Achilles SU-16

OVERVIEW

SU boats are made with an additional heavy-duty layer of 840-denier nylon Achilles CSM fabric in a two-ply technique which results in a fabric even stronger than a single base fabric of equal thickness. A number of commercial grade features such as recessed valves and a full-length, protective wear patch combine to make these boats the right choice for the toughest marine uses.
