Description
Built tough to work hard for rugged private and commercial use. The Achilles SU Sport Utility boats are made with an additional heavy-duty layer of 840-denier nylon Achilles CSM fabric in a two-ply technique which results in a fabric even stronger than a single base fabric of equal thickness. A number of commercial grade features such as recessed valves and a full-length, protective wear patch combine to make these boats the right choice for the toughest marine uses.The Achilles SU-18 inflatable boat is the largest of the SU sport utility series. This is a very rugged craft designed for commercial, rescue, and utility operations. Recreational activities requiring a vessel that support heavy loads suit this inflatable, since it can support up to 4,630 pounds, over two tons. Top features include a heavy duty rigid deck system, recessed valves, bailer sleeve and a full chafe guard. With the use of a 90 horsepower outboard, this boat can successfully plane with up to 11 persons.
