[black][size 3]Just got the H3's and they are SWEET! As the old man calls them "Super Fat Cat's on steroids"[cool][/size][/black]
[black][size 3] [inline "Freestyle H3 010 500.jpg"][/size][/black]
[red][size 3]Speaking of SFC's, I posted them on the Utah for Sale, we now have older style (Styro Seats) Fact Cat and Super Fat Cat for SALE for killer prices. I won't lie that they have been used, but they are in great condition with NO LEAKS EVER! Just a little faded.[/size][/red]

SWEET ride you got there.
What kind of $$$ are they? I may have to look into one for myself, might be easier to pack from the truck to the water.

Congrats -- Bet you can't wait for the field tests.
Now we need the picture with the firemans hat on [cool]
Are they all in Red or do they offer other colors?
I am sure she is at the Home Depot right now stocking up on PVC.

[#ff0000][size 3]You can get any color as long as it's red. As for PVC, that's TD's bag. I like the good strong feel of aluminum. [/size][/#ff0000]
[#ff0000][size 3]Price wise they're $399. As Joni mentioned we have had the SFC. If anyone is thinking about spending the money on a SFC, $50 more will get you a Freestyle. The H3 as mentioned in a previous post, is 6' long and 4' wide. [/size][/#ff0000]

[red][size 3]I actually have room on each side of the inflatable seat where I was cramped in on the SFC, and I'm 6'3" and 230 lb. One thing that was not mentioned was the insulated, waterproof storage pockets[/size][/red]
[inline "H3's 004.jpg"]
[inline "H3's 005.jpg"]
[red][size 3](with the Scadden "rod holder" which actually works) and rear storage on the H3. Not big enough to put Tube Dudes '53 Buick in, but it's close. [/size][/red]
[inline "H3's 007.jpg"]
[red][size 3]There are d-rings up the wazoo on this thing. It's also got a nylon strap handle on each side for easy carrying and d-rings on the bottom for the backpacking straps that are used with SFC's. TD and I could hike in with them, but if you're under 5'8" you might have a problem dragging the tips on the ground. [/size][/red]

[cool][#0000ff]We would like to meet up with you guys on the water for a closer looksee and maybe a test drive. [/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]Let us know when you might be taking them to the water.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]I think I am close to convinced. We have been talking about replacing our 3 year old (heavily abused) SFCs. Might be time to do a serious upgrade.[/#0000ff]

Those things are huge! Cabelas had one on the wall tonight and it's bigger then some of the small pontoon boats. Looks like they will be nice on the water. Congrats.

[red][size 3]tlspyder13, they are six feet long. You are right in that I use to have a Buck's Bag Alpine that was 6 ft. These can take the chop![/size][/red]
[red][size 3]Still waiting for the stripping apron, they are on back order.[/size][/red]
[red][size 3]Check this out next to our Chevy Silverado:[/size][/red]

That ten year warranty sounded pretty nice. Hey if you get a couple more, some pvc and some duct tape you could float the whole truck in a pinch.[laugh] Think the warranty covers floating a truck durring a flood?

Wow!! Just looking at how much beer it can hold has got me convinced to buy one. I also like the added length and width. I may be able to upgrade my smaller DVD player and go ahead and put the 42in Plasma.[cool]

Hey flygoddess, after looking at the H3, I don't think you should use the stripping apron. It looks more like a TV dinner stand would work better or some kind of folding card table. LOL[cool]

[black][size 3]I did buy me one of those great big rubbermaids for putting my waders, flippers, net, and all my gear when I go to the Lodge. The thing takes up the whole back of my Vitara. Thinking about the lid like your dad did for the time being.[/size][/black]

The lid thingy should work out fine. From the looks of your pose in the new tube, even the stripping apron may be too high. I'm sure that if your hanging around with my Pops from time to time that some of his ingenuity will rubb off on you for sure.( I don't discredit the brains that you already have)
Do you think that tube would hold a 30 pack in the back??? I could just see the Spud boy and I with a pair of those tubes. We wouldn't have to come off the water for quite a while(in the summer)

[black][size 3]I am sure it will hold a 30 pack. Just remember, what goes in has to come out at some point[laugh]. Not as easy as on a pontoon. Except watching my sister in-law (his wife) have to go while out on her pontoon in the middle of the lake was funny enough. Good thing I had a towel big enough. She had chest hi waders on too.[cool][/size][/black]
I don't approve of leaking in the lake, but sometimes you got no choice.

He told me about the incident. Spud Boy said you were there to save the day.
That's why I just wanted a guarantee for the summer when I can go waderless.[ ]
I guess the H3 is big enough to put a "Port a Potty" on. Shouldn't be a problem huh?
If I could get rid of the Sofa and the China cabinet from my tube, I think I could put a port a potty back there. That would give me a little more height to mount the Sattelite dish too.[cool]

Dude I think you are looking in the wrong direction, you need to upgrade the 5.1 surround sound to 7.1 surround and get rid of the china cabinet anyway. [ ]
