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 7-year 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: 7 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: 7 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.

About this boat

The story behind the build

Aerowave Viper 365 Open Bow — 3.65m Premium Catamaran

The 3.65m mid-size Viper — the sweet-spot inflatable catamaran for Australian families and coastal weekenders. Big enough to run four adults, small enough to pack into the back of a wagon or caravan.

The Viper 365 is built with the same 1.2mm German VALMEX® 7321 Heavy Plus commercial-grade fabric used on our 4.0m flagship.

Built for

Australian families wanting a real day-boat that fits in the garage
Coastal weekenders, fishos, and crabbers on calm to moderate water
Yacht and cruiser owners who want a serious catamaran tender / stand-alone runabout
Buyers upsizing from a 3.3m who want more room and load capacity

Why this boat

1.2mm German VALMEX® 7321 Heavy Plus PVC
Thermo-welded seams — no glued joints to fail in the tropics
True catamaran twin-hull ride — dry, stable, plane-ready with modest horsepower
8–10 PSI high-pressure air deck with woven core — rigid, packable
Over-pressure safety valves on every chamber — same spec as commercial rescue craft
CE certified to ISO 6185-3 and EU Directive 2013/53/EU
Full Bimini sun top included in the package

Backed by a 5–7 Year Limited Hull Warranty

Comprehensive cover on hull fabric, welded seams, valves, air deck and fittings.

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 — every boat includes Express Delivery Credit, Australia-wide, approximately 30 days door-to-door via our direct Hong Kong → Sydney sea service (about 14 days at sea plus customs, biosecurity and courier delivery). Your price includes GST, import duties and standard delivery — no surprise charges on arrival. Optional DHL Express air-freight upgrade is available for faster delivery, and remote-area addresses may incur a checkout-calculated surcharge.

Fabric is the whole story

The market ships 0.9 mm.
We ship 1.2 mm.

Nearly every comparable catamaran in this class rolls off the line on an 1100 GSM / 0.9 mm VALMEX® PVC hull — or 0.9 mm Chinese PVC. Ours ships standard on 1500 GSM / 1.2 mm VALMEX® Heavy Plus — German-woven, the same fabric family used on RFDs, workboat tenders and CE-rated commercial ribs. We're one of very few builders in the world putting this fabric on a recreational catamaran at this price.
