Folding Pontoon Boat

Review of the best foldable pontoon boat : SeaEagle FoldCat 375fc

Pontoon boats are a great way to get to places where fish are hiding. But who has 35-40 minutes to spare to put their boat together? Most rowing frames take that length of time to assemble. The SeaEagle.com FoldCat has a unique folding support system that can be inflated and assembled in 5 minutes by one person!

The FoldCat 375fc folding pontoon boat will take up to a 3 hp gas engine but motors very well with a small electric motor. With a 3 hp gas engine this folding pontoon boat can achieve 8 knots. Two swivel seats rotate 360 degrees to allow you to turn and follow the fish wherever they swim. The seats have comfortable cushions and provide sturdy back support.

Unlike other pontoon boats, the FoldCat 375fc features a 1000 denier reinforced inflatable hull - just like the SeaEagle Sport Boats that take 40 hp engines.

Cheaper pontoon boats are built with a thin bladder which is encased in a heavy but porous outer bag. This makes for a much heavier boat with two hulls. The outer, porous hull often remains waterlogged and can become a breeding ground for bacteria.

Two-man pontoon boats with this system can weigh 125lbs when dry, and over 150lbs when waterlogged. By comparison, the FoldCat hull is an easy-to-carry 75lbs.

Another feature of the FoldCat is the stability provided by its super buoyant 16" widely spaced pontoons and 4'6" beam.

Because the Foldcat has a full floor you'll have much more usable space and be able to carry more fishing Fisherman standing on FoldCatgear than in an ordinary pontoon fishing boat - and you don't have to worry about dropping gear. The floor will catch it.

Using the optional Seat Pedestal gives the angler a better perspective in sight fishing. The subtle changes in depth, water clarity, or bottom composition are easily viewed from the deck of a FoldCat.

We're delighted to be able to recommend the SeaEagle FoldCat folding pontoon boat.
