The Fish Hunter 360

In today’s economy, people are looking for ways to enjoy their favorite pastimes without compromising their new budgets. While many activities seem out of reach, others are far more accessible that many believe. Fishing, for example, is an activity that does not have to be sacrificed to a more restricted financial expenditure. The Fish Hunter 360, manufactured by Sevylar, has many promising qualities for the recreational fisherman.

The Fish Hunter 360 is an inflatable fishing raft that holds four to six individuals with a capacity for 1200 lbs. Fully inflated, it measures 12’ x 5’ and features a rod holder on each side, a small gear bag and battery pouch, tie down capabilities, and four drain plugs. This raft is an excellent middle ground for those who want a professional grade feel at an amateur cost. Swivel oarlocks, chafing pads, and 2 inflatable seats top of the list of amenities this affordable boat offers.

Capable of being fit with a 2.5 HP gas motor (in the stern) and a Sevylors 12-volt (in the bow or stern), the Fish Hunter 360 is great for hunting fish as well as the thrills of white water. This very maneuverable raft is capable of handling Class 3 rapids with ease. The oarlocks on either side ensure you’re not left upstream without a paddle.

Safety features include four separate inflatable air chambers. If one should become damaged, the other three will remain inflated to get you safely back to land. Two separate inflatable safety pockets underneath the boat act as a buffer against puncture by debris or becoming immobilized on hard-to-see underwater obstructions.
