Roll-up tender series

Unsurpassed convenience of a lightweight, roll-up tender.

Both our LS-RU rollup tenders can be stowed in a space just 10" high. With a roll-up wood/Achilles CSM fabric floor and solid transom, they can be inflated and ready to go in minutes. When they are, they deliver surprisingly large load and person capacities. Easy to carry, easy to set up, easy to store the LS-RU.

Aluminum roll-up series

Our Popular Aluminum Floor Rollups have been redesigned to look and perform even better!

We've added a new, sleek lateral seam tube design to these super convenient boats that feature a unique aluminum rollup floor which makes it a snap to get them in and out of the water quickly and easily. This is combined with an inflatable keel and V-shaped fiberglass-encased transom to enhance performance. Large 17" tubes allow the LSR tenders to carry heavy loads. Add in the improved buoyancy, extra load capacity and smoother planing provided by the Performax end cone design, and you have a roll-up tender that is tough to beat.

Sport tender series

This longtime lineup staple is now better than ever.

We have never stopped making our SPD boats better which is why they have remained popular with boaters for so long. That commitment to innovation and improvement has continued with tube and floor design enhancements. New lateral seam tube construction gives these classic inflatables a more modern, stylish design. Rope life-lines have been replaced with webbed handles and helmsman grip for a cleaner appearance. The three rear floorboards that bear the brunt of abuse are now aluminum to decrease maintenance and increase durability.

Air floor series

The first inflatable tenders made with Achilles high pressure CSM-reinforced AirFirm™ floors are better than ever.

Our Achilles high pressure, CSM drop-stitch AirFirm™ floors continue to provide the industry's toughest air decks. When you consider the abuse floors take from scrapes, the sun, salt water, oil and gasoline, it makes sense to have the toughest material available to protect them. And besides being durable, their unique construction consisting of thousands of polyester threads makes these floors remarkably rigid and incredibly lightweight as well.

Aluminum Rigid hull series

Vented bow locker and the ability to run a fuel line under the deck

Achilles HB-AX models feature a tough, powder coated marine grade aluminum hull with a full length keel guard to stand up to frequent beachings, coral, rocks, and other rough surfaces. The double heavy-duty rubbing strake on all HB-AX models offers addition protection to the tubes from rocks, docks, and pilings. All HB-AX models also come with a vented bow locker large enough to accommodate a gas tank, and the ability to run a fuel line under the deck that enables you to free up deck space that is usually taken up by the fuel tank and fuel line. It also helps distribute weight more evenly by moving the gas tank forward. The flat deck with non-skid patches also offers better traction, safety, and comfort. This unique design also allows water to flow under the deck to keep your feet dry if any water gets into the boat.

Fiberglass Rigid Hull Series

A Folding transom means these can be folded and stored

The Achilles HB-FX boats feature a unique folding transom, lightweight design, and full-length carry bag that combine to make these rigid hull models the easiest to transport and launch. Despite their lighter weight, both these popular FX models offer large load capacities and the ability to carry four people. The Achilles HB-FX series offers boaters the most convenient RIBs available.

Fiberglass Rigid Hull Series

A lightweight rigid hull series packed with high performance features.

The Achilles HB-LX boats provide the critically acclaimed performance of the Achilles DX deep "V" fiberglass hull design in a lighter RIB. They also have the same tube design as the DX series, yet a modification of the deck design and removing the bow locker results in a RIB that is on average 20% lighter than the same size DX model.

This means they can perform well with smaller engines and can be carried or transported more easily. Despite their lighter weight and lower cost compared to the HB-DX series, they are still loaded with all the high quality standard features for which Achilles is known.

Fiberglass Rigid Hull Series

These deluxe hard bottom inflatables offer boaters the best combination of style, performance and functionality.

Sleek, Euro-style tubes give them a stylish edge over other RIBs. A deep "V" fiberglass hull delivers superior performance while a built-in bow locker provides both a seat and a place for gear. If you want to take a step above the norm in a hard-bottomed tender, step up to an Achilles HB-DX RIB. Like every Achilles boat they are made with our own Achilles CSM fabric so they can handle the burning sun of the tropics or cold northern waters without fading or deteriorating. Choose a rigid-hulled inflatable that gives you a little extra. Choose an Achilles HB-DX.

Workboat Series

These versatile aluminum and wood-floored boats are the perfect solution for a range of uses.

They are rugged and roomy so they can be put to the test as dive boats, heavy duty tenders or utility boats. Their sporty nature also makes them great runabouts that really perform thanks to their deep "V" inflatable keel and large tube diameters. A range of quality features include a v-shaped fiberglass-encased transom and removable, dual position wood seat. Their Achilles CSM fabric and four-layer seam construction make these sport boats extremely tough... and tough to beat.

Workboat Series

These "top-of-the-line" models continue to set the standard for inflatable sport boats.

Achilles SG boats offer a roomy, square bow configuration which provides room for extra gear, and an aluminum and fiberglass floor system* which delivers superior rigidity and durability. Achilles SG Sport boats bring performance and practicality together for better diving, fishing, or all-around sport boating pleasure. They are also perennial rescue and emergency boat favorites of fire departments, first responders and others around the world. Our newest addition to the SG Sport Utility series is the SG-140SV, introduced in 2017. This new model shares most of the same standard features and specifications as our traditional SG-140 model, but incorporates intercommunicating valves and over-pressure relief valves in all the main air tube chambers.

Workboat Series

Built tough to work hard for rugged private and commercial use.

SU boats are made with an additional heavy-duty layer of 840-denier nylon Achilles CSM fabric in a two-ply technique which results in a fabric even stronger than a single base fabric of equal thickness. A number of commercial grade features such as recessed valves and a full-length, protective wear patch combine to make these boats the right choice for the toughest marine uses.
