An inflatable boat is a lightweight watercraft that can be inflated for use and deflated for easy storage. These boats are typically made from durable materials like PVC or Hypalon, which provide resistance to punctures and UV damage. They come in various sizes and designs, suitable for activities such as fishing, leisure cruising, or rescue operations. Inflatable boats are often equipped with features like air chambers for added safety and stability. They can be powered by oars, electric motors, or small outboard engines, making them versatile for different water conditions. Their portability makes them popular for camping trips and recreational boating.
