I took my packfish7 out to the rockies fishing this past summer for a couple months. It fits fine in the sidecar of my motorcycle. Easy to set up, fun to use. I've reccomended it to many people
the boat exploded on me due to tossing it in the back of my truck which I had done several times the temp did not seem that hot to me but guess it was warmer then I had thought and I had failed to let the pressure way down my error I liked the boat but the rowing is just too hard the way it is designed I went to much shorter paddles and that helped but had to use bungee cords to hold the paddles in to a some what correct position I wound up giving what was left of the boat to a nephew I would like to see a much better oar hook up system for the boat and better design for rowing it a good warning in the manual in large red letters about letting air out before transport would have helped I think it was mentioned in the manual about watching pressure on hot days but I guess I read over it to fast
I have used it twice and the only small issue I have is how the oars work within the tight oar guides. I have enjoyed using the PF-7.

Very happy with my Sea eagle! Easy to deflate and reinflate for a quick trip to the river. Very durable!
At first I had a hard time moving the boat efficiently; but I had the blades of my oars on opposite sides of the boat than they should be. Wider part of each blade should be on bottom, SeaEagle logo on top.
show full review ▼I received my Packfish7 earlier this week. I had an issue with losing pressure. I checked for leaks with soapy water and found leaks at both valves. Although I wrote to Sea Eagle for advice (which they answered the following day), I used the supplied valve tool and tightened both valves (which appeared to be not fully tightened). I reinflated the two chambers and it held pressure.
show full review ▼Ok. So here is my honest opinion about my Sea Eagle PF7. It get me into places I was never able to access before. Being a fly fisherman, I need some room behind me to cast my line, and most places in the PNW I fish have lots of trees. Obviously. So I've been able to get to better areas, so I've been able to catch more fish as a result. It is durable so far. I have only been on small lakes and a still river, so not sure how it holds up in heavier conditions. I can fit my water bottle, lunch, and all my flies and such in the side compartments. I don't use the rod holders since I have fly rods. (No butt section) I am excited to see how it works on an overnight or a longer river trip. It paddles easy, and perfect fit for me. I am 5'10 150lb. I did notice on the bottom I have a seam that is starting to come unglued, but I think that can be touched up with some epoxy, or aqua seal. I would advise the floor board so you can stand up. Makes for great sight fishing. Paddles squeak a lot. Only downside. Packs down wel

So where do I start let’s just start I guess with if you have the money for it buy it, it was worth every penny so far I’ve used it one season and I get nothing but compliments, especially with the floor board you can stand and fish for such a small craft it’s just awesome I don’t have to lug my 95 lb kyack around that I can stand in and if I wanna stop at a pond on the way home from work and fish for a bit it inflates in no time at all and I’m on the water in less than 15 mins usually I only wish I had more money to be able to try more of their crafts because I fish all the time and I love this one however I’d love to have something a little bigger I’m 6’ 235lbs and I have two things however I wish I could fix the leg room is one gripe is when paddling I have to sit on my knees also the original paddles aren’t the best either I use a kyack paddle instead as the ones that come with it are confusing to use and get in the way when fishing otherwise the craft is perfect for someone smaller than myself. 4 stars
easier to pack without the floor board, but ok so far
I love this thing. Extremely portable and durable. Definitely want a bigger model later on. But for now this one works great. Awesome for anyone that wants to get around the lake but still stuck on a budget.
