Basic Inflatable

[magehero]

hey guys, i recently purchased a 2-4 person inflatable row boat. something alot similar to this --> http://cgi.ebay.com.au/NEW-Outdoor-...temQQptZAU_Pool_Spa_Beach?hash=item25573769ed
i have around $500 to waste so i was wondering on what i could do to fix something like this up so i could fish in it out in my local lakes/beaches. i was also wondering if it is possible to put a wooden floor in it or a float able floor so i can stand up.
any help on what to spend my money would be appreciated.

Well... for $500, I'd just buy a boat that already meets your expectations as it is. Something like this >> http://www.boatstogo.com/fishingboats.asp

Re: Basic Inflatable

Yeah, the problem is, those boats are designed for extremely light duty. You could fabricate a make shift floor for it, but you'll never get it to lock in to place like a factory built floor would. It doesn't look like it has the capability to hold a motor of any kind. Again, you could fabricate something, but it's not worth the effort. I would save your money and just use the boat as it is, or like I said get a boat that's made for what you want to do with it. Several of which are within your price range.
