12' Saturn Kaboat
Description
12' Saturn Inflatable Kayak & Boat Crossover - KaBoat™
Now with fiberglass covered transoms to increase durability!
The KaBoat is our newest invention, patent pending. A crossover between an inflatable kayak and an inflatable boat, KaBoats take the best of both worlds to create a versatile option. Modeled after Asian Dragon boats, the KaBoat's narrow profile helps it zip through water, reaching higher speeds than other boats even with less horsepower.
KaBoats are light, and run great with an inexpensive electric motor, or a small gas motor. Its streamlined design also allows it to be paddled with a regular kayak paddle, allowing you to get into tighter, shallower spots that other boats could not dream of reaching.
Extremely portable, the KaBoat fits into a medium size bag. Instead of renting a boat while traveling, you can now take your KaBoat with you. Stable enough for flyfishing and casting while standing, this versatile craft is also agile enough to get you to the fish, wherever they may be. KaBoats also work great as dinghies for yachts and sailboats.
The KaBoat's is exceptionally stable design allows you to stand, fly fish or even get into those narrow spots where other boats can't go to get the best fishing.
An optional electric motor can act as a virtual "Ride-Assist". Just set the throttle to the 1st speed setting and it will help reduce rowing exhaustion. On the 1st speed setting, an electric engine can run around 12 hours (depending on battery size). The SK396 KaBoat with an electric engine is an ecologically friendly, environmentally clean, real "Green" boat.
