Great boat
Great for our sailboat tender. I was able to bring as oversized luggage an a plane. Easily stores in vberth when away. Light enough that I can hang it from solar arch and did not have to spend big money for davits. Planes easily with two people and a 9.8 outboard.

Air Floor is way better than boards! Planes w 6hp
Super firm and tough. Awesome feature that valves deflate instantly. I think achilles is the strongest best tender on the market and the air floor is a breeze to use vs boards. It deflates and rolls up. Zero hassle. Fits in my Tartan 34C lazarette. Was able to get it to plane with yamaha four stroke 6hp but im heavy over 230lbs so had to optimize to diff prop pitch and add little fins on the outboard. Photo upload option seems broken as i could not add photos.
