Achilles HB-240AL HB-AL Series Aluminum RIB Inflatable Boat, 2021

The Achilles HB-240AL is a 7'10" rigid inflatable boat with Hypalon tubes on a powder-coated aluminum hull, the smallest model of the HB-AL series. It takes up to a 6 HP short-shaft outboard and carries 3 persons or 880 lbs, at a dry weight of 88 lbs.

The tubes use Achilles pearl grey Hypalon reinforced fabric with four-layer seam construction, and the aluminum hull has non-skid patches and a keel guard. The aluminum hull makes this a durable, light tender that handles beach landings well.

Fittings include a fold-down locking oar system, towing bridle D-rings, a welded bow eye, an inside davit lifting bow eye, stern-mounted davit lifting eyes, transom towing eyes, carry and helmsman handles and a bailer valve. A removable rowing seat, a foot pump and a maintenance kit are included.
