    Thanks for all the info inflatable followers

    Well, I sold my boat. I didn't use it as often as I thought I would have due to the work of carrying it and setting it up. I appreciate all the advice and information on here from searching the threads and from anyone who responded to my posts. I'm leaving the inflatable world and hopefully...

    Parting with my boat

    Thinking of selling my saturn SD 365. Last time I took it out I realized it was more work than I cared to do. I might look into a RIB with a trailer or an aluminum boat. If anyone is interested here is a link with photos, and more pics can be sent/uploaded if need be...

    SD 365

    I have probably spent more time thinking of what I can do to this boat rather than fish in it, and I've had it since last March. Oh well, that's half the fun in it. Hope you like it.

    Adding a scotty rod holder glue on pad

    I've read different suggestions for gluing on accessories to inflatables, leave the boat inflated, deflate it, not sure which is best. Looked at a lot of videos to. Last night I glued on my scotty rod holder pad to my boat using the one tube of glue saturn sent me. I sanded the boat where the...

    whale tail/hydrofoils, worth it?

    Any of you guys notice a difference with your SIB using a hydrofoil? Handle better, plane better, steer better? I have a 12 ft. Saturn boat and use a 9.9 Johnson 2 stroke short shaft. Wondering whether I want to buy one. Why don't manufacturers just incorporate these into the motor?

    battery for inflatable pump/fish finder

    So I bought a cabelas 12v battery probably a year ago that weighs 5lbs to run my pump. Recently it won't fully charge by verification of my multimeter. I think it's the charger since it doesn't shut off when fully charged or do a float charge. I have never charged it more than the recommended...

    hauling SIB in the back of a truck

    What do you guys think of hauling my SIB like this. It's 12 feet long and the keel wouldn't be inflated or anything in the boat until I got to the lake. Any suggestions to improve it? Any dangers?

    launching wheels

    Any of you guys build your own launching wheels or some type of dolly? I'm debating on making my own, but wondering if it just be cheaper to buy them after I waste time coming up with a design and gathering parts. The cheapest set I found was on boatstogo website ,(which sells the saturn line of...

    boat rigidity

    For any of you guys who don't use the bench seats, do you think it takes away from the side to side stability of your boat at all by not having something holding tension between the tubes?

    12' Saturn

    Re: 12' Saturn The storage trunk makes a great way to haul life jackets, anchor, and whatever else to keep it out of the boat and it functions as a seat. In the back I made rod holders out of PVC and used the mount to attach my white light. I replaced the 2x4 in the middle with a treated deck...
