I'm fishing in the Creek Company Jet Pack. I'd guess the pontoons are 7' long. It has an aluminum frame that's much lighter than the Waterskeeter, & it also has a narrower body, so it can slide right into the shell of my truck. Its storage pockets are a little small, & the stadium seat isn't as comfortable as the hard plastic seat on the Waterskeeter. Otherwise, though, it's a great kickboat.

I'm not sure what the advantage of longer pontoons are, other than increased stability. Since we're often bass fishing around trees, docks & tules, it seems to me that there's an advantage for maneuverability with the shorter pontoons. If you're going to be doing much river fishing, though, the longer pontoons might make a lot of sense.

I do have to say, after all those years in a U-boat & hybrid, it's great to be in a kickboat.
