The LockPro wheels make launching solo a breeze. Couldn't be happier with the purchase.

Why 1.2mm matters
Three fabric grades. Yours to choose.
Most competitors in this market only build in 0.9mm fabric. We give you the choice: 0.9mm VALMEX® on the AeroCat, 1.2mm VALMEX® Heavy Plus on the Viper (33% thicker hull), or step up to Orca CSM/Hypalon for the toughest tropical and commercial conditions.
Lightweight / tender
0.9mm VALMEX®
What most competitors build. We do too — on the AeroCat.
- 0.9mm German VALMEX® fabric
- Light enough to launch solo
- Perfect yacht tender / day boat
- Not built for heavy commercial duty
Most popular
Serious skippers
1.2mm VALMEX® Heavy Plus
33% thicker than 0.9mm. Built on the Viper.
- 1.2mm Heavy Plus hull — 33% thicker
- 5–7 year hull warranty
- 12 PSI high-pressure air deck — no flex
- Same fabric as workboats & rescue craft
Premium upgrade
1.2mm Orca CSM/Hypalon
The fabric used on top-tier commercial RIBs.
- Superior UV resistance — tropical-rated
- Maximum abrasion & chemical resistance
- Available as an upgrade on any Viper
- Built for saltwater commercial service
One brand. Three hull grades. Pick the boat that matches how hard you push it.
Pack-up & pack-down
1.2mm Viper — folds away like a 0.9mm tourer.
Two short videos showing exactly how the Viper packs up into the Bluewater kit bag and stows on a caravan, ute or RV. Thicker fabric, same easy fold.
Pack-Up
Viper 1.2mm — Folded Into The Bluewater Kit Bag
Watch a full Aerowave Viper 1.2mm catamaran fold down and slide into a single Bluewater kit bag. 33% thicker than TrueKit — and still travel-ready. Caravan, ute tray, or RV gas-bottle nook: it stows.
Pack-Down
Inflate, Deflate, Stow — The Aerowave Viper Workflow
From rolled-up to on-the-water and back again. Our commercial-grade 1.2mm Valmex doesn't punish you for going thicker — deflation and pack-down are just as fast as a flimsy 0.9mm tourer.
Overview
The sun is one of the toughest elements your inflatable boat will face. This Australian-made protective boat cover is designed specifically for the 4.0m open bow Viper catamaran and other 4.0m open style catamarans, helping shield your boat while inflated and ready to use. Built from 90% UV-blocking black shade cloth, it is a practical, heavy-duty cover for owners who want better long-term protection, cleaner presentation, and smarter setup handling. Also works as ground protection during setup and pack-down.
