PortaBote

[Neil P]

I have just bought an A'Van to take on my camping (fishing) trips. Unfortunately, my tinny and trailer won't hook on behind it !!!!

I have been researching about the PortaBote, which folds up and can be mounted on the side of the van. Has anyone had any experience with the PortaBote as a fishing option?

neil, i did alot of research into them and would advise u not to get one,personally id just get a little punt that u can throw up on ur cars roofracks or something,i was all geared/cashed up ,to make the purchase and i toook one for a spin,pretty good,but the thing that put me right off was that when u walk around the floor flexs and dips where u stand on it,maybe it wont bother u so much,but when trying to bream it makes it impossible,jmo.
