Like trying to do a hundred mile journey in a pedal powered go-kart. Its possible, but definitely not what it was made for!

The more serious ones:

Raptor Fishing Platform XL

Must be a strange way to fish, and why a bivvy on a platform, when a boat with a cabin, and room for rods might be easier?

I guess so mate, imagine having one in open water, anchored, with a couple of bivvy's on and all the gear. It would be like having you're own little island.

I've got one of the raptor boats and it's quality but that fox one just looks flimsy and would probably sink on its first outing

Have had a tempest V2 over my Zodiac on a French reservoir before. Luckily the weather was calm and worked a treat, although seems this seems to be the way most are going now which is putting bank fishing on some of the massive waters overseas at such a disadvantage..

The lake i was fishing was flooded so no choice but look at the last couple of years on the likes of Orient and some of the quieter ones...

It's perfect for what I need it for very stable and well made

I got it direct from raptor rather than their U.K. agent as it sounded a bit iffy to me but the guys are sound and very helpful 👍

Looking at that pic again, i was imagining what takes place when he gets a take, very limited space, and i expect the dog goes berserk!

Piece of cake.
You want to try playing an angry trevally with an 8wt fly rod on an inflatable flip flop
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
