Why Should You Buy A Newport Inflatable Boat

Performance

The 9ft 6inch Del Mar model inflatable boat is the perfect mix of portability and performance. The oversized 18 inch tubes make this dinghy one of the most stable boats on the market; whether floating at the dock or traveling at high speed. The wide footprint of the 9ft 6inch Del Mar makes for a solid foundation for easily boarding and loading the boat. This solid foundation makes for a low center of gravity and stable ride platform during times of high speed and turning, and with the inflatable keel and a 8-10hp motor, it’s easy to get on plane!

Construction

Newport inflatables are made with high quality Korean PVC, the seams are Hot Air Welded. All of this adds up to make a dependable boat with great performance for years to come.

Build

Newport maintains a meticulous manufacturing process focused on quality control, including pressure, leak, UV, and stretch tests throughout the boat’s construction. Started in 2008 the Newport design team is constantly improving our inflatable boat designs and manufacturing quality controls to create superior inflatable boat products.

Newport Highlights

  • Extremely Portable
  • 18in Tubes - Unrivaled Stability
  • 1,100 Denier Korean PVC - Durable Material
  • Hot Air Welding - Stronger Seams
  • Strict Quality Control - Better Quality Inflatable

newport vessels hard floor inflatable dinghy tender boat frequently asked questions

Frequently Asked Questions

  1. How many people can it sit comfortably? - Max seating is 4. It comfortably sits about 2-3 persons.
  2. What is Aluminum Framed Marine Plywood? - It's marine plywood that has aluminum around the border. This allows the pieces to connect to each other.
  3. How should I store my dinghy? - Clean, dry, deflate, roll up and store in a climate controlled environment. If inflated, use a cover to protect it from UV rays and do your best to keep it out of direct sunlight, heat, humidity and extreme colds.
  4. What should the middle Bow D-Ring be used for? - Not for towing! This is a grab handle that should be only used for lifting the boat, mooring or to tie the anchor onto. Improper use will damage the D-Ring and is not covered for replacement if damaged. Use a bridle to tow your dinghy.
  5. How do I know if my dinghy is fully inflated? - The supplied foot pump is designed NOT to over-inflate the boat. Pump until air is no longer being pushed into the chamber and all wrinkles are gone.

    Almost Made The Mistake Of Buying A Saturn...
    After a horrible ordeal attempting to purchase a Saturn brand boat, we decided to re-think our upcoming inflatable boat purchase. We had an extremely salty taste in our mouth due to the extremely unprofessional and down right anti-customer centric attitude Saturn Boats presented us. We were so ticked off that we were ready to default to the trusty standard of Zodiac, at a much higher price point; Zodiac after all is the "named" segment leader. That said, we owned a Zodiac years ago which was fantastic and another one more recently which was just OK (good warranty but build quality seemed the same as most of the other reputable brands). Having both discussed and coming to terms with the idea of a smaller, less know manufacturer (based on the fact that manufacturing and materials have greatly improved over the years which allows smaller manufacturers to compete with the big names), as well as overcoming Saturn's complete lack of customer focused sales practices, we opened our options to other, similar vendors. Amazon and Newport came to our rescue! The Newport Catalina has proven to be a stable, trustworthy vessel. Solid construction. It feels and looks like a stout, well built boat. There is little to complain about (but I will below), other than the typical solid floor boat complaints that inflatable boat owners complain about (they can be tedious to assemble / inflate, this applies to all wood / aluminum floor inflatables). Having owned several inflatable boats, the Newport Catalina is right up there with the best. In fact, I was torn between the Newport and an Inmar, choosing the Newport in the end (both are great values and great options).If you follow the 25% inflate rule while assembling and installing the floor, the build process is actually a breeze (inflate all chambers to 25% except keel, align and install floor, install stringers, make sure alignment is on point, finish filling all chambers then fill keel). This takes a majority of the aggravation out of the equation. It still takes some muscle to hold the tubes back and to maneuver the floor boards in place, keep that in mind.Things I don't like? A few... There should be handles in the front of the boat, 1 on either side, to aid maneuvering the boat at shore and when a wheel kit is attached. I wrote CS regarding purchasing a set and they don't have them 😑. It's also not super easy to keep clean being white, it takes a bit of effort to keep it looking fresh. I'd like the seat mounts to be longer fore and aft to allow more customized placement of the benches. A better bailer would be nice. Finally, a set of d-rings or a built in strap on floor panel #5 would be great to secure a gas tank.In the end we are please with our purchase. We're super happy with the quality of our Catalina. We'd definitely consider Newport in the future and we'd most certainly recommend them to friends and family.To those that may wonder about the outfitting done to ours in the pictures I've uploaded, the list is as follows:(1) Naviskin 6ft Bimini Top - Dark Grey - AZN(4) Brocraft Grey Glue On Mounts - AZN(4) Dkluub #6268 Bimini Mounts - Etsy(1) Oceanbroad 3M Self Adhesive EVA Foam Flooring, 105" Brown/Blk - AZN(1) Seamax Deluxe Black Edition Wheel Kit - AZN(1) Maximarine Lifters (Trim Tabs) - maximarine.com(2) SailorBags Seat Cushion Bags - Grey - Defender Industries(1) 8oz NRS Stabond Adhesive - NRS(1) Each of a WhiteDuck Duffle (all accessories), Gator Cases 58" Speaker Stand Bag (bimini top) - AZN(1) Navisafe Inflatable Complete Light Kit - AZN(1) Samman Fire Extinguisher Mount - AZNI hope this helps!

    Reviewed in the United States on December 3, 2023
    It is a bit of a challenge initially, but when you assemble/disassemble it a couple times - it is easy. You must have a good electric pump though.

    The boat goes well under a 55lb Newport trolling motor (100Ah LiFePO4 battery is a must) - about 4 mph. I also put a 12 hp gas outboard on it (short shaft two-stroke Hangkai) - it goes on plane easily and rides well at about 15 mph. I'd guess 10-18 hp is the right size motor for it, I would stay away from smaller engines.

    Overall, a season of fun lake boating and big kudos to Newport and Hangkai for their quality products.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Great inflatable boat
    Reviewed in the United States on November 29, 2023
    I’m new to the world of inflatable boats and was a bit skeptical buying one from Amazon, but prime day arrived and I made the purchase and don’t regret it at all. This boat comes with everything you need to hit the water straight out of the box. You do not need a stand alone pump for inflation as the included foot pump works very efficiently! The materials feel very durable and well made. I had everything inflated and assembled by myself in about 30 minutes on the first try, it has been quicker once I got the hang of it. The floors are the trickiest part of assembling, but if you follow instructions it’s not too difficult. If you are planning on using a gas powered motor and your state requires registration then you must contact the manufacturer. This was fairly simple and they mailed out the necessary paperwork free of charge. Deflating the boat is also quick and included are 2 storage bags, one for the boat, one for the floors. Overall this is a solid seaworthy vessel that has brought me hours of joy!
