I need some feed back on the Sea Hawk II .

[FishOn36]

Is this what you're talking about?

http://www.intexcorp.com/boats_lake_seahawk.html

I've been looking for a place that sells these 

[JordsyU]

I believe I saw one in Wholesale sports in Nanaimo. Apparently they are a good buy.

I have the big Seahawk- I love it. I use it as much or more than my 12 foot aluminum. You can put an electric motor on it or if you have to hike in a bit, it's not too bad for a carry.Surplus Herbies in Kamloops had them and that army surplus place between Clark and Commercial on Broadway has them I think.

great durable boats that will fit in a car trunk have had the original seahawk for a almost 7 years cant say a bad thing about it really.great inflatable

 - one point (nothing is perfect) They REALLY expand in hot weather. I was up at Tunkwa in July and I kept noticing a bit of sag and stretch.

Does Walmart sell these in the summer months? I think I saw em there last july-august but I can't remember...I know they had a bunch of other intex brand boats.

BINGO! I drove by there yesterday, but I didn't see any on display. Sears had them a few years ago as well. I suggest buying the "5" man unit. Comfortable for two big lugs and you can get the optional motor mount for a Minn Kota.

keep your eyes open in cosco got my sea hawk there few years ago

[vancook]

do you trust those inflatables? those who own them of course. Would you trust them on a lake the size of aloutte? or more for something like Whonnock?

I'd trust it on any lake given the right conditions its no worse then a canoe or small 12ft boat if u wouldn't take that on the lake u probably not going to want to take one of these inflatables out.

These are vinyl boats and are extremely easy to puncture.
They have multiple chambers so you're not likely to drown if you do puncture one of the sections. The inflatable floor means you may not even lose any gear if you have a disinflation event.
I fished out of a 2 man boat for years and wasn't worried, including on large lakes like Alouette. You have to be careful of stumps and you generally get wet launching and beaching the boat so as not to hit the rocks.

That being said I now fish out of a hypalon inflatable that is virtually indestrucble and would never go back.
