About the 12'6" Sport Runabout Inflatable Boat

The Sea Eagle 126sr is best suited for those wishing to have more roomy space. Yet still portable enough to pack away relatively small and stow under deck, in an RV, or in the trunk of a small car.

This rugged boat can carry up to 6 adults or 1600 lbs.

*For optimal performance max horse power motor rating for the rigid inflatable drop stitch floor is 20hp motors

About the Sport Runabouts Series

The great advantage of these inflatable boats is their lightweight-to-size ratio, incredible buoyancy, efficiency, and stowability. Because they're completely inflatable, portable, and packable, stowability is increased and the overall hull weight is reduced by nearly 25% with the rigid, high-pressure, inflatable drop stitch floors.

They also reduce the storage footprint by 50% because you no longer have to deal with large heavy and bulky wooden or aluminum floorboards. Making these boats truly practical as a tender, to carry in an RV or SUV, or even simply stow below deck.

These tough rugged inflatable boats feature high-pressure rigid inflatable drop stitch floors - making them lighter, easier to set up, less expensive to motor, and far more portable.

Sport Runabouts are great all-around boats for fishing, skin-diving, or just plain running about!

12'6" Sport Runabout Reviews

5.0 out of 5 stars. (9)
Edward Mattox Verified Owner 11/22/2021 5.0 out of 5 stars.

Wind gust of 60 knots reported by bridge of lions operator while a boat bounced through the mooring field and collected our sea eagle and missing our boat by feet. As we watched the sailboat get caught in the corner of the bridge and the swelled lifted and crashed the boat into our poor sea eagle and the concrete. We knew we would need to buy another dinghy. When the storm let up, I used the paddle board to see what I could salvage.

To our amazement we lost an oar and one was bent and crushed in many places, but it was still afloat and came out of it with a small air leak we found and patched, lots of abrasions and very dirty.

Still going strong. Thank you for an incredible product.

Michael Nowak Verified Owner 4/23/2021 5.0 out of 5 stars.

The service is excellent. I'm taking it out for the first time this year. It sat for almost a year in my garage filled with air and stayed full. I strongly recommend Sea Eagle products.

Simon Pang Verified Owner 2/14/2021 5.0 out of 5 stars.

Two photos added to my previous text only review. Photos were taken on a quiet day of Lake Ontario, waves at ~0.1-0.2 meters. A 0.5-1.0 meter wave on Lake Ontario is quite normal. My 12.6sr riding could be choppy but exciting on those days.

A normal day

Simon Pang Verified Owner 2/14/2021 5.0 out of 5 stars.

This is my second big purchase from SeaEagle.

Very happy about the boat! Thrived in Lake Ontario even with 0.5-1 meter wave range. 15 hp honda mounted, which gives 1 person (me) riding at 30-35 kilometer/hr speed. I took friends and family on fun ride, 5 people (3 adults + 2 teens), easily show full review ▼ go ~25 kilo/hr with full throttle.

go ~25 kilo/hr with full throttle.

We split the waves, chased seagulls and witnessed big waterbody like moving hills toward us up and down!

Super customer support, answer questions quickly (through emails back and forth). Good product (high quality), good company! Will buy again for sure!

Key Features

Seaworthy In All Conditions

Seaworthy In All Conditions

We have been selling Sea Eagle Sport Runabouts since 1997. Since then they have been tested in all sorts of conditions around the world. They have been taken around Long Island (300 miles each trip) multiple times in seas varying from dead flat calm to 10 - 12 foot ocean waves in violent thunder storms. They've been used on the Yangtze River and on the Indian continent for fire and flood rescue work. These same boats are being used in these same countries by Fire and Police Departments for flood and rescue work on lakes, rivers, bays and oceans. Truly tested by time in all kinds of weather conditions these boats are as safe and seaworthy as an inflatable boat can be made.

Patented Outside Drop Stitch Inflatable Keel, U.S. Patent- #8,286,573 2

Patented Outside Drop Stitch Inflatable Keel, U.S. Patent- #8,286,573 2

The outside drop stitch inflatable keel provides several unique performance benefits. First, it creates the ability to turn sharply and precisely in any direction. This is a true benefit when coming to a dock or motoring in crowed harbors. The inflatable drop stitch keel also provides extra buoyancy at the bow allow this boat to ride over waves rather than plowing through waves. This same feature in combination with large rear rounded tubes helps these transom boats get up on a plane far faster. Unlike other transom boats with an inside inflatable keel the overall performance of our Sea Eagle transom boats are far more precise, responsive, and stable in all sea conditions.

Rigid High Pressure Inflatable Drop Stitch Floor

Rigid High Pressure Inflatable Drop Stitch Floor

Our high-pressure rigid inflatable drop stitch floors provide excellent rigidity, structural strength, and added flotation at a fraction of the weight. The weight saving in a 10.6sr is 31 lbs., in a 12.6sr 34 lbs., and in a 14sr 41 lbs. This is very important if you are a yacht owner looking for a super lightweight and easy-to-handle tender. This same feature is equally important to motorhome owners, fishermen, and recreational boaters who want less weight and faster setup times.
