The Backpack Pontoon Boat

This is the inflatable pontoon boat that stows in a lightweight backpack and assembles by hand in 15 minutes, providing a convenient means to reach otherwise inaccessible lakes and streams. Everything needed fits in the rugged nylon backpack and weighs just 42 lbs. The steel frame assembles securely with clevis pins and has adjustable footrests and a rust-resistant powder-coated finish. The 8' long inflatable pontoons are heavy-duty nylon reinforced with puncture-resistant PVC; each fastens to the frame with four webbing straps. Its foam-padded seat attaches to the platform with a hook and loop fastener and two buckle straps. The boat offers plentiful storage, with seven pockets and a cup holder in the armrests, a large zippered pocket on the back of the seat, a fabric rear cargo platform, and a foam fly patch on the left pontoon to hold lures. The backpack features a fully padded lumbar support, adjustable shoulder straps, and waist and chest buckles to comfortably distribute the boat's weight during long treks, along with extra pockets for gear and fishing rods. The boat has a 350 lb. capacity and is rated for class I rivers. Includes three-piece aluminum oars (6' long when assembled), foot pump, and patch kit. 96" L x 54" W x 32" H. (42 lbs.)
