    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.

Entry into the range

The cheapest way into a 1.2 mm hull — from A$3,050.

Most first-time buyers start with a A$1,500–A$2,500 boat, discover the 0.9 mm tubes are weeping at the seams by season three, and buy again. The Swift Tender is built on the same 1500 GSM / 1.2 mm VALMEX® Heavy Plus fabric as the flagship Vipers — the same 10–12 year hull, in the smallest, most affordable size we make.

  • ✔ 2.30 m · 3 people · from A$3,050
  • ✔ 2.70 m · 3 people · from A$3,250
  • ✔ 2.90 m · 4 people · from A$3,549
  • ✔ 5-year hull warranty on every tender
Range starts at
A$3,050

Budget-conscious, but not a budget boat. One build that lasts, instead of two that don't.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What outboard suits the 270 SI?

Rated to 10HP. A 5–8HP outboard is the practical everyday choice; 10HP for those who want to plane fully loaded.

Can two adults fish comfortably?

Yes — the 270 SI is our sweet spot for two adults fishing or diving in bays and estuaries.

How does the aluminium floor compare to an air deck?

The rigid aluminium floor gives a firmer underfoot feel — better when standing to fish or moving gear. Air decks are lighter to pack; aluminium is more solid on the water.

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.
