I'm thinking I might take out the forward seat, get some wood planks and make a smallcasting deck up forward. I know you can stand on the cross-slats but having a larger area where you could turn your feet any direction and not worry about falling through the slats. And probably going to try a 2.5 HP first and see how that does, if it don't cut it then I'll do what you did and go with a 4 HP. Can you post some more video of your boat on the water? Fishing? etc

[jobu88]

Thanks for the info. Only issue for me is my favorite lake requires minimum 3 air chambers for inflatable boats. How long have you had your boat?

that sucks... i bought it in april this year.

i had a stingray 19ft, but the cost of it was getting to much..

with foldcat i can fly around all day on less than 2gallons gas.

Yeah, that's exactly why I'm looking at a Foldcat. Did you have to modify the transom to take the 4HP motor?

[sbowza68]

ya i made some stronger angle brackets and put on piece of pressure treated wood

Hey how sturdy are the pedestal seats? I'm a pretty big guy 235 pounds and I look at them and wonder if they'll hold up.

[sbowza68]

hi the pedestal seats are pretty sturdy.. but if not u can put on any other style seat..

they'll attach easy.

[jobu88]

Cool. I'm trying to decide if I want a 375 or a 440.

[sbowza68]

the 375 is perfect for two people. but you can easily handle it yourself. the 440 you would need two people to launch it..

i keep mine inflated on a ultility trailer, its quick and easy to handle
