Inflatable Boats, Dinghies & Tenders

SHOP SLATTED FLOOR BOATS
SHOP AIR DECK FLOOR BOATS

The sailing season is the perfect time to sort your inflatable dinghy or tender. At Force 4 we stock boats from Aqua Marina, Seago and our own Windward Marine range.

Choose from inflatables built in PVC or Hypalon for lasting durability. Whether you need a compact inflatable that stows easily below decks or a larger boat capable of carrying the whole crew and an outboard motor, there's something here for every use and budget.

Every model comes ready to go — complete with pump, oars, carry bag and repair kit.

Choosing the Right Inflatable Boat or Dinghy

With a wide range of inflatable boats available, choosing the right model depends on how and where you plan to use it:

Slatted floor inflatables: The lightest and most compact option. A slatted floor inflatable dinghy packs down small, making it ideal for stowing below decks or in a locker. Great for single-handed use or occasional trips ashore.

Air-deck inflatables: A more rigid feel underfoot and noticeably better performance under outboard power. The high-pressure inflatable floor (typically 8–12 psi) creates a solid, stable base you can stand and move around on. The best all-round choice for regular use as a tender.

Outboard-ready tenders: Most models in our range feature a rigid transom rated for a small outboard engine. Check the boat's maximum HP rating and load capacity before buying.

Tenders for sailing yachts: If you're using your inflatable as a yacht tender for getting ashore from anchor or a swinging mooring, prioritise stability, robust construction and easy launching. Air-deck models and larger slatted floor boats both work well here.

Size and capacity: Consider how many people and how much kit you'll typically carry. A 2-person inflatable suits solo or paired use; families and offshore cruisers tend to favour 3–4 person models.
