I have used a few of their paddle boards, and they are excellent fishing platforms. Very comfortable, very stable, and they track well. They are, without a doubt out, of my price range, but nice for sure.

They are very nice fishing platforms designed by a micro-skiff boat designer with fishing in mind. To pricey for me, a friend has 2 and they sure are nice.

There is an alternative, very similar, built over on the W. Coast ( I Think Sarasota) called the Cayo SUP Boatworks.. alos look very nice. They actually just came out with a new model that is a foam blank, CNC cut, and covered.

Most other SUP's are built as SUP first with fishing as an afterthought..

Yea its the best board design I have seen for fishing, you get what you pay for though, still a lot cheaper than a flats boat. :salute:

Cayo SUP is on Pinellas Park. There's is very similar to the Dragonfly.

There was a Dragonfly at the FS show this weekend. All decked out with everything for fishing including lights.

You should design one, I will test the prototype for you.

I thought those things were pretty stupid when I first saw them but, they are starting to grow on me a little, maybe if someone gave me one. I guess they would be okay for a quick outing, no place to carry anything, I wouldn’t want to spend the day on it.
