Why a Coastal Inflatable Boat?
FABRIC FEATURES QUALITY STANDARS CUSTOMER SERVICE
Some of our best experiences and favorite memories are out on the water. Alone, with friends, with family in weather fair or foul, boating is a unique way to experience nature and life. As the years roll by we want you our boat owners to get out on the water and have as much fun as we do.
Delivering features, value and quality requires constantly searching the globe for the best: market leaders using materials and best practices that set the standards.
We find that exceptional quality requires:
- Top Spec Materials - We work with materials suppliers who lead the global market in technical features, value and production quality
- Iterative Design - Every bit of your Coastal Boat is the result of years of careful refinement. What you say matters - we are always testing our boats and listening to our boat owners experiences and ideas for improvement
- Attention To Detail - Miracle materials and designs go a certain distance. Creating a machine that is more than the sum of its parts is a process of constant testing, calibration and retesting to ensure that the finished product lives up to the vision that created it
Our top tier fabrics are ORCA® CSM (Hypalon) from Pennel and Flipo in France.
