Boatworld Lite 170

Compact, clever, and designed for easy getaways, the Boatworld 170 Lite is the smallest in our Lite range, built for those who want maximum convenience without compromise. Weighing only 18.2kg* and folding neatly into its own backpack, it’s the perfect tender or dinghy for stowing in a cockpit locker, car boot, or camper van.

Despite its size, the 170 Lite holds its own on the water thanks to its integral V-shaped planing hull, which ensures smooth, reliable tracking whether you’re rowing or running a small 2hp outboard. Set-up couldn’t be simpler—just inflate, no slats or air mats required. With built-in carry handles at the balance point, one person can easily lift and shoulder-carry it once inflated. Practical, portable, and ready to launch at a moment’s notice, the 170 Lite is a true grab-and-go boat for your next adventure.
