Just wondering what you guys think of these?

We have inquired about a dealership, and wanting some opinions. They are new by a new company so information is coming along very slowly. Apparently this video went viral, and they weren't prepared for the interest they received. They come in at around $1000. John and I lately have been thinking they may be a little pricey compared to the inflatable personal tubes or pontoons. Just wanting some honest opinions.

Pretty neat idea. It looks like a lot of fun, but for me only in  calm water and close to shore. I'd want to have a back up battery on board too. Oarin.

Nancy and John:

I believe that there's a potential demand for such a craft especially from fisher persons who own cottages on small trout lakes/ponds.

Pretty slick, fishing by yourself but....  Can't take much tackle etc. with you. A few times lifting legs/feet over tackle or what ever would get old for me.  I wonder what a stiff breeze would actually do to the trolling motor control?

Neat idea. I guess it has it time and place.
Not for me

This is a really innovative idea... it would be great for a small lake or pond on private land. While it appears stable, I can't say I'd trust it on a larger lake or river for multiple reasons ( large waves, drunk boaters doing donuts around you and a dead battery (with no way to paddle back to shore would top my list)... It definitely has it's place though and it's just a matter of marketing it to the right clientele. If I ever owned  land with a small lake or pond I'd get one for sure, when not using it for fishing it could be used to swim off of and subath on.
