    If they were $1,200 new, now on sale online for $599.

    $300 would be a super deal.......



    Scadden makes good stuff.....that's not some off brand knockoff.

    Scadden screwed some of the the fly shops by selling us their wonderful products and then they sold the public their boats direct at

    wholesale prices. They make really good stuff and I never bad mouthed them, except for just now.

    For a joke when people would come by and look at the Scadden water craft I told them, "We are just a show room for them. They will

    sell them directly to you at wholesale prices." I kind of hoped it would get back to them but never heard a word.

    Finally, we just sold the Scadden boats we had at wholesale prices and wrote it off as a learning event.

    This is 100% facts......


    I can tell you only a few people ever made any money in this FFing industry except Mike Michalak, owner of "The Fly Shop".



    The COVID19 just eliminate maybe 50% of the World's small businesses.

    I like small businesses that are "Mom & Pop" at your home, through the Internet, with online sales.

    I’m 240. Definitely would float a big guy. The seat area is large and made out of the materials like a stand up inflatable paddle board.
    I will be passing through Stockton next Thursday evening and could arrange a viewing.

    Thanks for the offer Jet. I've learned to ask myself if I will actually use it when it comes to toys. At this point I point I probably wouldn't but that could change.
    Have you ever used it on moving water?

    I have not and never intended to as it does not have oars. Not sure where Scadden was going with that video. Seems foolish and reckless to me.
