There is
probably no better way to float down a river than in a single
person pontoon boat. Canoes and kayaks are quite serviceable for
river floating, but the convenience provided by a single person
pontoon boat is quite exceptional. You may be wondering, "what is a
single person pontoon boat, anyway?" Well, also known as a personal
pontoon boat it is simply a seat mounted on a pair of inflatable
pontoons. Single person pontoon boats may go by different names, but
that's basically what they are.
They are easily transportable, deflate to fit into the trunk of the
car and are quickly inflated when you reach the lake or river where
you want to float. And one of the best and most
reliable one-man
inflatable pontoon boats is the SeaEagle.
Getting on and off a one-man pontoon boat is easy, too. Unlike a
canoe where you have to pull over and walk to the front of the boat
or in the case of a kayak, extricate yourself from inside the boat
in order to get out, with an inflatable pontoon boat you simply pull
over and step off. A single person pontoon boat is much more
convenient than either a canoe or a kayak.
Whether your aim is fishing, sightseeing, exploring or just relaxing,
a one-man pontoon boat may be ideal for your purpose. If you enjoy
fishing, you can wear your waders and when you come to a likely
stretch of water simply pull over, step off the boat, and fish the
stretch. It's as simple as that. Then, when you're finished fishing,
you simply get back on the boat and continue along the river.
Another feature of personal pontoon boats is how lightweight they
are. If you come to an area of the river with fallen trees or other
debris, simply stop, pick up your boat, carry it over the debris,
and continue along the river. Crossing obstacles can be tough if
you're by yourself in a canoe for example, but with a lightweight
one-man pontoon, it's no problem at all.
Give a single person pontoon boat a try on your favorite river and
you won't be disappointed. You're likely to agree that it's the only
way to float a river. And if you'd prefer not to float the river you
can always add a small motor.
