Definition
The Aquafarer AirDeck 360 is a 12' (360 cm) inflatable boat with a drop-stitch air deck floor, rated for up to 15 hp outboard engines.
Das Problem
You need a portable boat that packs small for yacht storage or car transport. Slat-floor boats take time to assemble; roll-up floors lack rigidity.
So funktioniert es
The air deck inflates to form a rigid flat platform without assembly. Triple-layer PVC provides durability at 35 kg weight. Three independent air chambers provide redundancy. The transom is rated for 15 hp.
Die Lösung
Inflate tubes first, then air deck. The high-pressure air deck creates a rigid, comfortable floor. The boat rolls up for compact storage.

Air decks are more comfortable, lighter, and pack smaller. Aluminum floors provide a more rigid platform for planing at higher speeds.
Can I stand and fish on the AirDeck 360? ▼
Yes, the air deck provides a stable platform for standing. The 160 cm beam provides stability.
What size engine do I need? ▼
6-10 hp provides good planing with 1-2 passengers. Up to 15 hp for maximum speed.
How long to inflate? ▼
Approximately 10-15 minutes with the included pump. An electric pump reduces time to 5 minutes.
