Sea Eagle FSK16 Inflatable Fishing Boat Reviews

Sea Eagle... I purchased my FSK-16 in May of 2020 and have taken it out to multiple lakes throughout the summer. The whole process from ordering online to receiving the boat went very smooth. I am totally and completely happy with the construction quality of this skiff. It is extremely stable for fishing with two full size men. Sea Eagle was outstanding in taking care of a premature failure of the Watersnake Trolling motor I purchased. A replacement was sent out immediately. I do a lot of camping and this boats dimensions have made it possible to store and transport the skiff and all the accessory's over the top of two full size Quads in a 16 X 7 foot trailer. This allows me to keep the boat inflated while in storage and in transit. I get a lot of "WOW's" on being able to bring our Motorhome unit, a Functional fishing boat and Quads all at the same time. The only criticism I have is the advertised speed attainable with the Honda 5 is not 16 mph but actually 10-12 depending on the weight on board.

used the boat to Crappie fish on Black Lake NY . I fished for 5 weeks leaving the boat inflated and docked for the whole time . Boat worked well for the most part . I do have an extremely slow leak on one side and the transom is falling a part . The leak I have not found and the transom I purchased 14 SS bolts and fender washers to hold it all together . I also tried to run a strap that held the transducer that went around the whole boat a big fail and did not allow the boat to plane (thought it was a boat problem) everything was fine once I removed the strap . I am running a 6 hp tohatsu motor very pleased with motor . As far as seating I would like to move the drivers/rear seat forward 8-10 inches but not able as the seat is or has to be strapped down . Also the locking Mechanism is a pain so much so I removed it from the drivers seat . It's a great boat to fish out of and enjoyed the heck out of it . Seats themselves work well as far as comfort and fish-ability . I also bought the wheels and axle to move

Very easy to set up, takes 30-40 mins. You definitely need a turbo pump. I decided to go with a Suzuki 6HP 4 stroke(website recommended max HP). Boat does 15-17MPH w 3 adults. Boat is very sturdy and rigid, does not feel like an inflatable. We have taken boat out in 3foot chop in Biscayne Bay Miami and handles well. As expected for a boat of this kind, you will get drenched! Hey that is part of the fun. With gear, seats and motor on, it’s too heavy to carry. You will need a dolly or a small trailer.

Fabulous boat! Sturdy, easy set up, great storage!

A furniture Dolly with a rope is a far better device than the two wheel cart purchased through you. I LOVE my boat!
