So smart! This solves a lot of issues for me too!! I have some pretty significant knee problems and I'm starting physical therapy. The option of having a seat for breaks is so genius! When my knees are acting up sitting down on the board is difficult. I wonder if the rachet strap cooler set up will work as well with an inflatable.

Use a J-hook paddle stroke.

This is awesome!

I used that same igloo cooler when i first got started. The lid just isn't going to hold up over time to being a seat but otherwise its a solid little cooler. I built myself a fishing crate from 2 plastic crates similar to others. I put a triple rod holder on it. Consider making some leashes for your rods and paddle so you dont loose them!

the boat alone costs 799$
