The new 9'6" Saturn Triton Dinghy Tender have been a huge hit and inventory is going fast as the new Triton models just arrived! The Triton Series upgrades for 2025 represent our largest ever upgrade package and include over $450 additional value over the standard heavy-duty series. The Triton upgrades offered for this model include our heavy-duty 35 OZ Suijia 1.2mm 2000 Denier PVC ($250 value and over 30% thicker than our Standard model), UK imported Leafield D7 inflation valves and A6 PRV valve ($150 value), fiberglass coated marine grade plywood transom ($50 value), 2000 cc capacity 7.2psi barrel pump ($50 value), and an extended 3-year warranty. These Triton series improvements incorporate the newest technologies in inflatable boat construction and provide an incredible value for those looking to put their boat to the test. If available, this option will be listed under the "Model" selection.

The 9’6” Saturn Inflatable Boat is an excellent tender boat for a yacht or sailboat. It is also a perfect life raft that can be easily stowed in a small area the size of a large suitcase. Its’ size also makes it perfect for 2-3 passengers looking to get from point A to B and has been a HUGE hit with RV-ers looking for a reliable craft to use on both lakes and seas. This boat is lightweight and can easily be carried by a single person making it perfect for a picnic with a wife/child or to get out and do some fishing when you’re on vacation. A small electric motor can quickly move you around the lake while a 9.9 HP outboard can plane this boat in an instant.

Tough, durable, lightweight and stable the 9’6” Saturn Inflatable Boat is ideal for all types of lake activities including cruising, picnicking, fishing and sunbathing. The high-pressure air floor is sturdy and makes a perfect platform to stand and fish.

With its’ simple setup, the 9’6” Saturn Dinghy takes just minutes to inflate and carry on your back down to the lake. It breaks down into a perfect size to fit in the trunk and takes up very little space in your RV. Fully inflated, the size is perfect for the roof of your car or truck. Without the need for a trailer your family will love the ability to take it with you on your vacation.

The 9’6” Saturn Inflatable Boat can handle up to 4 persons and comfortably seats 2 adults and 1 child. It supports an outboard motor of up to 10 HP (short shaft) but will manage effectively with an electric trolling motor

2020 9'6" Saturn Dinghy - BlueThe 9’6” Saturn Inflatable Boat inflatable boat is made with our standard 1,100 Dtex PVC with a high density polyester fabric.

The double layers of fabric at the bottom of the tubes and rub-strake protector along the keel provide extra protection from sharp rocks and abrasive sand.

Comment
I’ve attached two pictures of our Saturn raft which were taken this year during two of our camping trips. The first picture (with the boat sitting next to the shoreline) was taken in MT on Hyalite Reservoir. The second picture (with me sitting in the boat holding the outboard motor’s tiller) was taken during a horse pack trip in WY on Cloud Peak Reservoir.

We have been very pleased with the Saturn and we look forward to many more years of use.

Great photos Paul, thanks for sharing! Gotta love the blue boat for the high alpine lakes.
