A stable fishing raft that is easily transportable to the water without a trailer and has a deck large enough to easily and securely carry fishing gear. The deck and bottom are flat, and the sides are perpendicular to the deck and bottom. The deck is connected to the bottom at the bow and stern with a circular arc. The core of the raft is a buoyant foam, preferably polyurethane, and covered in a water-resistant resin, preferably polyethylene. The raft is steerable and propelled by paddle or trolling motor that attaches to a removable motor mount. In a preferred embodiment the raft has a recessed accessory track and a series of recessed rings on the deck to receive the bottom edge of a bucket and hold it in place as a seat. Rafts can be joined together with couplers.
