Avon Boats

Established in 1959, Avon has earned a reputation for being one of the premier inflatable boat manufacturers. With boats that are hand-built with Hypalon-coated fabrics, Avon is known for building practical boats with European flair. Although wooden oars are standard for Avon boats, any oar can be substituted and will work efficiently. Since 1959, Avon has produced over 200,000 inflatables and rigid inflatable boats. Standard features include a fiberglass hull, deck courtesy lights, a stern stowage compartment, and stern tie down points. In November 2009 , Avon introduced the Adventure Open 850 model, which comes with larger storage space, removable tubes for easier maintenance, and high gunwales to protect the tubing. Avon boats cost anywhere from $1,500 to $89,000 and come with a ten-year warranty and a wide range of support services. No matter the Avon boat, it can be assembled, inflated, and ready for launch within minutes. Better still, Avon boats are designed to seat passengers comfortably and safely, providing for an enjoyable ride. With safety top-of-mind for Avon manufacturers, Avon is pleased to hold the record for the most record rescues of any rescue watercraft. Carefully-designed hulls and lightweight blueprints allow Avon boats to move with maximum performance with the highest possible fuel efficiency.
