The Island IA290 inflatable boat paired with the Parsun Joy 3 electric outboard is the largest roll-up tender in the Island range, offering maximum space, stability, and practicality in a highly portable package.
At 2.9m, this model is designed primarily as a tender for cruisers and yachts over 30ft, while also doubling as a versatile holiday inflatable boat thanks to its lightweight design and easy pack-down storage.
With seating for up to four people and increased load capacity, the IA290 delivers more space and comfort without sacrificing portability.
Built from 1100 denier (0.9mm) marine-grade Valmex® PVC for excellent durability, UV resistance, and long-term performance in Australian marine conditions.
All seams are permanently fused using advanced high-frequency thermo-welding technology, ensuring maximum strength and long-term resistance to heat, pressure, and saltwater exposure.
The inflatable Air-Deck floor provides a rigid and stable platform for standing, rowing, and boarding, while still maintaining lightweight portability for easy transport and storage.
As the largest roll-up tender in the Island range, the IA290 provides significantly improved internal space and seating capacity while remaining car and caravan transportable.
The Parsun Joy 3 electric outboard delivers smooth, silent, and maintenance-free propulsion equivalent to a 3–4HP petrol motor.
Ideal for marinas, yacht harbours, rivers, and calm coastal waters where quiet operation is essential.
Simple forward and reverse control provides intuitive handling for all experience levels.
At just 16kg, the motor is easy to carry, install, and remove for transport or storage.
Removable onboard battery with quick-release handle for convenient charging and handling.
Provides approximately 1 hour 20 minutes at full throttle, with longer runtime under normal cruising conditions.
Island Inflatable Boats have been designed for Australian conditions since 2000, focusing on durability, stability, and practical functionality. The IA290 electric package represents the largest and most capable roll-up tender in the range—offering exceptional space while still being easy to transport, launch, and store.
