Boat in a bag

Look how easy it packs into the back of a Mazda CX-5.

Drop the two split rear seats and the whole rig slides straight in — boat, high-pressure Air Deck floor, both aluminium bench seats, the oars, the under-seat bag, the Bimini (pulled apart and packed flat), the 22 PSI lithium pump, a small scud-type anchor and accessories, plus the outboard, fuel tank and life jackets. No trailer, no boat ramp queue. Pull up, carry it down, and you're on the water.

The bag pictured has an actual AeroCat 360 packed inside it, with the high-pressure Air Deck floor added. Our boat bags take everything up to a Viper 430.

  • · Hull, Air Deck floor, 2× aluminium seats and oars all in the one bag
  • · Under-seat bag, dismantled Bimini, 22 PSI lithium pump and scud anchor alongside
  • · Fits a mid-size SUV boot with the rear seats folded
  • · Garage-friendly storage — no trailer parking

The complete delivered price

Compare the landed price, not just the hull price.

Every price on this page includes air freight to your door Australia-wide. With 1500 GSM / 1.2 mm VALMEX® Heavy Plus fabric, the Viper is built as a complete long-term ownership proposition—not a low headline price followed by freight and upgrade costs.

Viper 365 vs Viper 400 — the honest answer

The only difference is 350 mm (35 cm) of length.

Customers keep asking us: "What's actually different between the Viper 365 Open Bow and the Viper 400?"Straight answer — the hull is 350 mm (35 cm) shorter. That's it. Same 1.2 mm German VALMEX fabric, same catamaran hull shape, same open-bow layout, same 5 + 2 year Viper hull warranty, same full-package inclusions (Bimini, LockPro Plus wheels, electric + hand pump, seats, bags, repair kit). Same build, same factory, same quality — just 35 cm shorter and lighter on the wallet.

Viper 365 Open Bow (this boat)
  • • Length: 3.65 m
  • • Capacity: 5 people
  • • Max HP: 40 hp short shaft
  • • Fabric: 1.2 mm VALMEX
  • • Warranty: 5 + 2 years
Viper 400 Open Bow
  • • Length: 4.00 m (+350 mm / +35 cm)
  • • Capacity: 6 people
  • • Max HP: 40 hp
  • • Fabric: 1.2 mm VALMEX (identical)
  • • Warranty: 5 + 2 years (identical)

Pick the 365 if you want a lighter, easier-to-store, easier-to-tow catamaran for up to 5 people. Pick the 400 if you regularly load 6 people or want the extra 35 cm of deck space. Everything else — the fabric, the hull, the finish — is the same boat.

The value question, answered

Why the Viper costs a little more — and pays you back for over a decade

No one else in this class is building on this fabric. Every Viper hull is 1500 GSM / 1.2 mm VALMEX® Heavy Plus — a third more material in every tube than the 1100 GSM / 0.9 mm fabric this size of boat is usually built from.

That's why we can do what the others can't: a 7-year hull warranty. And it's why your Viper is designed to last 10–12 years of real weekends, not two or three summers.

A cheaper 0.9 mm boat might cost less today. Realistically, in Australian sun, it's a 3–5 year boat — so you'd buy it twice in the time you own one of ours. You're not paying more for the same thing. You're paying for one build instead of two.

One boat. One build. It just works.

1100 GSM / 0.9 mm VALMEX fabric — the thinner fabric most boats in this class are built from
0.9 mm / 1100 GSM — the fabric most boats in this class use
1500 GSM / 1.2 mm VALMEX Heavy Plus fabric — the thicker fabric every hull we build uses

Floor
8–10 PSI hard AirDeck — lithium pump to approximately 2–2.5 PSI, then manual pump to final pressure
Commercial Construction
German VALMEX® 7321 Heavy Plus 1.2mm commercial-grade fabric
Transom
Fully horizontal grilled transom — open drainage, no bung, no plastic components. Plastic drain plugs collect prawn heads, weed and grit and become a permanent cleaning problem; ours flushes clear.
Packed Size — 1 × large Aerowave carry bag
~125cm x 70cm x 42cm — 1 bag for hull, removable floor, seats, pumps, repair kit and supplied accessories
Transom Height
380mm (as of 1 July 2026 — previously 405mm) — lower transom drops the prop deeper for more bite and eliminates ventilation & aeration at speed
Drainage
Grilled drain system — no plastic components. Plastic pop-up / bung drains trap prawn heads, weed and grit and are a nightmare to clean out; a grilled deck flushes clear every time.

What's included in the Full Package

15 items
  • 01
    Premium Catamaran Hull Platform

    Twin-hull stability for a more confidence-inspiring ride and reduced roll at rest.

  • 02
    German VALMEX® 7321 Heavy Plus 1.2mm fabric

    Commercial-grade fabric built for abrasion, UV exposure and long-term ownership confidence.

  • 03
    8–10 PSI high-pressure hard AirDeck floor

    Use the lithium pump only for the first minute, until the floor reaches approximately 2–2.5 PSI. Then switch to the supplied manual pump to reach the recommended 8–10 PSI. Do not use the lithium pump for final AirDeck pressure; it will not bring the floor to 8–10 PSI. The lithium pump is suitable for the boat tubes, where the over-inflation valves control excess pressure.

  • 04
    4 × Over-Inflation Safety Valves (one per chamber)

    Standard on every boat — premium pressure protection when heat causes air pressure to rise. Most competitors don't include these.

  • 05
    Full Bimini Top Kit

    Shade and comfort already sorted for longer days on the water.

  • 06
    LockPro Plus wheel kit — fitted during production

    The stainless mounting plates are secured to the transom with eight lugs, and the wheel storage bag is included.

  • 07
    2 × Removable Aluminium Bench Seats

    Flexible passenger and fishing layout options.

  • 08
    2× padded under-seat storage bags

    Two bags are included only with orders placed from 15 August 2026 onwards. Orders placed before 15 August 2026 include 1× under-seat storage bag. One bag carries Easy Inflatables branding; the other is identical in size, material and quality — just unbranded.

  • 09
    Premium Aluminium Grilled Transom

    Stronger rear mounting platform for improved engine support and durability — no plastic components.

  • 10
    2 × heavy-duty rod holders + 2 × deck-mounted rod-holder bases

    Bases glued to the deck by our production team; clip-in heavy-duty rod holders included — fishing-ready straight out of the bag.

  • 11
    22 PSI 12V lithium electric air pump with built-in battery

    Cordless inflation to full working pressure — no car engine, no compressor required.

  • 12
    Grilled deck drainage system

    No plastic components. Plastic bung drains trap prawn heads, weed and grit; the grilled deck flushes clear every time.

  • 13
    Heavy-Duty Bow Bridle

    Included for beach launching, towing and retrieval.

  • 14
    CE compliance plate and HIN fitted to the aluminium transom

    Supplied with the manufacturer’s Statement of Conformity. Registration requirements vary by state — check with your state authority.

  • 15
    1 × large Aerowave carry bag — included

    One primary carry bag sized to hold the hull, removable air deck, seats, pumps, repair kit and supplied accessories. Fits Aerowave boats up to and including the Viper 430.

Manufacturing quality control & compliance

Factory-to-door quality control and compliance checks

Before your boat leaves the factory, we run an eight-point quality control and compliance check against your exact order — fabric, seams, transom, inflation, fittings and pack list — so what arrives at your address is what you paid for.

1

Build sheet lock

Factory confirms hull colour, length, transom spec, floor type and fittings against your order before fabric is cut.

2

Fabric spec verification

We cross-check the VALMEX® GSM and thickness rating against the signed-off sample so the hull matches what was promised.

3

Seam and weld inspection

Every main seam, transom joint and chamber bond is pressure-tested and visually inspected before full inflation.

4

Transom and fitting stress check

Transom height, backing plate and motor-mount geometry are verified against the rated HP max for your model.

5

Chamber inflation test

Each air chamber is inflated to operating PSI and held to confirm no creep, leaks or valve faults before the boat is signed off.

6

Pre-shipment photo pack

We receive factory photos of your actual boat before it leaves, so any issue is caught before freight, not after.

7

Final pack-list audit

Seats, bags, Bimini, pump and accessories are checked off against your configured package list before the carton seals.

8

Door-step arrival check

You inspect on delivery. If anything does not match the compliance pack, we sort it — no arguments, no run-around.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What motor suits the Viper 365 Open Bow?

The Viper 365 is rated up to 30HP 4-stroke short shaft, with 20HP 4-stroke short shaft recommended for the best balance of cruise speed, economy and weight.

How many people does the Viper 365 carry?

Rated capacity is 750kg or up to 6 adults. The open-bow layout gives families room to move and fishos space to cast around the bow.

Why an open-bow catamaran instead of the enclosed-bow Sovereign?

The open bow gives you more usable deck space for fishing, gear, divers and kids, while the twin-hull catamaran shape still delivers stability at rest and a confidence-inspiring ride. The Sovereign keeps a fully enclosed forward locker for buyers who prefer that flagship layout.

Is the Viper 365 easy to launch and store?

Yes. It includes Italian 316 Stainless LockPro launch wheels for beach and ramp use, and packs into two bags (hull + floor/accessories) at approximately 125 x 70 x 42cm — fits most SUVs and 4WDs.

What warranty is included?

7-year structural hull warranty backed by Australian phone support, setup advice and spare parts. Premium German VALMEX® 7321 Heavy Plus 1.2mm fabric and thermo-welded seams are built for long-term ownership.

Is delivery included?

Yes — delivery is included in the price of every boat. Your boat ships by express courier (DHL Express, FedEx or UPS) door-to-door, up to 2 weeks after it is built. GST, import duty and customs clearance are all covered, so there is nothing to pay on arrival. The only extra is a flat A$300 remote delivery fee for a small number of remote Australian postcodes — that is our own charge for the extra road leg, not a courier surcharge. Enter your postcode in the checkout box above to see if it applies.

How do I inflate the hard AirDeck floor to 8–10 PSI?

Use the lithium pump only for the first minute, until the floor reaches approximately 2–2.5 PSI. Then change to the supplied manual pump to reach the recommended 8–10 PSI. Do not use the lithium pump to try to reach final AirDeck pressure; it will not work. The lithium pump is suitable for the boat tubes, and their over-inflation valves control excess pressure.
