Sea Eagle STS10 Inflatable Fishing Boat Reviews
7 Discount Packages available. starting at $1,349
Inflatable handles nicely with good stability. I put an electric motor in bow and gas 1.5 hp Suzuki in stern clips right along. My biggest problem is installing floor boards and it is pretty heavy overall. Wish there was an easier way to attach transport wheels. They are a pain to put in and take off. No suggestions as to how to improve that short of installing a permanent wheel bracket to the bottom of boat. Any suggestions would be appreciated. It enabled me to catch a bunch of nice Northerns.
Thank you for the review. Here is a video showing the best methods to set up your boat and install floorboards - www.youtube.com/watch?v=k1Gtx38gAL4&t=1s
Where do I start. First off, I love this craft. I have 2 Hobie kayaks (I'm actually in the process of selling, if you are interested?) that this STS10 replaced. As I am getting older, the kayaks were just too heavy and the transportation/storage not as easy. I wanted a craft that I could fish with my wife and this was perfect. I have used the STS for one summer now (14 days) and there is no deterioration (I usually inflate it at the beginning of my trip and leave it inflated for 3-4 days with absolutely no loss of air pressure). I bought the Honda gas motor and it does take getting used to but I am becoming a pro at it. I also got the electric pump with a battery. IMHO, this is the way to go! So easy to set up and inflate. In summary, I am so glad I made this purchase. It excels in everything they claim: storage, transportability, set up and quality. I expect to get years of enjoyment. In fact, I am considering purchasing two 285 frameless crafts with an electric motor.
Wow what a great Spend, durable, easy to use, functional and it catches fish. Great for Northern NM lake fishing. I pull 34 ft 5th wheel and I carry my Seaeagle everywhere I go. 5 Stars
WOW!! This raft is beyond impressive. I love it and can’t say enough good things about this raft. Buy it. You will not be disappointed! GREAT product!!
My wife and I used it at Choke Canyon Lake State Park, TX. We love it. One guy come up to my travel trailer and asked where I got it. I told him where I got and sent him to your site.
I have had my Sea Eagle STS10 for 2 years now and have loved every minute of it! The truest test for it's durability came this weekend. I was fishing at a friends cottage in Quebec when a storm began to approach, I quickly headed to shore and docked my boat. Still attached was the paddles, 1 chair, my Minn Kota motor, and the transducer arm via Scotty Mount. The wind and rain came much harder than expected, as I watched from the safety of the cottage a Micro Burst hit the lake, right at the dock where my boat was. My Sea Eagle STS10 was picked up by the wind, the metal ties torn away (designed this way to prevent more severe damage) - raised 10' in the air and did a complete 360 landing on the other side of the dock and blown down the lake. I was in shock seeing this and had to wait until the storm passed to see where my boat went. It was 3 cottages down floating against the side of another dock, ready to be used again. The seat, paddles, Scotty Mount and Transducer arm all held in Place! So happy!
I can't say enough good things about this boat. I get many compliments every time I am out fishing on the lake. It packs in the back of my SUV and provides all day comfort on the lake. This boat is super stabile for stand up fishing and there is ample room for two fisherman to enjoy. I have loaded my boat with a trolling motor, battery, fish finder, center console, 6 rods, cooler, tackle etc. It's a beast and solid as a brick wall. Set up is part of the process (get the two stage pump) but not having to pay for boat storage or a trailer makes it worth it. The wooden deck was a big plus for this boat, along with the nice padded swivel seats. I looked for months and I don't think you can do better financially than this boat. My next boat will be the FSK16, but I hope to enjoy this boat for many years. Thank You Sea Eagle for creating a fantastic product that can handle what fisherman need to enjoy a nice day on the lake. Highly recommended!
Really like my STS10, enjoying it a lot. I was pleased with everything but wish the seat pedestals were a bit higher, it would help those of us with bad backs. The customer service has been very good, they are knowledgeable and take the time to answer your questions. My dog loves it too!
Love the boat. Is great in Long Island Sound. I actually need advice on upgrading from a trowling electric motor to a gas, self contained motor.
Which is the best, light weight motor for this model?
Happy you enjoy this boat. Our Honda 2.3 works great with the STS10
I bought this boat because I wanted something I could easily store in my garage. It is very compact, easy to store, and so convenient to transport and setup. We have been extremely pleased with it and it's perfect for the small lakes in our area. We have been able to get to fishing areas that were unavailable to us from shore and my wife and I are having a blast catching more fish and just sailing around the lakes. It is very sturdy and we feel very safe and secure in our ST10. Thanks for a great and affordable product.
