Hey there TubeDude,
Couldn't noticing a whole slew of inflatables coming out of the woodwork at the Fred Hall show this year.
The things were like a Zodiac or Apollo but featured a hard moulded vinyl bottom. The bladders or pontoon diameters BIG and there was a place for a motor. Every one was only about 7 feet long. Cheapest I saw was $889.
Looks like all these little niches are being filled when it comes to floaties. The weight of one I remember well came in at 72 pounds. Not too portable but........... what is the combined weight of ALL our gear on a float tube!?? ha ha ha
