- Video shows a 2.9 metre island Inflatable dinghy with a 9.8 hp Parson outboard. The boat is transported in a family car, inflated then launched off a local Adelaide beach. Its easily done and lots of fun catching King George Whiting, squid etc so close to shore. Given favorable weather the location possibilities are endless. Enjoy.
Many people ask me what type of pump I’m using .... just search “ island inflatables pump” 👍
Im 6 years late and asking does this dinghy have like any plywood etc. at the bottom or is it just filled with air?
M.I.R.O .....it has an inflatable floor only, I needed to keep to keep things light.....it works well, very easy to put in/take out and you can stand up on it no worries at all

Mate, I can't tell you just how much fun that was to watch, very informative, you display how easy and how long it takes to set up and set off; you are very organised as one needs to be in a small boat - well done!
Thanks Gavin......tight lines
As a greek surrounded by sea, i find your video interesting, you are very well organized, and you show respect for the environment, hope to see you fishing in greece, we have a lot and good fish here
Thanks for putting this up. It was almost hypnotically enjoyable.

I was weary about inflatable boats at first until I say your video. Pretty easy setup and no big maintenance costs of owning a real boat. I may get the same setup as you. Looks like a lot of fun..
Hey man I know I'm 3 years too late to respond but this video inspired me to get an inflatable dinghy and a 9.8 hp motor to get out there and fish. Thanks for the video! Hope you post more
Same here, it's because of this video that I got mine.

2 years to late to comment me too :)
I’m glad you were inspired 🎣

Great to see people fishing from sib's (soft inflatable boats).
We often venture down to the Solent and try our look down there.
Can't thank you enough for the great video. Cheers and tight lines ⚓
No problems at all 👍
This bloke is so well organised.
Great video for people to get an idea of the strip you need to fish from an inflatable.
That is great. Lovely quality of footage and editing. Rarely do we get to see the setup from the car etc, which is exactly what I was looking for, so thanks for taking the time to upload it.
Exactly!
I agree!
Hello me! I came across this 5 years later looking for the same thing using my new account. How bizarre.
Brilliant video, thank you. I have been thinking about it.
Thanks
I have this motor on my boat and just love it's manuverability , power and how quiet it is....
Thanks for this beautiful video. Greetings from Turkey.
great video this is so amussing to watch, i must of watched this over 100 times this is the only video that has the setup of the boat from the car to onto the water great video!
delta737-800 , thank you for your comment I am glad you have enjoyed it. 🤙
I'm ordering an Intex Mariner with a 3.5hp in a week. can't wait. I can inflate and have on the roof of the Blazer, or deflated and in the trunk of the Ford Focus. Great video.
Awesome ! And thanks for the warning about the tell tail, lucky it's easily rowed :) Its easily launched with an offshore breeze, the axle/wheels make light work of soft sand too. Must film that one day.
Yeh.saw your wheels in the background..those little flip down ones would be useless in the soft sand i think. I built an electric buggy for sand travel out of an old 12v kids monster truck that someone threw out. Big plastic wheels and waterproof gbox. Binned front half. Add 6cell hobby nicad pack (12v too fast) , 20a on off switch and worked a treat. Just need to modify for inflatable boat.
Fyi. They say impellor housing rotates which blocks inlet/outlet. May now be fixed.
Hey Nick. I've just bought a similar set up, and was looking for help and found it here. That's an excellent video my friend, very well done, informative and no chattering on and on with useless info that nobody's interested in. Top marks to you pal and tight lines.
Sean Duncan , thanks mate ! I don't like the dribble that some people add to their vids, they ruin them. Glad you found some info Sean
I own boats about 12 years ,mostly ribs ,now i have a 6 metre with a 150hp 2stroke.
The simplicity of that little boat is everything a man needs to get to sea....
Big boats are a pain in the ass...
with a big boat you need fuel money , maintenance money ,storage and washing labour ,a place to launch ,a big car to tow , several payperwork to fill in order to be legitimate...
But with this kind of boat you are free to enjoy fishing and the sea..
Have fun!
Good
No music
No talking
Nice setup. I would only recommend an extension of the kill cord so that you could wear it while the engine is running.
Hi Nick, a colleague only told us of your vid/s today, I will have a look tonight at the rest. Glad you enjoy, I get out in mine too, nailed plenty of fish over Port Victoria way. As far as pressure goes, the tubes should be 25Kpa, 3.6 psi, but 35 Kpa is fine. The floor seems to work best at 55-60Kpa easily achieved with the inflation pump, but by hand its not easy, have found 45Kpa is achievable and still rides well. I wouldn't go under that if at all possible.

Good video! We also use high pressure pumps to inflate our boats on a
daily basis, they're indispensable. Although, we should mention that we have
destroyed a few inflating air floor boats at high altitudes, and on hot
days. Keeping the pump cool and not exceeding the recommended time
usage (~15 minutes) will prevent the plastic pistons from seizing up. We
now use an extra pump to separately inflate the air floors.
Kill switch,???
Really nice setup and perfect usage of the room for one person. I will use some of your ideas in my boat too ☺️
Very good video thanks 😊
Nicely done mate! I’m thinking of selling my little fishing boat for an inflatable for the ease of it! This video might have pushed me to actually do it
This is such a cool setup!
Found them, great help, cheers pal 🎣👍
hello nick
yes i thought the same for about the first 2 trips (thought it was a blow out valve) but no when you next go out let it run in 2nd gear you will see the difference your walls need to really hard to hit your floor and your keel being the softer of them all but even so still need to be fairly hard, buy a cheap pressure gauge that will fit on to a jack hammer pump that you will have laying around and get the correct pressure of each item of your boat from the maker, fill up most of your boat with the electric pump and finish off with the jack hammer pump to the correct pressure you will see what i mean and then from then on you can just gauge inflating the boat with just the electric pump
hope this is a massive help to you it was to me :)
Nice like the eazy eject gas can for when that big wave comes to take you ancor line
Very cool video! Looking to buy a dinghy go start fishing again and this def has inspired me to do exactly what you did as this is a perfect setup. Can you link the boat, engine, etc in the description???
Please enjoy my videos of "Inflatable fishing" around the coast !
Very Nice video congratulettions My friend...
Welcome Made IN Brazil Natal RN.
Tolles Video, dass sehr gut das Fischen von einem Schlauchboot darstellt. Komme von der Nordseeseite, da ist es leider nicht möglich ohne das man weit heraus fährt, auf Makrele oder Dorsch zu angeln.
Cool wee vid,i have just got myself a dinghy and an electric outboard for loch fishing here in Scotland when the sun comes back out again if it comes back out again,can't believe you get haters even on videos on dinghy's they are everywhere lol tight lines
I just got an 270cm inflatable boat, it says the pressure should be at 0.25 bar or 3.63 psi on tube and 0.35 bar on keel And when I pumped it up it read 0,21 but I couldn't pump any more with that included foot pump.
I’m sure it’s close enough but you should get an automatic pump as it makes things a lot easier and quicker .... therefore you’re more likely to do it more and enjoy it more ...👍
@@fishernick2447 thanks for response, I've checked the automatic pumps and they were a bit expensive so I'll look for used one,
And I bought a 5hp honda outboard.
Man I absolutely love your videos :D Subscribed and pushed the ring button. Got 330 boat on the way 2 running engines, and a 15 HP engine on the way.. I can't wait.. I love water, i love the life, i love the nature of it.
Jack Fisher , that’s cool man ,! Get out amongst em 👍
My 330 boat with 15hp was on the water yesterday... I have no car so i made an insane trolley setup for my scooter.. totally illegal, but where i live you see a cop one time in 10 years. The project was crazyyyy.. but i managed to get the boat on the water with my scooter.. if you wanna get a laugh go see my new video.. and by the way thank you for your video, it inspired me to hurry up and go boating.
Jack Fisher ; that’s the spirit 🎣🤪
I am about to get the same EXACT setup. Thanks for sharing.
great video, thanks for posting. It has inspired me to buy a small inflatable and get into it. The 9ft tender boat I have is pretty unsettling when the wind picks up so an inflatable it is.
I have heard some negative feedback re Parsons engine so spent a little extra on a Tohatsu. Boat is an old Force 4 rib and will be roof mounted. Keep an eye on your cooling flow.
I like the practicality of your setup and good to see the KGW coming on the bite. Happy man with a few that size on the plate.
Trying to organise a rear removable seat and oars that will fit on the 10mm pin, then should be good to go.
cheers
very precise...
Very nice
you have a great set up. well done
Hi, I have opted for an Island Inflatable too, running an electric outboard, perfect combo with my Camper trailer sharing the batteries etc. I am local in Adelaide too at Glenelg, launch from Glenelg North or Henley Beach. Cheers!
Nice one, plenty to be caught along our coastline. The electric version would be lighter I’d expect, i certainly didn’t need all that horsepower 👍
@@fishernick2447 , yes it cruises at about 7 kph. Easy too, no fuel! Thank you for the inspiration showing how easy it is to set up and pack away (minimal storage space).
The air deck is fine if you dig the sides of your feet into the side, I would get the floor except with my situation every kilo counts….
Could you please make a video of the pack up at the end of the day including rolling it up.
Great vid thanks for sharing!!!
Great video, I have a very similar set up with the 9.8hp parsun and a 2.9m inflatable with air deck, I have had 22mph out of mine with the tide.
Yes the floor is supposed to be 85 kpa or 11 psi rock solid. Your boat will ride much better and it will put less stress on your motor fully inflated resulting in les fuel consumption and just much smoother ride. The tubes are 35 kpa. Dont be concerned in overinflating the floor trust me that wont happen there is a safty valve that will release air if there is ever more air than it is intended to handle. The only concern you should have once fully inflated is watch your hooks because they can punture the floor. What i do it I baugth floor mats that I lay ontop of my floor so i dont have to worry about hooks or fish making a hole on my floor i just have to worry about my tubes. Remeber to always carry the repair kit just incase of emergency. All make a video showing my set up soon.
It looked like a used Jonny 🤣🤣🤣
Great video mate how is the boat holding up now. Cheers Don ❤
Muy profesional y respetando tallas todo un ejemplo.
por lo menos cuando filma! ajajaj
Really really good !!
Congratulations.
Wow nice setup. Im am actually trying to get me a small boat.
This is a great video!! You should upload some more!
Fffggyy
Laeah
i got my own zodiac called zoey and i absolutely love it
You will love it .... 👍

Well done, I just got a 9foot inflatable boat myself but ran into a nightmare trying to get the bill of sale and mso paper work from the seller. Bought from Ebay boat was shipped from my State but headquarters from China. DMV won't do anything until I get those paper work , this is crazy should've bought from a local store buyer beware of online purchases without paper work no motor cannot be added to your inflatable boat in some States.
RUDYAKAHALIBU77 , what an ordeal ! Painful....
Nice mate, no muss no fuss
good job
Nice😍
Hi great use of space on the dinghy. How big is dinghy?
Great video mate.
Cool Man🐟
This and kayak fishing is what I call Fishing
Fun funnn😀
Nice unit and gear
How ever the boat I noticed were inflated too soft as the electric pump is good for inflating the mass of the boat but is not meant to be used for pressure as you would then swap over to a double action hand pump to do this
this is why the boat as I am sure you would have known were wanting to fold or crease on acceleration which meant you were not able to utilize the full performance
holy smokes that motor is way op for that small thing
Barry James , oooh yeh !
Great video thanks. I definitely want that pump. One where I don't have to hook cables up to my vehicle. What is the brand? Did you order from the inflatable boat company? Where did you purchase? Plus even more important is the stern wheels. Which is a must have for me to transport from my vehicle to the water once with outboard, and gear and I'm by myself using the boat. Do the wheels come with the boat, or an accessory you can order, or do you have to put on yourself by drilling into the stern. They look better than others I've seen on TH-cam. I'm in Toronto Ontario Canada. Thanks again
Thanks Brad ! The wheels attached to the stern are bought separately, you can buy online. They did not work very well unless I was on hard ground...even then it was unstable and I couldn’t pull the bow up high or the stern tips would drag on the ground. The wheels on the axle worked a treat...also bought online and come in all different sizes. The pump I bought when buying the boat.... Seamax portable air pump 12V 👍.......
Hi Nick ! What 's your opinion on that wheels ? Do they roll fine on sand and soft Terrain ,? Great videos !
Bernardo H : the wheels are great ! They float over soft sand no problem, pressure is only 3 psi
Very nice. I was suprised by the power of the air pump. Can you tell the brand of it please? Cost?
love ur video bro
that boat is sick i want it
Cool video. What size boat is that? I'm researching dinghy boats now.. to take my 15 year old daughter on fishing trips. My son is 2... so I'd like something big enough for all three of us when I'm comfortable that he's old enough to come along.
As the comments described its 2.9m, you will need something larger around the 4m mark
hi nick you do realize that your boat is no were near inflated to its correct pressure (and will be creating a lot of drag and wear to your boat) the sound that your electric pump makes when it goes to a deeper pitch tone when your inflating the boat means it is going in to a lower gear to pump higher pressure to the boat (not to say thats it finished) hope this helps because the worst thing to do to an inflatable boat is under inflate it
Ian Jones I was not aware, thanks Ian. I assumed it was a blow off relief as the manual told me
hi nick and a happy near year to you pal have you managed to beef up your boat with pressure at all since my comment because i would like to hear your comment it should/WILL your boat a whole new ballgame for stability and longevity for your boat
If you buy these online, make sure to get a TITLE or Bill of Sale, depending on your state laws. Some states wont allow a Motor on them without paperwork. Seems like some Ebay sellers issue titles, but some probably don't...
What a nice video ! Where was that ? Which country ?
The video is filmed in South Australia
@@fishernick2447 Thank you for your reply
What kind of motor is that name& make & Hp ? Love the video it’s very helpful keep up the good work thanks
The details are in the description, 9.8hp Parsun engine....too powerful really, only need half the power
Sick vid man
9 foot with a ten horse ,that thing must fly! I bought a 10 ft. With aluminum floorboards and inflatable keel. Run a 4 horse for the lake fishing... Great little boats
Yep she planes with two adults and a heap of fishing gear .... too powerful really 4hp is ample
Great video, please put your engine kill cord around you wrist or ankle when you’re steaming along.
Do you live in Australia if so what state? Only because for my 12 bday I'm getting a dingy and I love the spot that you fish at. :)
South Oz mate, my spot is anywhere along the coast away from other boats.....
Hey I love what you’re doing I think it’s really awesome I have one question though what pump do you use because I’m thinking of getting one myself
Just search 12v air pump and there’s plenty to choose from www.islandinflatables.com.au/accessories/pump/island-inflator-12v-pumps
Hello, Nice video, what is the model of the boat please ?
Island Inflatable 2.9m
@@fishernick2447 thanks you man
I love fishing I got my own 3.0 metre tinny
Hey mate. Love your video. How do you find that particular brand of boat? Well build? Good quality? Any problems?
Very well built, I like it better than the other boats on the market 👍👍
How long you had for and you use it often? Sorry about the questions, I'm really keen on buying one because of your video. I don't have space for a boat and trailer
I've actually sold it, you see the new boat in another vid. I loved the little dinghy, mates had kayaks but there's no comparison in my opinion. Dinghy is more flexible, stable, comfortable, could have my kids out with me....great little fishing boat for sure. Buy one you won't be disappointed 😀
Please can you tell me what air pump that is? I'm looking for one like that
You can buy them online .... search the comments as there are a few on the market
Hi nick I was wondering where did u get your fish ruler as I have been trying to find 1 but have had no luck as yet .your help would be gratefully receivedThanks Pete
pete26671 Pete we buy them from fishing stores here, maybe try tackle world ?
Not sure if you still check this channel ( I can see its from 2013 this vid ) but if you do, how have you found the Island Inflatable boat has performed? I heard they are much stronger so it would be awesome to hear after all these years if it had any issues. Thanks for an awesome vid
Hiya, to be honest I sold the dingy some time ago but it was a good sturdy boat, built well and that’s why I bought it. It was so over powered but I loved it ...dragging it up the beach was just too hard though..a little 4hp is ample. A little too sharky in the area I fished and I didn’t want to be eaten so I sold it..so much fun and so versatile and having a heap of confidence in the boat I was reluctant to sell
@@fishernick2447 Thanks for the reply, Much appreciated.
I did wonder given how far out you were if sharks were a threat. I will be keeping mine in close (drifting for flathead) but my main worry is accidentally getting a treble stuck in it - Lol!
Don’t stress about getting a hook caught....very unlikely as the material is quite hard when inflated
What make and model of boat? Do the stern wheels come with the boat and are they permanently attached, do you have to detach wheels or can you simply fold them upright position for when you start motor? Or did you have to put them on yourself? What type and brand are the wheels? Does that come with fishing rod holders or not and how do you put them on. Can the boat with wheels and rod holders be deflated and put back into the supplied bag easily? Or is it a tight fit. Many bags that come with other Manufacturers don't have enough room and it's very difficult to get together back into the bag. Is that battery pump or electric? Preferably the battery that can be recharged as you don't need to hook up the cables to your vehicle with the electric type. Sorry for so many questions. Great video, thanks. Probably can't purchase this boat, wheels, rod holders and battery pump here. I live in Ontario Canada. Thanks again
Brad, its an Island Inflatable boat, you purchase just the boat itself, all accessories are additional including the motor. The wheels are home made by purchasing the tyres online and sourcing an axel to suit. The pump brand is unknown but it is rechargeable, some comments on here do quote the name but I can never find them. Thanks for your comments
Amazon has the wheels and everything you need
nice video mate. I am just curious how did you manage to carry this outboard engine so easily? they weight about 35kg!
menthou .... 26kg no problems 💪
There are many brands to choose from, try your local marine sales yard or online. Island inflatables, zodiac
That looks terrifying on such a small boat lol, I'd be scared to fall in the water
hello i looking byu boat something like that ,but in the shop they said that like this type of boat its not safe to fishing in the see,they recomend me only rib
there will be so many different opinions..I found it fine and so many other do too, I guess it depends on how far to sea you go out and in what conditions
Where can I find that sticker of fish you have on the seat?
I can’t seem to find the right type of cordless inflator for mine. What type of cordless inflator did you use in the video?
Just search “island inflatables pump” 👍
How long did it take to set it all up? How fast does the 2 stroke go? Does the sea have to be flat to be safe ?
Hey I know I’m 5 years late but how much did this set up cost? Not including the rods or anything but just the motor and the inflatable it’s self
Hi. Any considerations regarding parsun motors after long term usage? Thanks!
Can you provide me with a link to that Motor if i am interested in buying one? Would it fit on an intex mariner 4 you think? The current 3HP intex trolling motor is really slow and i believe an upgrade is necessary?
