Built for durability and performance, the AIRSOLID-27 XXL is redefining the standards for inflatable boats. The Québec based company has been building boats for 34 years and AIRSOLID backs their craftmanship up with a 15-year warranty which cover the hull and floats for 10 years.
Measuring 26 feet long, with a stable 9-foot beam, this vessel is designed for rugged work and commercial use as well. The marine-grade welded aluminum hull, combined with the polyurethane composite canvas floats, offers supreme strength and control in rough conditions.
With a maximum capacity of 24 passengers and a maximum load of just over 5,500 lbs, the AIRSOLID-27 is great for heavy-duty recreation and tough jobs. As for power, options include either a single 300 HP or twin 150 HP outboards. A 200 HP engine is recommended for optimal performance.
This model’s hull is surprisingly light at just 900 lbs which vastly improves its fuel efficiency and makes for easier transportation. Owners can customize their AIRSOLID with a variety of items like consoles, benches, tables, water ski posts, and even a rigid aluminum roof.
AIRSOLID’s direct-to-consumer business model ensures competitive pricing and great customer service. Their 27-foot model is lightweight, super tough, and ready for any weather and conditions you can throw at it. They really live up to their reputation as the “4×4 of the seas”.
