Under Pressure! Saturn SD518 Inflatable Boat Inflation.

Under Inlfation and problems it can cause. Proper order for tube inflation with functional Over Pressure Valve.

Great video. One thing to add, is when boat fully inflated, there should be no wrinkles visible on tubes. Tubes surface should be as tight as drum.

Absolutely, thanks for watching and for the input!

Good info, well done! I had not known about filling front to back and there were bellows… that makes perfect sense! Does the keel have an overfill vent? I kinda always worry about popping it..

Hi Dave, no the keel does not have an overflow. But it’s also never exposed to the heat of direct sunlight and once in the water is cooled by the ambient water temperature. So it doesn’t have the same pressure variance risk as the other tubes.
