NRS GigBob Personal Fishing Cataraft
Description
Since man carved the first fish hooks from wood and bone, anglers have been creating new ways to get out and catch the Big One. Enter the GigBob… inflatable, frameless, ingenious. It's frameless! A personal fishing boat that can be rowed and is rigid without a frame. Our patented frameless design means it's 20-25% lighter than other boats the same size and you can fold it up and pack it on your back without having to break down a frame. The drop-stitch construction lets you put 6+ pounds per square inch of air pressure into the multiple air chambers, for a stiff, 'rock-solid' rigidity. Feel like celebrating after landing that record fish? No problem. The 15 square feet of flat area on the GigBob deck gives you plenty of room for a victory dance! Plenty of space for all your tackle, cooler, extra rods, heck even the family dog. The pontoons are wide and flat, for excellent stability. You can stand (or dance) on the deck without fear of tipping. And the flat bottoms give you a very shallow waterline. You slip right over rocks that snag a rounded pontoon. The comfortable seat and built-in foot pegs give you full support for an all day fishing expedition. Agile, fast, maneuverable…all words that quickly come to mind as soon as you sit down and push off from shore. Comes with: Carlisle 2-piece oars with sleeves, stoppers, springs with split rings, oarlocks, two Easy Access Tackle Bags and a Stripping Apron.2009 Editor’s Choice Award from Fly Fish America Magazine.2009 Best New Gear Award from Outdoor Canada Magazine.5 Year warranty

*Center to Center is the distance from the center of one tube to the center of the other tube.
**Length of frame is limited to the flat area on top of the tubes.
Your frame should be as wide or wider than your boat's center-to-center measurement. Determine this measurement by taking the width of your boat and subtracting the diameter of one main tube: C = W - D (where Center = raft Width minus tube Diameter). If the width of our frame doesn't match your numbers exactly, be sure to order a frame slightly wider than your center-to-center measurement.
