Chinook Inflatables Ltd.; cover, cost and conditions

Chinook Inflatables Ltd. appears in our records as a maker of inflatable boats, with models dated 1988 to 1994. Our sources do not reliably confirm where it was based or how it started, so this page describes the brand through its range alone. That range runs from a small tender to an inflatable of almost seven metres and is organised in five lines: B 3, Sports, Clubman, Sea Fury and Ocean. The names make sizes easy to read, because the number is the length in metres: the Sports 3.7 is 3.7 metres long, the Sea Fury 5.8 exactly 5.8 and the Ocean F 6.7 exactly 6.7. Only the B 3 models break the rule, all three measuring 2.8 metres.

Our model records list eleven Chinook designs, ten inflatables and one rigid inflatable. The B 3 line has three 2.8 metre models: the B 3 Dinghy, the B 3 Tender and the B 3 Rib, the only one with a rigid hull. Sports is the broadest line with four models, from the Sports 3.7 through the P 4 and P 5 to the P 5.5. Clubman is represented by the C 4.5, Sea Fury by the 5.8, and Ocean by the F 6.0 and F 6.7. All eleven share the same build years, 1988 to 1994. Six models measure 4.5 metres or less, five between 5 and 6.7 metres.

A Chinook today is more than thirty years old, and the tubes decide how much life is left in it. Check seams, valves and transom bonding before each season, keep the boat out of strong sun and store it dry. The B 3 models are tenders by name and travel on a yacht's deck or davits. The Sea Fury and Ocean boats from 5.8 to 6.7 metres are proper day boats for the coast, launched from a trailer.

Licence

Required inland and at sea from 15 hp (11.03 kW); below that, none.

Waters

Inland lakes, the coast and the Wadden Sea, mind the tide tables and the fairway.

Equipment

Cruising range

RIBs close to the coast; check air pressure before every trip and after temperature swings.

Weather

From Beaufort 4 the ride turns hard, and offshore wind sharply raises the risk of drifting.

what governs are the rules of the waters you are on and the manual of your Chinook Inflatables
