Bombard Commando C3 – 12-Foot 6-Inch Professional Grade Inflatable

Description

Carry a 25 HP recommended short-shaft outboard on the Bombard Commando C3 Z5132, a 3.80 m, or 12 ft 6 in, foldable inflatable boat with a 40 HP maximum rating. Its anodized monoblock interlocking aluminum floorboards use integrated accessory-profile rails, while the three-part rigid wooden keel forms the stated rigidity system. The 98 kg net weight and two-bag configuration should be considered before transport and launch planning.

Strongan Duotex 2×1100 decitex PVC fabric and Thermobandage high-frequency welded seams form the listed tube construction. This model has three main buoyancy tubes, a six-person ISO capacity, and a 750 kg maximum payload rating. Semi-recessed Easy-Push valves, a 15-inch short-shaft transom requirement, and a 98 kg maximum outboard weight define key setup and engine-selection limits.

Before Ordering the Bombard Commando C3 Professional Inflatable Boat

Confirm that you can transport and assemble the 98 kg boat through its separate hull bag and floor-and-keel bag arrangement. You should use a 15-inch short-shaft outboard, select 25 HP as the recommended power level, avoid exceeding 40 HP or 98 kg engine weight, and remain within the six-person and 750 kg capacity limits.
