YKL (Korea); cover, cost and conditions

YKL appears in our records as an inflatable boat maker labelled Korea. We have found no reliable source on the company itself, so this page describes only what the range shows: inflatables from small tenders to boats for an outboard. A YKL carries a two or three letter code, usually starting with Y, and a three digit number giving the length in centimetres, so a YDX 240 is 2.4 metres. Ten codes appear, from MAS and YAS to YKS, YRB and YWS, and some lengths turn up in several series.

Our model records list 33 models, all inflatables, built between 1995 and 2006 and none in current production. Lengths run from two to five metres, with half between 2.6 and 3.8 metres. The YDX series has the most models, eight sizes from two to 3.3 metres, followed by the YDA series with six sizes from two to 3.7 metres. The longer boats sit in the YAS and YKS series at 3.8 to 4.7 metres, and the longest model is the YWS 500 at five metres.

A YKL of this age is a second hand tender, fishing boat or lake boat today. The fabric and glued seams decide almost everything: tubes that hold pressure overnight, a sound floor and transom, valves that seal. Boats stored dry age far better, and the outboard often carries more value than the boat.
