Zodiac Pro Open 650 VS. Bombard SB 620

[overexposed2x]

I'm in the process of buying a new boat. I have heard a rumor that the Bombard 620 has a heavier layup than the Zodiac 650. I am aware that both are made by the same company and have contacted the local rep who says that the layups are the same. Any thoughts?

Hello, i see you are not too far from Vancouver so you should give inflatable boat services a call. 604 940 6308 and ask for cormac. I have the zodiac pro 550 and the layup is very weak. the last time i saw cormac he had a bombard 600 and the layup was a lot heavier duty then my boat. depending what you will use your boat for i would be carefull with any leisure line zodiac as with mine i have had to do a lot of hull and deck repairs however i am fairly hard on the boat. do you still have your mark 6, if so give me an email.

I looked in to the pro 650

I am told its the same hull as the bombard.

the 650 seems very small inside for a 6.5 m boat
