About the FishSkiff™ 16 Inflatable Fishing Boat
Sea Eagle's best-selling inflatable fishing boat - the FishSkiff16™ is now better than ever! First, we made it LIGHTER, STRONGER, and EVEN MORE PACKABLE! Now we've added a patented 6" deep, high-pressure, rigid, external, inflatable keel! (U.S. Patent- #8,286,573 2)
Due to the latest technological advancement in double-layer, high-pressure, all-drop-stitch, fusion technology, the current generation FishSkiff16™ with a rigid external inflatable keel weighs only 95 lbs. It's also incredibly stronger due to the fusion welding process, provides an extra independent safety air chamber, and is much easier to fold and pack up. The future is definitely here - order yours today!
The NEW EXTERNAL INFLATABLE KEEL with protective keel guard increases performance and handling, provides a smoother softer cushioned ride, provides more bow lift and buoyancy, further reduces friction and draft, performs better in rough conditions and following seas, provides added protection and rigidity, an additional independent safety air chamber, and increases the FSK16's self-bailing properties.
The REVOLUTIONARY "Roll Up & Stow - Unroll & Go" 1, 2, or 3-person inflatable FishSkiff16™ simply rolls up and stows. Fits in a car trunk ready to go! Comprised of entirely high-pressure fusion drop-stitch technology like that of inflatable stand-up paddleboards on steroids. The FSK16 gives you all the benefits of a rigid hull minus excessive burdens and added costs. No trailer, no ramps, no expensive fuel cost, no maintenance, no storage fees!
About the Fishing Skiff Series
PATENTED - Sea Eagle FishSkiff™ provides you with a NEW and REVOLUTIONARY APPROACH TO FISHING! Increase your catch and target those extremely hard-to-reach trophy fish without the hassles and added costs associated with rigid hulls. A superior inflatable craft that requires no trailer and can be fished everywhere from skinny to deep water and everything in between.
Completely inflatable, portable, storable, and transportable. The FishSkiff™ can be stowed in the back of most cars and in relatively small spaces because it has no frame. It doesn't require a trailer so you can carry it to the most remote hard-to-reach locations where the fish hide most!
The hull design truly maximizes speed, handling, performance, stability, fuel efficiency, and most importantly safety. It's nearly unsinkable and completely self-bailing with four separate independent large air-filled chambers. The FishSkiff™ will support an incredible amount of weight yet draft as little as six inches of water. ROLL UP & STOW - UNROLL & GO!

FishSkiff™ 16 in the news
FishSkiff™ 16 Reviews
4.7 out of 5 stars. (55)This boat is great! Well built, functional, easy set up, easy to store and transport. Have been using the boat all summer and it has performed flawlessly. Sea Eagle is great to deal with. Got exactly what I ordered. No complaints at all.
I am a veteran of owning several boats and have been a boater since I was a kid. Now my ability to handle and store a large boat is compromised by age, motivation and location. I was beginning to think my wife and I would not be able to fish from our own boat together anymore. Enter the FSK16. This boat will easily float us and all our gear giving us a stable platform to fish lakes and rivers. We can comfortably sit or stand without problems. Its weight is manageable between the two of us and I could move it alone if necessary. It will fit into the back of our SUV and is ready to fish in 30 minutes. We bought a small trailer for it so we can launch quickly and we store it in our garage semi-inflated during fishing season. We can take it with us anywhere since it folds into a large duffel bag. It is surprisingly well made, durable and tough. I consider the dedicated electric pump to be a no brainer. With a 100 Amp hour Lithium battery we can fish all day. It’s the most versatile fishing skiff ever!
I bought this boat because I live in an apartment complex and did not any place to store a regular boat. Before purchasing I did my research and liked this boat the best because of its size, the quality of the materials and durability. I ordered it on a Tuesday and it came a day earlier than promised. When it is deflated and enclosed in its carry bag, it stores easily in my basement. I do find that wheeling it around with a dolly is easier than using the carry bag. The last time I went fishing, two other fishermen in a regular boat drove past and said, "impressive set-up!" and did not realize it was an inflatable boat. I am so glad I purchased this boat and that it transports easily in my SUV. The only drawback is trying to stay in my fishing spot on the lake when wind gusts exceed 10 mph. even though I have two - 10 lb. anchors, one in the front and one in the back. Other than that, I recommend this boat highly.
show full review ▼Excellent quality and is a solid performing boat. We have caught many fish and had lots of adventures with the FishSkiff.
