Classic Hypalon Boats - & - Crazy Old Lovable Outboards
We have a varied range of beautifully made classic Hypalon SiBs in stock, some of which are still made today(SMT), but sadly lots are not - we think its because they would be far too expensive. The learned will know that these boats go on for decades(50 years+) which explains their original high cost.
Hypalon is recognised as being a highly superior fabric and it is sometimes refered to as neoprene. Its a fabric that can withstand very high temperatures and is notably long lasting due to its added UV protection qualities. Below is a sample of the stock we currently hold.
