Porta Bote

Does anyone have any experience with this folding boat ? It shows that it can be attached to a slide. This seems like a nice way to take a boat along without double towing. Thanks.

We have it, it says it can be attached to the slide BUT... It consist of drilling holes in the side of your RV. We have transported it numerous ways. We made a rack under the monty which worked well until we traded up RV that had the lower basement. Recently we are carring it inside in our big slide. Ours is 12 ft. If we had to do it over again we would have went with the 10 ft. Just easier to manage and transport. I have thought of using a T and putting it on a rack on top of the truck until Capt Chris showed me how they haul thier paddle board inside. Depending on yur rv model the ease of carry inside the rv.

On another note, it does everything I want it to do. Not hard to put together and made well. Getting it to the water is a little heavy for 1 person. They sell wheels that would be great but they are $300 which I find rediculous. I usually put it together at the campsite and put it n the back of my truck. Mine will hold 4 adults. We also have a trolling motor and gas motor for it.

I have pics if yur interested . pm me yur email address and I can send them if yur interested.

I would look at quality inflatable boat. I have an Achilles Inflatable boat that is about 11 feet. I rolls up in a bag about 3'9"x1'11"x11" you can store it easier, and a lot more places. Also it is more stable for fishing standing up.
