The first modern inflatable boat was invented by Reginald Foster Dagnall (famous English designer) in 1919, using the special coated fabric made from hydrogen airships. These boats were used later, in Ward War II as well as in the post-war period. Since then, it has been made hundreds of thousands inflatable crafts - in a variety of shapes, sizes and from different materials. So, it is easy at all to find the right one today.

The modern inflatable boats inflatable boat motor usually have a solid hull and rigid floor as well. The external shape of the boat's hull allows it to cut through sea waves easily, which make a sailing more comfortable when you travel faster in rough conditions. This rigid hull structure provides a good location for an outboard motor, and it can support even a very powerful outboard engine as well as a strong inboard engine. As far as their size, it varies from small rubber dinghies to big boats of up to 15 m in length, which include full cabins and various luxury features.

However, the most of today's rigid inflatable boats are not inflated, they actually consist of by several air chambers in their hull as well as some closed cells inside the hull. Thus, they are constructed with their sides and an inflatable bow made from a few flexible tubes that contain the certain gas under pressure. These boats are multifunctional - they serve as recreational boats, everyday tenders, fishing vessels, as lifeboats for larger ships, for travel, and so on. So, you can use these boats for various purposes. What's more, they are unsinkable, lightweight, very buoyant and have great carrying capacity.

You can find a lot of designs of inflatable boats in stores today. For example, some of them are designed to be packed into a very small volume (as deflated), so they may be stored and transported to a certain water area easily. Also, they may be inflated very fast (for just a couple of minutes) with an appropriate pump, which will significantly save your time. Among thousands of models, I have singled out one amazing inflatable boat, so-called Big Inflatable Flying Fish. This boat is intended for many recreation possibilities and to have a great fun on the water. You can use it at all large water areas: on the river, sea, lake, etc. All you need to do is to attach this vessel to a powerboat with rope, and it will truly fly above the water surface at high speed. Its special design allows this. Just to mention that there are several handrails on this boat, and there is enough space for several adults.
