WILDFISH FLOATBOAT INFORMATION SHEET.
The Wildfish Floatboats are designed and built to be the most practical, robust, and useful portable fishing craft money can buy. They allow you to reach and fish waters that are beyond the access of shore based anglers and even some boat fishermen. They are also just a hell of a lot of fun to fish out of.
Built from a Polyurethane alloy material with an 1100 dtex polyester reinforcing.
The boat and all fittings collapse down into a sealable rugged backpack that can be stored in a cupboard, taken on a plane, carried in the boot of a small car, on a mountain bike or a motorbike. Packed up it only weighs 15 kilos.
Come with a foot pump (inflation time around 7 minutes) but can also be inflated in 2 minutes with a car compressor.
Built with three air chambers including the seat. Seams are all high frequency electronically welded.
Can be rowed forwards or backward and are highly manoeuvrable. A good rower can travel faster than walking pace. Considerable distances can be covered.
When fishing the oars are folded away and just the fins are used, leaving your hands completely free. When you hook a fish you use the fins to manoeuvre.
When rowing, or travelling down rapids, there's a strap you put your feet up onto so they aren't dragging in the water. Rated to grade 3 rapids. (Dependant on river water levels and rafter's experience of course).
The seat is inflated and self draining - you are around 15cms off the water. There's an inflatable, adjustable backrest included - 36 cms high, one size fits all.
They have a carrying capacity of 200 kilos yet weigh just under 8 kilos when ready to fish. Length (inflated) 2.3 metres Width (inflated) 1.3 metres
A stripping apron lies across your lap for the fly line (also catches anything you drop!).
Comes with two x two piece oars that fit into a carry bag when stowed, and are positioned on pin rowlocks when in use - held on by a lock nut.
The Wildfish floatboats have gear straps for two rods and stainless steel "D" rings for attaching anchors and ropes.
Comes with a 5 year warranty on any manufacturing defects. Repair kit is included. Price $1850 - does not include postage. Special Floatboat fins ARE NOT INCLUDED.
