Every boat you see this weekend can leave with more protection than it arrived with.

CHAPS
Highfield Dinghy CHAPS are custom-fit, marine-grade fabric covers designed to protect your inflatable tender's tubes from UV damage, heat, and dockside abrasions. Made from premium fabrics like Sunbrella, they offer low-maintenance defense against scuffs and scratches without requiring any invasive gluing or drilling to install.
Neversoft
The NeverSoft™ Automatic Valve Cap is a solar-powered, self-regulating system that continuously monitors and corrects your inflatable boat's tube pressure. By automatically topping up air during drops and venting excess pressure in extreme heat, it prevents dangerous seam blowouts without requiring any manual intervention.

Since their recent merge with the talent over at Fawcett Boat Supply I can only report excellent experiences with the refreshed Annapolis Inflatables. Rolando and team did a bang-up job on my RIB repairs and delivered ahead of schedule. Having this level of service available again in the Annapolis area should come as a huge relief for local inflatable owners.

Fawcetts/Annapolis inflatables is the best, one of my goto spots for 99% of things i need. Their selection/inventory on a wide array of things is second to none (particularly fasteners, running/standing rigging and associated bits and bobs, as well as just anything else you need TODAY. They even patched a few leaks in my new Achilles dinghy that was clearly was not a warranty issue for nothing. Top notch Annapolis...

If you want a place that really knows inflatable boats, this is it. Annapolis Inflatables delivers. The staff always seem to know what they’re doing and actually listen when you shoot them questions. The people here are helpful even if you come in with odd problems, and I’ve seen them hook up dinghies or engines, patch things up, or point you to the right boat without any pressure. Jessie is honestly the most know...

Excellent work from Scott and his crew at Annapolis Inflatables. They tried their best to repair a year 2000 Yamaha 200hp, but we finally had to agree that a new engine was the best path forward. Scott installed the engine, installed and a new Simrad GO 9 in mid-August, now have 25 hours on the engine, all running perfectly. Professionally completed at this certified Yamaha dealer, on-time and at a good price.

I never give five stars however they earned it, so my experience with them is this. I just bought a new hypalon dinghy, never hit water yet and I put a slice in it at the rub rail line. I was trying to prepare the boat material for glueing the new davit pads. I'm going on the loop in three days and i needed professional help to fix this tear and mount the davit pads and reg numbers.
Jimmy Franklin
There are simply too many choices for a new dingy! These guys very quickly narrowed my choice down to the best one (really the only one) that met my weight restrictions. It was a very good experience & I would certainly recommend them if you need help making a choice of boats or even small engines.

Jesse and the team at Annapolis inflatables were just fantastic. Really appreciate how they worked with me and met my deadlines so I could used our Dinghy on our cruise. Great advice and great delivery.

Thank you Barbara and staff for making it so easy to purchase my new Highfield CL310. The service, from the time I first called to taking delivery, was professional and informative. You answered all of my questions with patience and treated me like a highly valued customer. I HIGHLY recommend Annapolis inflatables.
Jeff Brady
David worked with us to make sure we were deciding on the correct inflatable for our needs. He ordered a 2017 CL310 Highfield and had it in when promised. Picked it up with accessories installed. Purchase went great and I definitely recommend these guys!
