You can avoid the large luggage issue. I buy a cheapie, lightweight, standard boat seat which fits my wife's pontoon, available at chinamart or sporting goods at the location of my fly in. It does require that you do some tinkering beforehand to make sure the fit and comfort are just right. It might work for a float tube, if you can find something that fits, can be easily adapted, and can be found at the fly in location. Maybe a kid size plastic patio chair with the legs sawed off would work.
Lashing the two units together will probably be easier on the paddling than towing the tube with a rope behind you.

[quote fsh4fun05] That's good. I have a throwable cushion I keep on the boat that I could bungee to the seat. One more thing I forgot to mention, we will be flying so I need to avoid anything large with luggage being an issue. The seat belt is a good idea, that would make momma feel safer.
Are there flippers made for kids? Do any of you have kids with float tubes?[/quote]
