Anybody have one? Pretty neat lol

Looks pretty cool, but it doesn't look cartopable and you need a trailer. If you  are trailering then why not just a regular boat?

I would need three, one for me, and two to carry all my gear.

 

 

$1500.  Doesn't come with a seat.  125 lbs. without seat and rigging.  Not much storage - especially for rods.  Need a battery(ies) and trolling motor, which will require registration in many states.  Spins in the wind.  Requires a pickup, cargo carrier, or trailer.  Seems to me the design presents more problems and challenges than it solves. 

 

I'll take my kayak over that any day for small boat fishing.

What's even weirder, it's not the only one of it's type.  Apparently, the idea is not that unique!

 

 

Looks like a baaaaaad idea. I picture stormy seas ahead.

It's all the rage in my FB feed....  It's one of those, "I guess so" products.  People that have them, love them.  Reminds me of another weird one:

 

I talked to someone that has one.  They are pretty stable but standing on them isn't a great idea, despite what you see in the video.  The battery and motor sit together in what I guess you call the "back" of the circle making it easy to flip if you get near that edge.  You have to land fish on the opposite side of the craft.

 

They are easy to roll, so one person can easily launch one but you have to remove the motor and battery to roll it.  They don't come with a seat, just the pedestal but seats don't cost much. 

 

Like someone else stated, there are plenty of plastic hull boats in the price range and much less that seem more practical.

I'm likely to purchase one, hopefully in the next month. I live near a private 500 acre lake in Maryland which it will be perfect...I've watched at least a dozen reviews on this thing and read others. All say they are extremely durable a stable. Me being a bigger guy really likes the fact I can both stand and sit on a comfortable level.

 

The  "Roundabout Watercraft" can be had for $1400 and comes with a 55Lb Minnkota and seat. They seam to be very customizable. It seems like it is better than the Ultra Skiff and less expensive. You can also purchase a hitch carrier($285) or throw it in the back of your truck and go to other local waters. 

 

 

Ahhh, the best all around boat.   Not a new concept however.

 

Also known as "a floating saucer".

 

The precursor to the jon boat can be seen between the saucer and the log pile.  Wait, that "log pile" may be a raft.

 

I'd bet dollars to donuts that is a raft.  The giveaway for me is the two wood poles sticking up, over the raft at the same angle.  I would think those poles are the propulsion system for the vessel.  Are they used to "pole" the raft or used to "scull" the raft?  That's the question.
