That Essential Quality...

That essential quality that is APEX has been achieved through a commitment to quality and years of blue water experience. As we insist on nothing but the best we naturally choose Dupont's Hypalon for all our boats. This unique, reinforced fabric provides the best possible resistance to damage from ultraviolet rays, oil and gasoline spills, as well as from life's other little knocks, and it offers an easy-to-clean finish.

Hypalon is able to withstand wide temperature variations, affording owners the confidence to cruise tropical islands or explore Arctic regions, safe in the knowledge that their quality APEX boat is built to withstand the elements.

Our boats are built to last. We use only heavy duty Hypalon - for toughness - over a 1,000 Dernier Polyester reinforcement - for stretch resistance - while Neoprene, on the inside provides the maximum airtightness.

Make Roll-Ups Fun and Easy...

Our Roll-Ups provide you with the stability and performance of a traditional board floor. The hinged, segmented panels unroll to form a full rigid base, yet allow the boat to be rolled up easily with the floor still in place. Adding further excitement, APEX Roll-Ups come with an inflatable keel, offering true planing performance. They provide exceptional ease of handling, and what could be easier and simpler for storage in a car, a boat, or a closet?

RIBS- Rigid Inflatable Boats...

(Fiberglass Hulls)

The APEX RIB provides maximum usable space while taking up minimum valuable storage space. This is accomplished by our broad, blunt bow and rounded tubes at the stern. APEX RIB's combine the stability of an inflatable and the performance of a rigid boat. With an APEX RIB you get three times the load carrying capacity at half the weight. Light-weight, large tubes and deep V entry provide outstanding performance and fuel-economy even with smaller horse power engines!

Standard Features

Full, raised, lightgray nonmarking rubrail / heavy duty lifeline / molded rubber cleat handle / bow towing ring / three hoisting U bolts / foot pump / repair kit.

Models A-8 thru A-11 have adjustable, feathering universal oar locks with oars and fiberglass bench seat.

Model A-12 comes with two paddles.

Models A-15 thru A-24 come standard with center console including tinted windsheild and grab rail. Front model fiberglass base with running lights and stainless steel cleat. Keyed lockers / double upholstered seat / backrest / steering / built-in fuel tank with approximately 300 mile range capacity / bilge pump. - Except Open models which come bare.

In certain cases, the boats on this site are shown with optional equipment.

And why the bigger tubes, you ask ??

Quite simply, larger tubes provide more buoyancy and more stability; plus a big plus from the security aspect. And as for comfort, larger tubes ensure a vastly better ride and minimize spray by keeping water outside the boat where it belongs and you drier inside.
