I have two round tubes, which have served me well but the Fish Cat is a Cadillac by comparisons. I bought a dry bag that I carry a rain jacket, sometimes a long sleeve shirt for warmth, my wool sock, boots, PFD and waders until I get to where I am going. Then the waders and socks etc. are replaced with my shoes until I get back to my pick up. You may want to check the law in Indiana, Georgia says it's a boat and a PFD is required. Inflatable PFD must be worned to count. A couple of years back in my round tube, I got my feet higher than my head, I was glad I had the PFD on.

I am very cautious to reduce air pressure slightly when I place it in the back of my pickup, this is my first tube with a bladder instead of an inner tube, just something to think about to preserve the life.
