Looking for some kind of inflatable boat

[RiverBoy]

As the title sez i’m looking for some way to get off my boat while on anchor. i don’t want some super extravagant zodiac , but i also don’t want a pool floatie. does anyone have such a thing lying around not in use ?
or if not can you recommend a brand or model that fits my description ?

thanks!

Is that the canadian tire special that floats beer like none other?

That's the Explorer 2000, great size for an Osoyoos lake beer tub you're right. The 3000 is the "3 man" version so it can actually float my fat butt.

No I got mine at Home Hardware in Osoyoos like 20 years ago. I was so baller paying the extra $30 for the 3000.
I still see them all over the place.

I would check Cabelas as well they come on sale there quite often and look to be durable

The man has obviously never sailed the seven seas in an explorer. It is the Harley Davidson of inflatables.

Checkout the Watermaster. Very convenient and durable. Expensive but if you're into river fishing as well it's easily justifiable.

I have an older 10’ Zodiac with a wooden floor. Not a PVC boat but Hypalon. It’s packs up nicely into a bag. Boat is rated for 25hp but I just run it with an electric motor for interior lakes.

It does have a slow leak that I’ve never sourced or worried about.

$150

I had something very similar to this. It has built in rod holders and I made a plywood floor for it. Then plunked a box with a swivel seat on top to hold the battery. transom made out of a 2x12 and some copper pipe which held a minn Kota motor nice and securely. I wish I had some pics, it was a cool setup

I looked for years on Craigslist and used Victoria. People always want too much for their old junk...I don't get it. I finally found one last year. Just have to be patient.
