Sakura Float Tube Expedition 170

Description

The Sakura Float Tube Expedition 170 is the flagship of the Sakura float tube range, built for predator anglers who want to carry everything with them. With a 170cm footprint and a reinforced Drop Stitch inflatable floor, it offers stability and buoyancy closer to a small boat than a traditional float tube. It is made using welded tubeless PVC technology, so it is built to handle the demands of big-water angling. The inflatable floor does more than add safety: it raises your centre of gravity, which reduces drag and lets you glide across the water with minimal effort — useful when covering long distances on large reservoirs or tidal rivers. - Full tech integration: includes a fish finder mount and a motor mount, so the tube can be set up as a powered scouting craft. - Rigid Drop Stitch floor: the high-pressure floor creates a flat, rigid base, improving hydrodynamics and adding a puncture-resistant layer between you and the water. - Maximum organisation: two oversized side bags, a rear mesh storage area for crates or dry bags, and integrated rod holders let you carry multiple setups and enough tackle for a full day out. - Superior comfort: the high-pressure seat with EVA padding keeps you dry and gives a commanding view of the water, which helps when spotting following fish or reading weed lines. - Material: Heavy-Duty Welded Tubeless PVC - Dimensions: Length: 170 cm - Max Load Capacity: 170 kg (375 lbs) - Floor: High-Pressure Inflatable "Drop Stitch" - Seat: Adjustable Drop Stitch with EVA Pad - Mounts Included: Electric Motor Mount and Fish Finder Mount - Rod Storage: 2 Rear Holders + 1 Side Holder - Inflatable Drop Stitch Floor and Seat - Electric Motor Mount and Fish Finder Mount - Aluminum Stabilizer Bar and Graduated Mesh Apron - Rear Mesh Storage Net (for wet gear or battery boxes) - 2 Detachable Side Bags - Shoulder Carrying Straps and Heavy-Duty Carry Bag - High-Volume Foot Pump and Repair Kit Large reservoirs and lakes: when you need to travel miles to find the fish, the ability to mount an electric motor makes the Expedition 170 a game-changer. Big river pike fishing: the 116cm width provides lateral stability, allowing you to cast heavy lures or play large, hard-fighting pike in moving water with confidence. Full-day search and destroy sessions: with the added storage and comfortable high-seat position, this is a tube for 8-hour days where gear management and comfort are non-negotiable. Tournament angling: use the included fish finder mount to map out underwater structures and find marginal gains in competitive scenarios.
