The Achilles aluminum hull ribs let you go anywhere.

Achilles incorporated all the best features of their pacesetting HB fiberglass hull inflatable boats into the HB-AL series. These rugged boats feature a marine grade aluminum hull that is powder-coated to ensure a smooth, long lasting finish. They offer the advantage of being lightweight yet remark- ably strong and durable. A modified V hull, combined with their lightweight, allow HB-AL boats to cut through water efficiently with less horsepower.

All three HB-AL boats are single hull models that keep the weight of the boats down. They also all have non-skid deck patches for better traction, safety and comfort. All of this is in addition to a host of other great features perfected by Achilles through their years as a leader in RIB design and inflatable boat technology. The HB-AL boats are a great choice for boaters who want a fuel-efficient and well-performing RIB that can handle rocky coastlines, coral, frequent beaching, and anything else you can throw at them.
