Capt Bill's boats!
About
North Atlantic Inflatables was founded by USCG licensed captains who were looking for a reasonably priced, high-quality inflatable boat and couldn't find one. Our Maine-based company is owned and operated by Rob & Bridget O'Brian. Rob is a Naval Architect who has brought many innovations to the world of inflatables. We pride ourselves on bringing reliable, safe, high-quality inflatable boats to the US market at reasonable prices. Our boats come with both a 5-year manufacturer's warranty and customer service that stands out in this industry. You'll work directly with the owners who take pride in their boats designs and quality. North Atlantic has grown dramatically as more and more boaters discover the advantages of buying a North Atlantic.
The North Atlantic fleet includes:
-
"Traditional" inflatable boats from 6' 6" to 12' 6" with aluminum panel or air deck floors (larger sizes can be custom ordered)
-
Fiberglass rigid hull (RIB) boats in standard "runabout" configuration or with center consoles up to 21'
-
Aluminum rigid hull (RIB) boats from 7'6" up to 21' in stock or custom configurations
Larger size aluminum and fiberglass boats come in Hypalon fabric only. Smaller boats come with the option of PVC or Hypalon tubes. We also carry inflatable fenders in many sizes, with or without fleece covers, as well as Tohatsu gas motors, TEMO, and ePropulsion electric motors.
Looking forward to meeting you!!

Customer Testimonial
"Our North Atlantic Inflatable has been, flat out, awesome. It's been a big part of our voyage from the Arctic to Cape Horn and now out to the South Pacific.
We just did one our Captain's Hour zoom calls listing all the gear that has worked well and the North Atlantic Inflatable RIB is on the list.
It's been the best inflatable dinghy I have ever had, without doubt, and I have a lot of them."
