If you have an air deck you need a high pressure pump.

Wisdom in here says the Bravo HP or there is a cheaper Rule pump but you will need to top up with a high pressure manual pump.
I got my HP pump from ribshop who are a ribnet supporter.

I can pump the boat up in 10 minutes. Thats 5 separate compartments with a low pressure then go found again with high pressure. The rest of the time is faffing with the outboard, fuel and picnic etc.

I have always used my hand pump up till now,hard work that takes at least 20 minutes,so i think its time to get an electric one Genovo do one fan pump to start with , and then piston to finish off with higher pressure,very costly though,but you can set your pressures at whatever you want.

Just bought a 2004 Tohatsu 9.8 2 stroke for the sib and also a Genovo Power air pump,that should help speed things up.Need some 2 stroke oil now.

Quicksilver 2stroke is what I feed mine.
