INFLATABLE BOATS made of PVC and HYIPALON.

 Before choosing your watercraft, you should determine for yourself - how and where you plan to use it:

Usually, the following answers are chosen for this question:
- fishing and hunting;
- water recreation with family or friends;
- just ride and maybe sip extreme water inflatable toys.

If this is the first boat in your life, then you usually want it to be universal - recreation, fishing, and water activities.
But the option of a boat suitable for all occasions is usually very expensive and the dimensions of the purchase make you think about the method (where and how) of storage.
That is why, before dwelling on one or another version of the product, you should familiarize yourself with the design, the materials used, the features of operation and storage.

From Ukrainian manufacturers of inflatable boats in our online store are TM Kolibri and TM Bark strong>.
From inexpensive imports - TM INTEX (TM Intex).< /span>

MATERIAL FOR INFLATABLE BOATS

There are no so-called rubber boats.
For the production of INTEX boats, Super-Tough vinyl (more precisely, PVC polyvinyl chloride) is used.
PVC to the touch a bit like rubber, but does not stretch as much when the structure is pressurized.
The material is relatively inexpensive and, accordingly, the INTEX line of boats is much (several times) cheaper .
In terms of wear resistance and strength, this material is inferior to materials used in Bark and Hummingbird boats, but has its own advantages.
PVC is easier to repair.
Besides, PVC boats are lighter and their transportation, inflation and deflating are accordingly more convenient.

Kolibri and Bark are made from multi-layered Hypalon.
This material is more resistant to abrasion and much stronger than PVC.
The disadvantage is more weight and difficulty with repairs at home.

FISHING BOAT DIMENSIONS

A bigger boat is more pleasant to sail.
It is more stable on the waves, accommodates a larger number of passengers and more suitable for installing a transom with a motor.
At the same time, large dimensions have a significant operational disadvantage.
3- and 4-person inflatable boats are much more difficult to inflate, deflate and store.
Most consumers prefer not to fold (not deflate) such boats at all, but to store them inflated.
A small trailer is usually fitted to transport such boats or a car roof rack.
The natural advantage of small boats is ease of transportation, inflation and storage.
Another advantage of small dimensions that you should not forget is the sailing performance with oars.
On 2 's local boat pass 1 km. on oars it is much easier than on a 4-seater.
Besides, due to the large dimensions, windage significantly interferes with movement against a frontal or side wind.
You should also pay attention - the external and internal dimensions of inflatable boats differ by about 2 times.
All manufacturers indicate the external dimensions of the boat.
The internal dimensions that can actually be used are much smaller than the external ones from - for inflated balloons.

RIGIDITY ELEMENTS IN THE STRUCTURE OF TOURIST BOATS

Some product options structurally contain not only "inflatable", but also rigid elements, usually made of moisture-resistant plywood.
These elements include:
- slate or solid bottom (floor) flooring;
span>
- rigid keel;
- stationary transom;
- rigid (plywood) cans (cross-seats);

The thicker the bottom, the less water resistance (friction).
If available The hard bottom of the motor makes it easier to enter the planing mode and develop greater speed.
