When comparing the Porta Boat to similar sized boats such as aluminum boats, wooden boats, inflatable boats or fiberglass boats it is more than clear that the Polypropylene hull of the Porta-Boat beats them all. Whether it is the Porta-Boat's stability and durability that keeps it stable and constantly floating even when meeting sharp rocks or reefs, or whether it is its ultra-light weight that makes it so easy to transport. While some inflatable boats can be really frustrating to deal with as they are heavy and takes a lot of time to inflate and deflate.

All 4 types of Porta-Bote can serve as small fishing boats. In fact, using the Portabotes as small fishing boats gives the fisherman (or woman) few advantages:
1.Regular small fishing boats sway and rock and raise tiny ripples which scare away the fish.
2.Ever tried to swing a fishing rod while standing on small fishing boats? Most likely you'd lose balance or even worst, fall overboard.
3.If there is more than on person on a small fishing boat, to be able to stand without swaying, becomes virtually impossible!


Portabote special material solves all the problems related to small fishing boats. Its material defuses weight evenly across the entire hull, which gives this boat a unique stability, even when all the people onboard are standing or moving!


Many people wish they could buy themselves small boats. However, most people think that small boats are too expensive to purchase and even then, small boats are way too expensive to maintain. With most small boats this may indeed be the case. But not with Porta-Bote – not only that it coasts less then most average Small boats, it needs no maintenance. Unless you think an occasional washing with water is considered maintenance…

Despite its miniature dimensions, Portabote has steering abilities that surpass those of most average Small boats. Porta-Bote's steering is accurate and the boat is stable. Its light structure enables to use rather small motors, and still reach a surprisingly fast speed that will make the bow rise from the water. And the bow will not be the only thing rising - your heart rate and exhilaration will rise too!


Many people who are interested in small fishing boats settle for aluminum fishing boats. Aluminum fishing boats have acquired themselves a reputation of durability. This, in part, is true, however, what people do not take into consideration are other factors:
1.Aluminum fishing boats may coast cheaper than other small fishing boats, but their maintenance makes them rather expensive.
2.Aluminum fishing boats are heavy, so lifting them from the car to the coastline, might be quite a chore.
3.Though rather bulky and strong, aluminum fishing boats may erode and corrode, or their hull might sustain bruises.
4.Since their material is tough and heavy, steering or rowing Aluminum fishing boats can be a physical effort which may drain all the fun from your cruise.




Reviews


"The Porta-Bote is a brilliant idea! But like any new idea it takes a bit of getting used to at first. Actually, the Porta-Bote isn't exactly a new idea at all. These craft have been manufactured in the United States, and sold around the world for over 30 years. Over which time almost 50,000 have been sold!"






"When you stand up, the hull flattens against the water's surface with a suction effect adding to the stability. Because of the wide 5-foot beam, the Porta-Bote is exceptionally stable even when fully loaded and planning at full speed. The same suction effect that allows you to stand up safely also keeps the boat solidly on the surface. It feels good to stand up and stretch, look out over the water and comfortably fly cast with no worries about the Boat tipping over."






"Porta-Bote has all the advantages of an inflatable boat and none of the disadvantages. It's extremely stable, and can accommodate fly-casting without tipping. It's virtually puncture proof to white water boulders and if you do tip it over, it floats even when completely filled with water. With a 5 H. P. outboard it jumps on step. It would take a 20 H.P. outboard to do this with my inflatable. Ever try to lift a 20 H.P. outboard?"






"Opening the foldable boat takes only a couple of minutes and can be done on a platform as small as four feet wide. Once opened, the boat has a beam of five feet. This wide beam together with Porta-Bote's unique hull design accounts for the boat's exceptional stability and maneuverability."






"I have been very impressed with this boat hence my decision to write report. Another thing I don't have any trailer costs. eg. WOF, registration, storage or trailer insurance. For storage I have placed two metal U brackets on the wall of my garage and the boat sits there folded taking up no room at all."






"Those who enjoy the serenity and cardiovascular benefits of rowing will find Porta-Bote tracks very well under oar power. Due to its shallow draft, this nifty rower rides on top of the water rather than plowing through it. By coupling this high riding approach with a patented tri-hull configuration, Porta-Bote avoids amassing bow wakes under oar, which means it really rows fast!"






"My Wife loves rowing the boat as it is so light, quiet and easy in the water. I myself love the boat because it can be abused!!!
After 7 years of abuse the boat is still giving us more fun and pleasure than we could ever have envisaged."






"Since redesigning and re-launching the boats, annual sales have nearly doubled. The boats come with a 10-year warranty, but Kaye says no owner has ever filed a claim -- despite 50,000 having been sold. And this year, armed with the new optional sailing package and a bigger 14-foot model, he and his staff of 39 will represent Porta-Bote International at over 400 boats, RV, and outdoors-lifestyle trade shows in the U. S. alone, more than ever before. For Porta-Bote, it looks like smooth sailing ahead."






"The Porta-Bote is the ideal watercraft for anglers on the go, and the fact that anglers can transport this boat with ease, and still have to make no sacrifices when it comes to features and performance, make the Porta-Bote an easy choice for our Innovation Award!"






"Stability is excellent. You can stand almost anywhere in the boat without danger of tipping. Porta-Bote is roomier than a comparably sized inflatable. Unlike an inflatable boat, the entire interior of the boat is available for loading gear."(full story)






"What amazed me was how easily it did get up on the plane - with one person and a 3.5 hp outboard it will plane at about 12 knots. With a 5 hp outboard it will do around 20 knots. At the other end of the scale, with three people aboard and a 5 hp outboard you can expect a top speed of 14 knots."






"The folded Porta-Bote is four inches thick, about 24 inches wide, and it will fit into a station wagon, a pickup truck or atop your car, no need of boat trailer. A pair of nylon straps that hooks under the doors let you carry Porta-Bote like a surfboard."






"Under full power it moved quickly up a water filled Powell canyon. Poking along, it nosed easily among the snags and rocks of fishy-looking coves. It turns quicker than any paddle boat I ever tested - and without heeling over. It rows beautifully..."
