About the Frameless Fishing Series
Sea Eagle's Frameless Fishing Boats are roomy, lightweight, ultra-portable, and pack into a relatively small bag in relation to their sizes. They can be stowed in small spaces because they have no frames. They don't require a trailer so you can carry them to the most remote, hard to reach locations where fish hide most!
Great for lakes, rivers, bays, creeks or almost any body of water. Sea Eagle Frameless Fishing Boats will take you where you want to go and where most other boats wouldn't dare!
Large air chambers allow these Frameless Fishing Boats to support an incredible amount of weight yet draft as little as 4 inches of water. Meaning you have access to shallower waters where heavier boats don't!
The 285fpb and STS10 are equipped with universal Scotty™ Mounts so you can customize these two models as you wish! Outfit them with any Scotty accessory you like. Sea Eagle offers an assortment of Scotty™ accessories to suit your needs. The PackFish 7 features 2 built-in rod holders to keep your rods secure.

285 Frameless Pontoon Boat Reviews
4.6 out of 5 stars. (153)Excellent. Struggle with placing wood platform
Just love the mobility and how stable this boat is. You can keep it simple or add to this boat and make it your own of what you want on board.
I've had my 285FPB since the summer of 2020, and I absolutely love everything about it. I was reading some of the recent reviews from new owners and noticed a few complaints I had when I first got the boat. I also had problems installing the floorboards, but I found a set of plastic Trim and Molding Tools at Harbor Freight, and the wide one works great to get the floorboards under the rubber hold-downs. Also, the more you install them the easier it gets. The other issue was tracking with the trolling motor, which many people have mentioned. I found an item from Bullnose Products, which is a bolt-on rudder, and it works great in keeping the boat going straight and makes handling much more maneuverable. It's a little pricey, but worth it for me, and I have attached a photo of it installed on the Watersnake motor. This boat has opened up a new world of small mountain lakes here in the Pacific Northwest, that I was never able to get into before, and has been a delight to own.
Brilliant product! Easy to store and easy to transport. Best of all it provides a supper stable platform for fishing. I can stand up to cast with confidence and know that I have no risk of losing my balance and end up, upside down minus my fishing tackle. There is not a kayak in the world that can provide this level of safety and convenience for fishing.

Key Features
U-frame Design
The unique shape of this solo fishing boat permits the maximum use of total fishing space with minimum total weight. The hull weighs a mere 32 lbs. making this super lightweight to pick up and transport. This same fact means the Sea Eagle 285 Frameless Fishing Boat is our fastest and easiest to assemble fishing boat! As such, it easily packs in a car trunk and when not being used to haul fish, stows conveniently in an apartment closet.
Raised Fabric Floor Design
Unlike traditional inflatable boats the Sea Eagle 285 Frameless Pontoon Boat has a raised fabric floor which barely touches the water. This means when you row or motor this boat it is remarkably fast and responsive for its size! It also means that the fabric floor has less exposure to any sharp objects. Made with our strongest 1000 denier polyester polymer coated fabric this little boat is a super strong fishing machine!
Rig It Your Way
One of the truly nice features of the Sea Eagle 285fpb is that it can be rigged in many different ways with many different kinds of fishing accessories. This boat comes with two universal Scotty™ Mounts that can hold a variety of Scotty™ fishing accessories but that is only the beginning of the different ways you can rig this boat. You can also attach Scotty™ mounts to the floorboard to hold a various accessories from additional rod holders to a cutting board and fishing electronics.
Deluxe Package
The Deluxe package is super portable and with the inflatable seat everything can be packed into the carry bag. It sets up in only 5 minutes, and best of all, because there are no parts to assemble, this 9' boat easily fits into a car trunk.
