My next-door neighbor has one I was there when it arrived. We took it out on the Colorado river. It was absolutely amazing the way it handled. Getting ready to get one for myself. What a pleasant surprise

just subscribed to the chanel. i love my fast cat. highly considering getting this fish skiff for my son. i'd like to see more videos with this alex guy
Aloha @MichaelHenke-hl1vp, thanks for watching! We plan on keeping him around. Keep on the lookout for more videos.
I love the design of this little boat! As an avid spearfishermen I'm really curious if it can still be applied to the applications that I need?
Aloha @ExploringwithBug, thank you for watching and commenting! We hope you'll consider subscribing for more informational videos to come. The answer to your question is YES! Our Hawaiian Dan uses his for fishing in every form including spearfishing. The low profile gunnels makes for easy boarding from the water. Also, much easier to toss your catch on deck.
@SeaEagleBoats i love it! When i get back stateside ill start looking at getting one!!
@@ExploringwithBug would love to see some videos!
@SeaEagleBoats Will do!! Sending good vibes from Okinawa in the mean time!
So with the 9hp how do you transport the motor? Do you remove it or can you trailer it with the motor being on the transom?
Aloha @lilsk8er813, thank you for watching. We truly appreciate you and hope you'll consider subscribing to Sea Eagle Boats UA-cam Channel for more informative videos and new product releases to come! This is Sea Eagle's Hawaiian Dan and I've been trailering mine for over 6 years now with my Honda 9.9 and a transom saver. I strongly recommend using a transom saver whenever trailering any boat with an outboard. It will extend the life of your transom.
Is there a performance comparison between the 5hp and the 9hp on the fishskiff 16?
Aloha @user-Iw3rq8ul9o, thanks for watching. This is Sea Eagle's Hawaiian Dan and are the comparisons you requested. The Honda 5 HP (16 mpg wide-open) yields the following. 1-person: 15 mph, 2-person: 12 mph. The Honda 9.9 (10 mpg wide-open). 1-person: 21.5 mph, 2-person: 18 mph, 3-person: 18 mph. The biggest differences is in weight load, portability, fuel consumption, and speed. I personally designed the FSK16 to get me to my fishing locations in reasonable time. However, if you're not in a super rush. As I always seem to be due to time restraints. The Honda 5 is incredibly economical. I hope this answers your question and hope you'll consider subscribing to Sea Eagle Boats UA-cam Channel for more informative videos and new product releases to come! BTW, I love my super reliable Honda's! Aloha 🤙
How long will something like this hold up ?
Ive had aluminum boats 30+ years and still going strong
Good question! Like all boats it completely depends on maintenance. Our boats require light maintenance like the occasional rinse down if its used in salt water. We highly recommend 303 aerospace protectant as this keeps the material in great condition and moisturized. If you are leaving it deflated and folded we recommend a cool dry area. If these steps are taken you can easily get many years of fun out of your boat. Cheers!
Would like to see you put a 20 hp outboard on it. That could be interesting.
She would fly! However the transom is rated for up to 10HP motor which pushes 2 people and gear along very quickly. Cheers!
Hello, I am really interested in your boat. Is there a place where I can come see this boat in action or is there a store where we can meet and I’m kinda leaning towards the three seater
We do have dealers all over the country but you would need to contact them to see if they have any of the models on display. We have all of the models on display in our Port Jefferson, NY location. Feel free to ask any questions and we would be happy to answer!
Yes, the reason I was contacting you is that you are in Florida around Fort De Soto or so I am in Tampa,. I did call and they said they have displays in New York.
That's a nice boat, but I think it's too narrow for me. I want to get the 14' fast cat with the wider bottom in 2024. But I may change my mind.
Aloha @deliveryguy7402, both are great choices. However, the FishSkiff16 can be outfitted with a bow mount spot-lock motor as well. Thanks for watching and commenting. We hope you'll consider subscribing to the channel for more informational videos to come!
How to do in saltwater and also in a light chop
This boat handles chop very well. We have a few videos on it showing how well it does in saltwater and chop. In saltwater I would recommend using our 303 aerospace protectant to easily wash the salt water off afterwards. Cheers!
