PVC inflatable boat is the best way to penetrate the most hidden corners of nature. And if it is with a motor, then this is a symbol of an ideal holiday. It does not need a pier or a boat shed, it is easy to transport a non-inflated boat in the trunk of a car, but store it in a country house or garage.

The first inflatable boat to gain worldwide fame was Alain Bombard's "Heretic", a life raft in which a French doctor crossed the Atlantic Ocean to prove that shipwrecked victims could be rescued even without food or water.

Modern PVC fabrics bring this vehicle closer to the best examples of full size boats. Domestic fishermen and tourists do not need to prove anything to anyone, they are already firmly convinced of the quality of PVC inflatable boats.

How to choose a PVC boat for a motor

Before determining the dimensions, carrying capacity and other technical parameters of the boat, it is necessary to answer fundamental questions:

• How often will the boat be used for its intended purpose?
• How long and where will it be kept?
• What is the method of transport: on a trailer, on the roof of a car or folded in the trunk? Is there enough space?
• How many people will be fishing or moving from place to place at the same time?
• On what water bodies and how far do you plan to walk? For example, for a quiet pond, a motor is not needed at all, and for sea fishing, not only a powerful engine is needed, but also a special hull design that protects against waves.

After answering the general questions, you can start choosing a specific model.

Expert Alexander Orishev, Doctor of Historical Sciences, author of the special course "Fundamentals of Fishing Tourism" at the Timiryazev Academy and a number of books on tourism, shared with KP readers the secrets of choosing a PVC boat for a motor and answered the most popular questions.

The boat is selected from the features of individual operation by a specific person, i.e. from his needs. For some anglers, a small boat with a mounted transom is enough, on which you can hang a 2-3 hp motor. Such motors are sometimes referred to as a motorcycle paddle. It is enough for someone to have an “egoist kit” - a boat up to 3 meters long with a 5 hp engine, which allows such a vessel to go in planing mode and overcome more or less significant distances.

For fishing together you need a boat with a length of 3 to 4 meters. We emphasize that manufacturers can position these boats as three or even five-seater. However, fishing with three, and even more so with four, is impossible in them. For fishing three of us need a boat over 4 meters.

Types of PVC boats for motors

According to their structure, motor boats are divided into boats with a slate , that is, with a hard plywood bottom, and boats with a low pressure inflatable bottom .

Rigid plywood bottom boats also called solder boats . They, in turn, are divided into punts , in which the bottom is a plywood slant-book, and into boats with collapsible payolas , fastened with stringers.

Punts are designed for use with a motor of no more than 8 hp, since such a boat under a more powerful motor becomes unstable when driving.

An inflatable keel is used for greater stability. It is used on boats with collapsible floorboards, which makes it possible to operate motors over 8 hp.

Recently, LPND (low pressure inflatable bottom) boats have been gaining popularity, and there is a debate among fishermen about which type of boat is better.

The main advantage of a solder boat is that it can be used standing up. Although the use of EVA mats with additional rigidity allows NDND boats to level this moment.

At the same time, the main advantage of the NDND boat is the speed of assembly, and the use of electric pumps allows you to assemble the boat in just a matter of minutes, while on the solder boats, the installation of the linings can take considerable time.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a license to drive a motorboat?

If the boat engine power does not exceed 10.88 hp. and the weight of the kit is less than 200 kg, then a license is not needed.

What are the rules for boat and motor care?

General recommendations: Do not leave the boat in the sun out of the water, do not expose it to aggressive substances that can corrode the PVC sheet. In winter, it is undesirable to store the boat in a collapsed state.

Rules for caring for the engine: all gasoline must be drained from the carburetor before wintering. Some fishermen use the conservation of the outboard motor, that is, a special mixture is injected into the carburetor and the motor is allowed to work on it for several seconds. And it is desirable to spray the preservative on the surface of the motor. It is also important to check the oil in the gearbox for the presence of an emulsion and lubricate all rubbing parts of the motor with a special lubricant.

What PVC thickness is best for a boat?

Currently, boats mainly use 800-9 PVC00 g per sq.m. There are also PVC boats from 1500 g per sq.m., but this makes them very heavy. They are less afraid of friction, they can be safely dragged through the water, but such thickness does not save from punctures. And the price of such boats is much higher. To increase the strength of the boat, it seems more reasonable to carry out partial armoring of the bottom, that is, to paste over it with a special material.

What are the basic safety rules for powerboating?

Basic safety rule - do not board a boat while intoxicated . According to statistics, 90% of accidents occur when the passengers of the boat are in this form.

The second rule is to use life jacket .

The third rule is to use the engine only with the safety pin fastened to the boatmaster, which will allow you to turn off the engine if you fall out of the boat.

Now you know everything about motorized PVC boats and it will be easier to make the right choice. The amazing water expanses of our country will turn into a new facet and delight the soul with their beauty. No tail for you, no scales!

Tuning inflatable boats, kayaks for hiking

Let us consider in more detail the possible tuning and transformation of an inflatable boat for hiking.

Going on a boat trip is an idea that appeals to many, but sometimes the dream is shattered by real inconveniences and difficulties. Additional equipment will help prepare the kayak for a multi-day rafting. Tuning can be carried out in several directions at once.

Comfort

If “wild” tourism does not negate the very idea of ​​comfort for you, and you are sure that communication with nature should not turn into a path of suffering and pain, you will like gadgets that will make your water trip more convenient:

• Back padded stool for a kayak back - allows you to refuse from soft ammunition. Can be used as a night pillow.
• Mounting rings of various shapes - for securing equipment or loads.
• Oarlocks for an inflatable boat - for fastening a kayak oar, for swing oars, standard or remote. Not everyone can row with a kayak oar for a long time, and therefore, for long-distance kayaking river trips, it is recommended to get an alternative - more familiar swing oars.
• High pressure bottom - an analogue of a hard floor. With it it is easier to move around the boat, it increases the safety of the craft, in addition, it can be used as an air mattress.

All offered additional equipment is easy to install by yourself.

Storage optimization

On a hike you need to take a maximum of things and place them in a minimum of space. Our suggestions for optimizing storage in an inflatable boat:

• Lytros pouch with 2 or 3 pockets to keep your most valuable items safe.
• Hanging holder - for things that need to be at hand, such as water bottles.
• Elastic paddle holder or plastic paddle holders - so you don't have to worry about where to park your paddle or where to store your spare paddle.
• Bag for a jar - sewn to your size, will accommodate a repair kit and other things necessary for a hike.
• Grommet strips - for securing large loads.

When hiking on water, such a storage problem as getting food, documents, and equipment wet is also relevant. Her solution is a hermetic bag. TimeTrial offers airtight PVC bags of various sizes, incl. 40 l, 60 l, 130 l.

Other useful things to prepare an inflatable boat for a trip

So that the bottom of the boat does not turn into an accumulation of slippery dirt, instead of carpet, linoleum and other "innovations" offered by craftsmen, choose Eva rugs. In the online store "TimeTrial" you can buy an Eva rug with a large or shallow cell. Dirt, water will go to the bottom of the cells, the coating is easy to rinse, it dries quickly.

It's nice to share travel details. The holder for the camera in the boat will securely fix expensive equipment. Capture every minute of your adventures hands-free.

Planning to go fishing? Read our article about tuning an inflatable boat for fishing! The listed equipment, as well as other accessories for boats, kayaks, can be purchased in the TimeTrial catalog section “Accessories and Components”.

What is the difference between a kayak, a kayak and a canoe?

A sharp-nosed rowing light boat, easily going even through shallows and wetlands, is familiar to everyone, but few can determine whether it is a kayak, kayak or canoe.
