2026 AB Inflatables Mares 12 VSX

The AB Inflatables Mares 12 VSX is a compact rigid inflatable designed as a practical tender or day boat. At 12 feet with a 6-foot beam, it combines a durable fiberglass hull with inflatable sponsons for stability and handling in varied water conditions. The single-molded fiberglass deck contributes to quieter operation and long-term durability, while the lightweight construction makes hauling straightforward via the four integrated davit lifting points.

The boat features a sport console layout with a windshield and cushioned seating arranged for comfort during extended time on the water. The non-skid deck provides secure footing, and storage is distributed throughout—a flip-open rear seat and concealed bow locker give flexibility for gear or provisions. The design prioritizes both accessibility and practicality for family outings, fishing, or exploring.

Power comes from a single 40 hp Yamaha gasoline engine, suited to the boat's size and intended use. The construction balances lightweight handling with durability built to support years of regular operation.
