Sevylor boat accessories

Post by C. Elmer » Sun Jan 24, 2010 7:03 pm

Last year I picked up the 12' sevylor fish hunter hf 360. I like the boat so I decided to pick up the camo boat boot, as well as the wood floorboards. Does anyone else have any experience with these accessories? First, the floorboards I couldn't even get to fit or stay in one piece, and didn't even end up using them - is there some trick to getting these in there? They really seemed like they weren't going to fit no matter what I did. And then the boat boot - seemed good at first, but realized when I was out on the water that the mesh drain in the bottom allows so much water in that it turns the entire boat into a giant drift sock; you have practically no control, especially when you're just rowing like I am. I had to drain out a ton of water from the thing once I made it back to shore. I like the boat so far, and was hoping to improve it with the accessories, but so far that's not happened. If anyone has any experiences with either of these let me know.

On all the inflatables I've ever used, you need to put the floor in with a very minimal amout of air. They fit very tight and get stiffer as the boat is inflated.
