Hey, guys, does anyone have any experience with the Watermaster two-person raft? Reason I'm asking is at some point I may purchase a travel trailer, which would eliminate our ability to haul the Clacka. This two-man raft looks like something I might be interested in. What are the Watermaster limitations that you've found?

Alex-I have had the same problem. For years I've had a pretty big camper so I can tow my drift boat on camping trips. My wife is talking about needing more room and a trailer may be in our future as well. I have tried the one man Watermaster and am impressed with it. If I were you I would look at the new Scadden boats with the one piece bow. (Google Northfork Outdoors) My brother has one and it works really well for one man, and with a frame, it is just like my two man Scadden pontoon. Easy to transport and the biggest advantage over the Watermaster is the ability to stand up to cast, especially if you are fishing a lake. Mounting an electric motor is also an easy option for lake fishing. Rick

I haven't used one, but I've heard the two person watermaster works well, but is a huge pain in the ass in froggy/slow water. The weight of two people on that small of a footprint has you sitting too low to row through slow water easily.

Thanks, Rick; I took a look, and yes, they're very interesting!! We have Outcast pontoons now, but I don't think they'd be any good on moving water at all. Looks like the Scadden `toons are head and shoulders over our Outcasts!

Alex-to see these boats in action, check the videos on utube

This link is from another post and is about the motor mount, but on the same page are some cool videos of Scaddens in big white water! Rick
