Sea Eagle Fold Cat passes Black Ops testing! Striper, Fluke and ...

 

I want to talk about my new boat! I currently own 2 Wilderness Brand Kayaks and a Malibu Mini X sit on top Kayak, an Uncle Bucks Float Tube a 25 foot Well Craft Sportsman a 14 foot fiberglass fishing boat and my brand new SEA EAGLE FOLD CAT!

I wanted something different, something fun to fish from a very quiet small stealthy craft, a boat that was easy to use but versatile enough to fish salt water bays and estuaries, tidal and fresh water rivers, lakes and ponds. I wanted a boat that had little to no stress factor! After owning way over a dozen different boats I know boating can be stressful.

I searched the web and became fascinated with the Sea Eagle Fold Cat! I watched every video read every review and spent a good month searching around before I pulled the trigger and purchased the Sea Eagle Fold Cat 375 fc, it came with a 180 trial period, how could I go wrong!

 

 

My plans were to be able to have the boat inflated and totally set up for any particular mission, so I could very quickly be out on the water.

Also to have the versatility to carry into a remote area and inflate on the spot, or pack in the trunk of a car! I was delighted when my Fold Cat arrived the day after I ordered it!

The first thing I did was inflate the boat using a 12 volt air compressor, it took only minutes to inflate and the aluminum floor slats are already in place when its inflated.

It was amazing, Cecil Hodge is a genius! I began testing the new Sea Eagle Fold Cat that very same day! I wanted to be familiar with the handling so I took It to small pond for a test, I inflated it at the pond using the bellows I purchased through Sea Eagle and again it only took minutes to inflate!

I slapped an old Minn Kota electric motor I had kicking around onto the rugged motor mount that came in my Sea Eagle Package. It was a little windy that day and the Sea Eagle performed fine, any boat has trouble in winds and the captain must develop the skills required for the handling of each boat. I can see an unskilled handler possibly having some problems with this craft in wind. It was very quiet and Black Opsie, I motored through 9″ of water, I  push poled way back into the swamps and shallower water, it was quiet and stealthy!
