Take a recreational ride with two of your favorite friends with the Sevylor Caravelle three-person inflatable boat. Ideally suited for calm rivers and lakes, the Caravelle is durably constructed of 16-gauge PVC that's guaranteed not to leak. Sevylor also added its patented oval "boat-within-a-boat" DIN safety chamber, which inflates inside the main outer chamber to keep you afloat even if the chamber gets punctured. With the DIN chamber, you can float down the river secure in the knowledge that you won't sink.
The boat features an inflatable floor for daylong comfort, along with sturdy oarlocks that double as handles for easy transport. And when paddling gets old, the Caravelle includes fittings for an optional Sevylor SBM 12-volt electric motor. Other details include Double Lock/Mini Double Lock valves for fast inflation and deflation and a convenient all-around grabline. NMMA-certified, the Caravelle three-person boat measures 7 feet 6 inches by 4 feet 6 inches, holds up to 600 pounds, and carries a 90-day warranty.
About Sevylor The road from Sevylor's founding in 1948 to its current role as the dominant supplier of a wide range of inflatables--such as kayaks, boats, and towables--is a long one, with plenty of original inventions and innovations along the way. Established in a city suburb of Vitry, France, by electronics engineer Berco Grimbert, Sevylor originally built electrical accessories, with a sideline business dedicated to using its high-frequency welding machines to manufacture PVC consumer goods. The first inflatable to receive rave notice was a small bathtub called the Dou . Perfect for postwar France, the inflatable tub was portable, convenient, practical, easy to clean, durable, and, best of all, affordable.
After moving to the picturesque Alsatian village of Buhl, the company expanded into developing valves, pumps, boats, inflatable pools, and a variety of water toys. In the ensuing years, Sevylor first developed a PVC that had "memory"--meaning it could return to its original shape regardless of temperature--and then made history by releasing an inflatable pool mattress with a headrest and circular pockets. In 1986, the company invented the Ski Bob, a real turning point in the evolution of the towables business. Today, Sevylor's innovative designs include tenders, hunting and fishing boats, specialty boats and kayaks, towables, snow tubes, air beds, pool floats, river tubes, swim and sport rings, and more.
Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism
Used twice on the beach for fishing. Is really meant to hold 2 adults with barely enuff space to hold yr gear. Hasn't leaked yet, is light and easy to transport, is hard to manoeuvere in the water though; tends to spin around in circles. Make sure to get the oars and pump also; easier to inflate and deflate. use only in calm waters.
