| Rugged Series
The Rugged Series Delphins are for boaters needing a high quality, affordable roll-up dinghy. Made of the same premium PVC material as our Advanced Cat boats, the Rugged Series Delphin offers a high-performance inflatable boat at an attractive price. A high-pressure inflatable keel tube on most Rugged Series Delphin models provides a V-Hull shape for increased stability and maneuverability.
The Rugged Series Delphin models range in length from 9'6" to 18'4" and are available with aluminum floors. The triple-lapped, reinforced seams are secured using premium polyurethane glues. Flexible internal baffles that equalize pressure between tube sections and premium valves make the Rugged Series Delphin boats simple to inflate and maintain air pressure.
The new Rugged Series of Delphin Boats feature an additional heavy-duty layer of thick rubber under the hull and floor areas for added protection against rocks, beaches, and floating debris.
All Delphin Tenders Feature:
- Heavy duty, hand-built construction using 1100 Decitex PVC coated fabric
- Continuous lifeline incorporates raised splashguard keeping passengers safe and dry
- Marine–ply, fiberglass encased transoms for secure and safe motor mounting
- Thick, pliable rub strake with splash guard around entire boat for lasting protection
- Five Year limited air-holding warranty on fabric and transom, one year on parts and accessories
- Simple assembly and breakdown – can be easily rolled up and stowed
- Models available with aluminum floors
- Removable aluminum rowing seat
- Captive oarlocks and two-piece oars making rowing easy and accurate
