ABOUT COASTAL INFLATABLES:
Coastal Inflatables showroom is moving on
May 22, 2012 to 16 Swamscott St, Newfields, New Hampshire. This
move will combine our showroom and storage warehouse into one convenient
location. Our home office and mailing address will remain at 25
Kinloch Dr, Stratham, NH, 03885. Coastal Inflatables was founded
in June of 2005. We started our business with the goal to provide
quality inflatable boats at a fraction of the price of some of our
well known, and expensive, competitors such as West Marine, Zodiac,
& Mercury (just to name a few). We are the exclusive importer and
distributor of Coastal Inflatable boats supplied to us by our manufacturer
located in Korea. We work with our manufacturer to add features
to our boats to improve the quality of our product. Some of these
features are available only in Coastal Boats. In 2008, we expanded
our products to include Tohatsu Outboard motors.
We work very
close with the manufacturer to produce the boats just the way
we want them. Quality is of the up most importance to us. The
"V" shaped inflatable keel hull affords excellent seaworthiness
for coastal and estuary waters, also ideal for use as tenders,
recreational, fishing and diving craft. Coastal Inflatables are
fully compliant CE Category "C" for inshore use, unlike many competitors'
boats which are only "D" category for inland use. Our warranty
program has been increased to 5 years! That is how confident we
are in our boats!
We maintain a large inventory of boats on hand,
but occasionally some of our more popular sizes sell out quickly.
If you are interested in a Coastal boat, reserve yours now before
we run out. If you are interested in purchasing a Coastal Inflatable
boat, complete the online
form and a sales representative will contact you. If you are
in the local area, visit us at an upcoming boat
show and see firsthand the quality of our boats.
How can we afford
to offer our quality boats at such an affordable price?
Since Coastal Inflatables deals
directly with our manufacturer, we purchase our inflatable boats
at extremely reasonable prices which we pass on directly to you,
our customer. We purchase our boats in large quantities directly
from our manufacturer and have them shipped to directly to Boston,
MA. This allows us to eliminate many of the transportation costs
that contribute to the high prices of our competitor's boats.
We keep our overhead low as possible. We then pass on these savings
directly to our customers. Our company has experienced a rapid
growth in the past few years. In 2008, we added a showroom to
better display our boats to our customers. We market our boats
using our company web site as well as being an exhibitor at the
local boat shows throughout New England. Boat shows are our favorite
way of allowing our customers to see firsthand the quality of
our boats. Once you see them for yourself, the boats sell themselves!
Customers can better appreciate the quality and the workmanship
put into our boats when they can get the opportunity to see them
"firsthand". Our boats do not lack quality when compared to more
recognizable brands such as Zodiac and are very similar in design
and quality. In fact most of our customers believe they are every
bit as good even though price is significantly less than what
you would pay for the other boats.
We reduce costs at every opportunity
without sacrificing Customer Service. Customer
Service is what drives our business. We realize excellent customer
service is the key to any successful business. At Coastal, we
do not "nickel & dime" our customers at every opportunity. Some
of our competitors attempt to "nickel & dime" their customers
by charging for seats or charging for extended warranty coverage.
This will not happen at Coastal.
We are constantly seeking ways to improve
our boats:
We add features to our boats that our customers have requested
to make our product better. We listen to our customers. Coastal
was one of the first to offer aluminum floors. We put davit lift
points on all our inflatable boats. We include splash guards on
most of our boats. In 2011, we added a heavier around, durable
rubber strake (from 90mm to 110mm). We also added a tie down for
the outboard's gas tanks. We listened to our customers and upgraded
the hand pump that is included with every boat to the BRAVO 4-ALU
Heavy-Duty, High Volume Hand Pump with pressure gauge. We also
upgraded the straps that hold the boat seats to a heavier, dual
layer strap.
In 2012, we added a 2" access hole at the rear of our air
& aluminum floosr to allow for a hand pump to access below
the deck to pump out any water that may accumulate between the
deck and the bottom of the boat. This is another idea from some
of customers. We will continuously add features to our boats to
make our product even better.
Referrals:
Referrals from existing customers
have become a major factor in our company's success. We do everything
possible to make sure your transaction with Coastal Inflatables
is an enjoyable one, one that you will always feel good about
it. When you buy an inflatable boat from Coastal, you will know
you got a quality boat at a very reasonable price. We ALWAYS treat
our customers the way we would want to be treated ourselves.
