Achilles LEX-88 Inflatable Boat | 8'8" Length, Wood Floor, Hypalon Tubes | LEX88

The Achilles LEX-88 Inflatable Boat is 8'8" long and 4'9" wide, weighing 69 lbs, with Hypalon tubes, a wood floor, a capacity of 4 persons or 900 lbs, and a maximum motor rating of 6hp Short Shaft.

These timeless tenders still offer the classic inflatable look and function that made them so popular. The Achilles LEX Series is the result of years of subtle refinements that keep it current while holding on to its traditional style. A sleek bow and plenty of interior space come together in this classic tender, and a teardrop rub strake deflects spray and protects against those inevitable bumps with docks and boat hulls. You also get a painted wood seat and a full sectional wood floor.

All in all, the Achilles LEX-88 is a solid, reliable tender that packs practicality and performance into an economical package.

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.
