2022 Achilles LSI-290E
About This Yacht
The 2022 Achilles LSI-290E is a 9.5-foot rigid inflatable with a composite hull and a single engine. Built on Achilles' high-pressure design, the boat features CSM drop-stitch AirFirm air decks engineered for durability and performance. The deck construction uses thousands of polyester threads to create a rigid, lightweight platform resistant to scraping, UV exposure, and chemical damage from saltwater, oil, and fuel.
The boat is equipped with Performax tubes designed to work with modern 4-stroke outboards, paired with an air keel for improved handling. The stiffer air floor and extended waterline geometry allow the boat to plane quickly and maintain plane at lower speeds. The combination of these design elements produces a responsive, efficient ride across the water.
At 5.17 feet in beam, the LSI-290E offers a manageable platform suited to day boating and tender work. The construction methods prioritize both performance and longevity in the demanding marine environment.
