ISLE 12'6' Flywater - Inflatable Skiff-Kayak Hybrid

[douglaspohl]

Jimmy, as PRODUCT DESIGNER you allowed the manufacturer to hood-wink you... get the heavier fabric for drop-stitching... so glad you got a 6" air gap between pontoons to prevent water drag... KUDOS! Keep improving but I'm waiting for V3...

[livingwaterskayaking]

Met you at the ICast, thanks for the overview. A definite consideration for my kayak business.

[bgaviator]

This looks so badass. I was considering the iatak 110 but may have to rethink this

[zamoraD]

Can you make a version that has a hole in the middle so you can put a pedal? It seems rigid enough.

Hi Jimmy, I've just come across your skiff-kayak hybrid and I love it. I've been looking at standard kayaks eg Hobie and when your towing a caravan, the weight, loading on a car options and cost are big considerations. As a 66 year old couple lifting a heavy kayak is also an issue. I see the flywater, the option to solve all issues including allowing 2 people to enjoy getting on the water. Problem for me is Im in Australia so do you foresee making the available over here?

Hello, when will this boat be available? I can't wait to order mine.

[JSabh]

Looks great. I just got my NRS Pike though. Its very similar to your boat and also extremely over protected in the material. Stood up fishing in the Pike today and it was actually easy. Its only 900 bucks, how much is your boat?

[edelms]

I'm very interested in your new boat...any idea when it will be available?...where can I see it in person?

[jorbedo]

It is welded like the new 3.0 paddleboards? or glued?

[bgaviator]

Does this thing have pressure relief valves? It would be nice to know it can’t over inflate

[lakkchina]

I wanted so hard. Hopefully in my next inflatable purchase

[BigGuyIn_aLittleBoat]

If you had a puncture bad enough in the tube that the baffle shot to the other side as it’s designed, is that repairable? Can you get it back to center on your own or does it have to be sent back? I can repair a puncture, but can I get the baffle back in place? Love this design and I’m very interested.

[joshuarobertdaniels]

What options are there for spot lock motors or a micro power pole?

[arkster]

I'm interested in this too. I live here on the pacific coast. I typically can take my hobie revo 13 out a few miles out to fish in 120ft or so of water. Often we get hit with nominal wind up to 20 knots or seas going 4-8ft. Is this safe as a kayak as an inshore option? Are there any drawbacks on having an inflatable vs plastic kayak on the ocean such as being swept out in currents more easily perhaps?

[ADVRider]

Can I install my 40lbs thrust Minn Kota Endura C2 trolling motor on this boat or does this unit work only with an Isle-specific motor? PS I have had ISLE paddle boards for a long time now and they still perform perfectly! Happy Customer.

[TWRider]

Can I put a small 2-3hp gas motor on this boat?

[jim]

Price and availability da???? When and where???? Common man we're chompin at the bit out here. Patience my foot, where's the info Joe?

[theoutdoordad]

Looks great. I’d love to see two options- thicker pvc to protect from fish fins and sharp objects and an option for bow mounting an anchor or anchor pole.

[andyvaldez]

Really like it but can you attach a newport electric outboard?

[theoutdoordad]

Can you do a demo video of how to rig up an anchor?
