9.6' SD290 Saturn Inflatable Boat
The
9'6"
SATURN Inflatable boat SD290
is excellent as a tender for a yacht or
sailboat or as a life raft in case of an emergency. SD290 inflatable
dinghies take up to a 10 HP short shaft outboard motor and can
carry up to 4 people maximum.
A reliable inflatable dinghy is about the most important piece of equipment that a experienced cruiser can own. With a 10 HP outboard motor this boat will fly over the water at a speed of 20 mph.
Our inflatable boats are made of 1100 denier Korean PVC fabric with polyester support that has excellent resistance to tearing, tension and breaking. It is a much more heavy-duty PVC fabric than most of our competitors with 1000 denier PVC boats.
The Saturn SD290 inflatable boat comes standard with a high-pressure drop stitch air deck floor. Our drop stitch floors can take up to 9 psi of air pressure, and become extremely rigid once properly inflated. Not only do air
floors make inflatable boats much lighter and more compact when deflated, but they also make it much easier to assemble and disassemble the boat. You simply unroll it and pump in air with the included hand pump. To deflate the boat, simply open all air valves and start rolling the boat from the transom, or quickly suck all air out with an electric pump. Click to see
how to deflate and fold your inflatable boat.
Deflated, the SD290 boat will fold to the size of a medium bag. Once deflated and folded, the
SD290 can be easily stored in the trunk of your car or in a closet of your
apartment. Bag with deflated and packed boat can be easily carried
around with inexpensive foldable hand cart. Inflated boat can be easily transported with help of our removable
dinghy wheels that are attached to the transom.
The SD290 is great as an inflatable fishing boat. You can stand on the air floor just the same way you would stand on a plywood floor. The
SD290 was tested to run nicely with an electric trolling
motor. This boat is a must for RV owners or anyone who wants to be on the water quick and on a budget. Click here to read

New features further improve inflatable boats durability and practicality:
- Air valves have been moved toward the inside of boat's
tubes and away
from direct exposure to the elements. This will allow easier inflation from
inside the boat and will minimize damage caused by sun and rain while the
boat is stored uncovered for prolonged periods of time. Rain water will not
accumulate inside the valves. - Triangular symmetrical splash guards were installed on the
transom
corners to provide the sensitive transom of an uncovered boat with
additional protection and shade from the elements throughout extended
periods in Tropical environments.
Double layers of fabric at the bottom of the tubes and rub-strake protector along the keel provide extra protection from sharp rocks and abrasive sand. The safety valve will prevent excessive air pressure in the boats chambers.

" Thanks you for a wonderful product. I am absolutely amazed at the quality for the price, or even the quality at any price ... the pump that was sent with my kit appears strong and simple. It quickly inflates all five chambers to proper PSI. I am very glad I used Boats to Go for my Saturn 290 tender!" |

| * Specifications and accessories are subject to change without notice. Max O/B Motor means: maximum power of outboard motor that can be safely used to plane the boat loaded to the maximum capacity at normal water surface conditions. Please exercise common sense and caution when using maximum motor capacity. Do not jump from wave to wave as new 4-stroke motors are much heavier then 2-stroke and provide extra strain on the transom. Under normal circumstances, with half the maximum persons/load capacity, 50% of maximum O/B power rating may be necessary to put the boat on plane. | ||||||||||||||||||||||

Quick Tip! Worried about
puncturing the air floor with a fishing hook, dog claws or sharp
object? Get a piece of vinyl flooring or rubber mat from your local
hardware store. Cut the vinyl to fit inside the boat, over the floor
and your air floor will be almost indestructible! When deflating, just
roll it up along with the boat for future use.
