A Passion for Detail.
At Walker Bay we take the time to consider every aspect of how our inflatable boats might be used. We pay attention to every detail to give our customers a better boating experience. From our biggest luxury RIB, the Walker Bay 22 featuring a portable head and oversized console, to our smallest inflatable tenders with multiple lifting points, we go the extra mile to give our customers the best products available.
All of our inflatable boats are designed to be more spacious and are easy to get in and out from the bow. A wider bow means you and your passengers can enjoy a more comfortable ride. Our unique modified Deep-V hull design provides a sharper entry point while cutting through waves and causes water to be directed back down for a smoother ride in rough conditions and less spray into the boat.
Superior Hull Construction.
SPIDER STRINGER GRID
Our Spider Stringer Grid construction used in our Generation 525, 450, 400, Venture and Generation LTE lines, absorbs wave impact, strengthens and lightens the hull and provides permanent positive flotation — all without adding to the boat’s overall weight.
The stringer manufacturing system allows for an evenly distributed load throughout the hull, providing extra strength when the boat is lifted. The stringer grid connects to the transom, ensuring better power from the engine to the hull. Additionally, the fuel tank, located in the bow and built into the stringer system, allows for better planing and performance in rough conditions.
SAFETY & CONSTRUCTION STANDARDS
Walker Bay exceeds all safety and construction standards of the United States Coast Guard (USCG), National Marine Manufacturers Association (NMMA), American Boat and Yacht Council (ABYC), International Standards Organization (ISO), European Conformity (CE).
DURATECH™
Our DuraTech™ fiberglass construction is an environmentally friendly vacuum RTM (Resin Transfer Molding) process producing components that are 40% more durable and 30% lighter than traditional fiberglass construction.
40% HIGHER GLASS TO RESIN CONTENT
Glass (fabric) = strength and more glass means a stronger hull. The DuraTech™ process better controls the application of resin resulting in a much higher strength to weight ratio.
A MORE ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY PROCESS
The DuraTech™ closed-mold process lessens styrene emissions, creating a lower emission working environment for operators.
Tube Construction
All Walker Bay inflatable boats are built using the finest materials available. They are designed to be incredibly durable and built to perform. Our relentless attention to detail means you can feel confident you own one of the world’s finest inflatable boats.
