DESCRIPTION
Description
The global Inflatable Boat market size is anticipated to be valued at USD 1.21 billion by 2029, registering a CAGR of 5.0% during the forecast period. Inflatable boats are marine watercraft constructed with flexible tubes that are inflated with compressed air or other gases, allowing them to be easily transported and stored when deflated. Their lightweight yet durable design makes them suitable for a variety of on-water activities.
The onset of the COVID-19 pandemic negatively impacted market growth in the short-term. However, as restrictions eased and recreational activities resumed, the market demonstrated positive momentum. Key end-use sectors such as recreational boating have shown promising signs of recovery.
Over the forecast period, key market drivers include rising consumer spending power globally, enabling greater participation in water sports and leisure. Government regulations in various countries now mandate the use of inflatable boats for passenger transport, given their safety advantages over rigid-hulled vessels. Their flexible design also makes them well-suited for search and rescue operations during disasters.
