285fpb Frameless Pontoon Boat

in 2021 got an sts10 for when i am out with 2 people- this is a great size to just get out of trunk and go out for a few hours by myself- as always with sea eagle- everything well thought out and placed- Talking to real qualified people in the office whenever needed a replacement valve etc etc was always GREAT- can't recommend this company enough.

This was one of the best investments in my fishing game. The size of the boat and the portability allow me to get in to a lot of places that full sized fishing boat can't get too. Also purchasing the 12v electric automatic pump was a game changer. I usually can get my whole setup put together in less than 15 mins. The only other thing I wish I had purchases was the 3hp trolling motor that they sell for it. I already had a trolling motor that is underrated for the craft so in winds it struggles but that's on me. Being an inflatable you are more prone to getting pushed around in the wind so I suggest having two anchors. One in the front and one in the back to prevent yourself from spinning around. Other than that it's super comfortable for me being 5' 11" and 180lbs. I will say the one thing I wish was the oar standoff were a little longer. From the sitting position the handles will hit my knees if my legs aren't straightened out. It's a wonderful product and I'm in to my second fishing season with it.

I have really enjoyed my Sea Eagle 285fpb. I love the versatillity and customization of the boat. I have added two scotty anchor locks and a transducer mount using scotty glue on pads. Excellent customer service. I am 70 years old and can load it into my shortbed F-250 truck fully inflated on my own, which was a requirement. I am spending many enjoyable / quality hours and days on a local fly fishing only lake catching beautiful trout.

Great little fishing boat. Perfect for local ponds, lakes, streams and rivers. Use it with a Minnkota Endura Max 45 trolling motor, 100ah lithium battery and Minnkota Trolling Motor Power Center (battery box). When swivel the seat it hits the Power Center so added 1 in spacer between swivel plate and pedestal and now clears it fine. Didn't want to change from 7 in pedestal to 11 in pedestal because that might make a little unstable with higher seat. Also got Wise boat seat caddy that attaches to side of seat for place to store drink, phone and pliers. Put EVA boat foam on top of the wood platform and much nicer. The wood floor does not go all the way to the fixed wooden foot rest so filled that space in with removable garden kneeling pad. Works great. The boat exceeds my expectations.
