Inflatable Boat for the Ocean (and Sea)

Find a Best Value Ocean Inflatable Boat With a Navigator

Modern, high-tech PVC boats have made them an affordable and, most importantly, safe option for going out on the water. PVC boats have proven themselves to be reliable in the shallow waters of the ocean environment.

A vast, unpredictable, endless element is tempting in itself and the catch it can give. However, the ocean does not like carelessness.

Quality Inflatable Boats Characteristics

What design features should a boat have for the ocean:

  • PVC of high density (from 800 g / m2).
  • It is desirable to have a mounted or stationary transom for installing the outboard motor. Small inflatable boats without a transom are also used by fishermen in the ocean when going to shallow depths. They are inexpensive, not subject to state registration, and require a personal vehicle.
  • Hard bottom of the boat and an aluminum hull.
  • The presence of a keel. Keelboats are ideal for ocean travel. They quickly enter the planning mode due to the small area of contact of the bottom with water. It is worth paying attention to this particular type of PVC boat.
  • As for the choice of colour, it is fundamentally different for ocean boats, compared with boats that are to be used on rivers and lakes. It is better to go for a dark green colour in freshwater: this makes it easier to care for the boat during the water flowering. However, for use in the ocean, the best solution would be to buy a white boat: it will heat up much less, and fishing will be more comfortable.

Tips for Navigating Your Inflatable Boat in the Ocean or Sea Successfully and Safely

  1. It’s essential to ensure that your boat and engine are properly registered. Display the registration numbers prominently on the sides of the boat. Always have on hand the boat’s registration, license, and any other necessary documents when you are on the water. To keep these important papers safe and dry, consider storing them in a watertight bag while onboard.
  2. It is worth going to a depth no more than the boat’s recommended technical characteristics.
  3. It is highly desirable to have a boating partner, rather than sailing alone.
  4. The boat should have two pairs of good oars with broad blades, regardless of the presence of an engine.
  5. One life jacket per person, plus whistles. In an emergency in cold water, it may not be possible to scream for help, and the whistle is far away and does not require much strength.
  6. When fishing, you will need one or preferably two anchors (for fixing the boat in variable weather from the stern and the bow)
  7. Equipping the boat with an echo sounder significantly increases your chances of a big catch.
  8. Additional (spare) rope.
  9. It’s essential to have a first-aid kit on board. Ensure it is equipped for any health emergency that might arise.
  10. Do not neglect basic knowledge for survival, such as the skill of tying ocean knots on a rope.
  11. Knowledge of behaviour on the water will not hurt. For example, a simple rule can save you from many problems: never turn sideways to the wave.
  12. Avoid excess. Opt for a boat that has a capacity one step above your regular needs for added comfort and safety. For instance, if you typically boat with two people, consider a three-seater. If you usually have four onboard, a boat that accommodates up to six would be ideal.
  13. A knife and an empty plastic bottle per person might come in handy as well.
  14. A flashlight.
  15. An adequate supply of fresh water.
