Why this choice and my first steps with my inflatable boat Excel 430 X/HD?

When we decided to buy a boat, my choice it is quickly going towards a inflatable boat foldable, indeed spending my holidays in the caravan, I needed a compact and transportable boat in my car, and having a ratio size/power satisfying, the most suitable model was a boat of approximately 14 feet long with an engine if possible of 30 cv.
It is with the Nautical Show of Paris December 2006 that I found my happiness in the stand EXCEL.
It is about the Excel model 430 X/HD of red colour, been driven by a Tohatsu engine 2 strokes of 30cv.
On receipt of the delivery in March, I was impatient to discover in its entirety and to install there the launching wheels. I make a point of specifying that the handbook of edge is very readable and that the complete assembly of the boat is very simple.
The formalities of registration being realized, I could test it in April on the Lake Hourtin (in Aquitaine!).

The boat is equipped in series of 2 sites, particularly practical for piloting, in extra, a bag of site and of prow the standard equipment of all inflatable boats of this size. With 2 adults on board, the engine insures a fast lift-up. The hull with its deep keel ensures a good behaviour at high speed (about 15 to 18 miles nautical), the piloting is very simple. It there not of rolling on this kind of boat and cruising is very pleasant, moreover the interior is vast, the deck non-skid aluminium, and the side bathing ladder is fixed easily at the reinforcements of the transom.
In a few words, I am very happy with this boat about an excellent ratio quality/ price.
