Achilles HB-385DX Inflatable Boat | 12'8" Length, Fiberglass Hull, Hypalon Tubes | HB385DX

The Achilles HB-385DX Inflatable Boat is 12'8" long and 5'11" wide, weighing 255 lbs, with Hypalon tubes, a deep-V fiberglass hull, a capacity of 7 persons or 1,790 lbs, and a maximum motor rating of 40hp Long Shaft.

The sleek, Euro-style tubes give the Achilles HB-DX Series a stylish edge over other RIBs. A deep "V" fiberglass hull delivers superior performance, while a built-in bow locker doubles as a seat and a spot for gear. If you want to step above the norm in a hard-bottom tender, step up to an Achilles HB-DX RIB. Like every Achilles boat, it's made with Achilles' own CSM fabric, so it can handle the scorching tropical sun or cold northern waters without fading or breaking down.

The Achilles HB-385DX is the largest RIB in the DX series. Its long, full flat deck has tons of room for big families, pets, guests, gear and so much more, and several center console options are available for this hull. Hypalon fabric, a bow locker and durable accessories are standard. With its deep "V", expect it to plane with 5-7 people, with 7 being the max.

Achilles is known worldwide for tough, long-lasting inflatable boats made with its own CSM fabric and four-layer seam construction, built to handle harsh sun, salt water and hard use. That's why Achilles boats are a favorite for everyone from weekend boaters to fire departments, rescue teams and commercial operators.
