? I know a few places that might have them.

I will most likely buy it online, But right now Im looking for a store that has some on display so I can look some over up close. I also want to lift some to see how heavy and bulky they will be to lift and put on to the top of my jeep.

They had a few at sports chalet in Huntington Beach. At least they did a few months ago when I was last there.

Oh I dont live in Cali so I wouldnt know any stores. Sorry about that.

I have a U shaped tube right now, and when i get another tube, an inflatable pontoon is going to be it. It has SO many features. You can store your rods in it, you can put a TROLLING motor on it... so many good features, but they are really expensive!

They had some in Costco in riverside for $310. I did not look at what company it was from.

Oh yah I saw those the other day. Thet seem to be pretty good. I didnt really check them out but looked at them while I past by.

Going to Bob Marriotts tomorrow to check some out. I called and they said that they had 9 on display.

One thing that is not clear to me... Is there a working station or working apron? Where do you do all of that stuff?

GlobalFisher · 03-17-2004, 03:15 PM

I think some have them, but most do not have any thing going over your lap like in a float tube. You are higher and rowing with oars. There is usally a lot of compartments on it. Most are like the pic above.

DementedFish · 03-17-2004, 03:51 PM

But i mean, you need a work station. Where would u tie all of your knots, place your fish when you were reaching for your pliers, and stuff like that?

GlobalFisher · 03-17-2004, 03:54 PM

There is compartments on the sides of the seat, and you can just tie knots like normal. You dont really set your stuff down when you are tying knots. There is also a basket in the back to set things down. If the holes are to big you can place something waterproof down so things wont fall through.
