Sea Eagle STS10 Inflatable Fishing Boat Reviews

Well designed and functional boat, but two complaints. First, the oars are useless- I use them as paddles. You've got to address this. Make the oarlock more stable, maybe make the oars a bit longer, limit the vertical play. This is a serious deficiency. Secondly, there's a lack of legroom when turning in the chair for a tall guy like me (I'm 6'4''); it's even caused cramping in my upper leg/butt. Probably 2'' more width on each side would make all the difference. Customer service was great when I called about an issue while setting up. Didn't get all the hardware and had to wait for second shipment of that after what had already been a long wait because you were back-ordered. So missed 6 weeks of prime fishing season.

This is really a great boat. I have had it out several times and I love it. The only issue I have had is the oars. I am not sure if they were designed this way or whether it was a manufacturing issue. The blades on the oars I received were both slightly itched in the same direction. If the pitching was intentional I would think I got either 2 left or 2 right oars. I am planning on contacting the company to pose the question to them. That is really the only issue I have with it. Other than that I would recommend it totally.

I like the boat alot but a few things to keep I'm mind.... It takes a while to unload and set it up. Better be in good shape to unload, set up, break down and pack away. The floor boards are large and will not fit in the trunk of a car and possibly not fit into the back seat of a small car. Getting them seated into the bottom of the boat isn't that easy either. You definitely need the electric pump to inflate it. Using the foot pump will take a lot of time and energy. The molded seats are cumbersome and the pedestals are too short for a taller person. Once it's all together you better be close to the water. I reccomend the large wheel set for moving the assembled boat. Getting it under the boat is a challenge though. I added a 1x6 to the aluminum rail and a short wood kick stand to keep it from rolling over. Once on the water it performs pretty well but if it's windy it will drift off course easily. I bought the Watersnake electric trolling moter and it moves along pretty well. All in all it is decent.

Love the boat it works great on the pine creek where I fish!! Only one thing is the oar mounts are not quit as sturdy as I would like when you have to row hard and fast.
