Lightweight Yet Built to Last:
Harrington have developed the Lightweight Pro developed for boaters who want a genuinely portable inflatable dinghy without sacrificing durability or confidence on the water. Constructed from robust 0.7mm PVC material, the inflatable tubes provide excellent resistance to wear while maintaining a lightweight overall design. The reinforced seams, heavy-duty fittings, and rigid inflatable floor all contribute to a dinghy that feels secure and dependable whether rowing, boarding, or operating with an outboard motor.
Unlike many lightweight inflatable tenders, the Lightweight Pro features a 3+1 chamber construction, offering an additional air chamber compared to some alternatives for increased safety and buoyancy. The 38cm tubes further improve stability and help create a dry, balanced ride in changing water conditions.
Designed for Easy Transport and Storage
Practicality is built into every aspect of Harrington's Lightweight Pro inflatable dinghy. The entire inflatable dinghy can be quickly deflated, rolled, and packed into the included backpack-style carry bag, making transport and storage straightforward whether you are travelling by car, campervan, yacht, or motorhome. The storage bag itself features padded backpack straps, multiple carry handles, durable webbing, and a zipped front storage pocket for accessories.
The lightweight construction allows for easier launching and recovery, while strategically positioned carrying handles and lifting eyes simplify moving the dinghy onshore or when using davits.
Stable and Comfortable on the Water
The inflatable air floor provides a comfortable, rigid platform with a textured surface that improves grip underfoot and enhances onboard confidence. Combined with the wide tube diameter and balanced hull design, the lightweight dinghy delivers reassuring stability whether used for short transfers, fishing trips, or recreational boating.
A centrally mounted aluminium bench seat can be adjusted to suit different users and load configurations, helping maximise interior space and comfort. The included oars are secured using durable PVC rowlocks and quick-access retainers that make stowing and deploying the oars faster and easier, especially for children or less experienced users.
