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. (175)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.
show full review ▼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.
Great Little boat ! Easy to transport and quickly inflates. I'm 75 years young and have no problem. Goes into areas other boats can't. Very stable on the water. Comfortable to fish from. Only drawback is on very windy days it takes a bit more effort to maneuver. Other than that, not 1 problem. Much recommended !
I like how easy it is to set up. I feel very comfortable in it

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.
