Due to the smooth floor, the boat can also accommodate a wheelchair. The large cabin and high sides keep children in the boat, and the low height from the water line makes fishing comfortable. Specifically installed lights add comfort to catching fish at night. Along with the boat you will receive tips for fishing in the best fishing "holes" and all equipment if necessary.
