Reasons to consider the Sevylor Rio Hunting Fishing Canoe
Pros
This inflatable canoe is rugged which is important when out on the water. You want a canoe/kayak what can cope with submerged branches or rock in the shallows. The 18-gauge PVC construction is rugged and the 1000D tarpaulin bottom and 840D nylon cover provide durable protection from punctures. In case you do get a puncture the multiple air chambers allow another chamber to stay inflated.
When out fishing you will doubtless have a lot of gear and the Sevylor Rio provides plenty of space. If you plan to travel some distance the Sevylor trolling motor fittings expand your fishing capabilities.
A great buy at around $320 and at the time of writing.
Cons
Whilst this canoe receives lots of 5 star reviews one owner commented “The plug for the bottom chamber on both of the ones we bought came off and we haven’t been able to replace them”. So be careful.
