BLM,
I agree with you on this one. I have an Achilles sportboat, made of Hypalon, with a wooden transom and wooden floorboards that I would like to take out to Rock Cliffs or Lincoln Beach one of these days, even on rough water. Of course, I will be wearing a PFD, like any good boater will, when going out on the water. The Sea Eagle may be a step below the names that you have mentioned, maybe due to the material or construction that SE uses. I have taken my inflatable out on Mirror Lake, Deer Creek, and Pali
e and have had great fun with it. It is stable enough to stand on while casting. You have to have some kind of propulsion besides oar power because these boats paddle like an elephant. I'll take these boats over aluminum when it comes to windy conditions.
