The iBoat 260 is ideal if you're traveling alone on longer trips.
It offers enough space for two people to operate comfortably on site.
It comes with the proven high-pressure air floor including 2 full carbon airboards.

A tough test on the Po River in Italy.

For info
The iBoat fleet (since 2009) is now also available in the finest black carbon look.

Too hot? On the contrary:

Carbon black is cooler than Realtree or Classic Green , by the way.
because the carbon surface reflects a large portion of the sun.

A great feature: Not only is the new super-lightweight high-tech PVC in carbon optic, but also the handles on the boat and the two airboards for stabilizing the high-pressure air floor on the 260 and 320 models.
These are now made entirely of carbon fiber on all boats.

Superlight
Due to continuous development, the PVC (carbon black or classic green) is now noticeably lighter – indeed superlight – on all boats.

Weights and high-tech PVC

– the lightness of being – iBoats GEN5


The secret to the weight reduction lies in the new high-tech PVC.

  • It's better to roll it up tightly and store it in a smaller space.

    Thick rubbing strips
  • that one can safely pull the boats onto the shore and crash into a wall or similar structure.

Details:

- Boat hull: classic green
- High-pressure air floor: dark grey (less susceptible to dirt)
- Paddle: black lacquered
- Warm wooden bench: black lacquered + seat cushion
- iBoat logos on the side and front: brown / orange


DANGER:

Images in the online shop also show the use of earlier iBoat generations!

iBoats - the most sophisticated inflatable boats on the market (own development)

The iBoats have a significantly larger interior than
ordinary inflatable boats of the same length.
They are the ideal companions for the ambitious carp angler.
These are very good sizes for extensive sonar tours, setting up rigs, baiting, playing fish and, thanks to the large interior spaces, are also great to use as tackle boats.

Mark Dörner from CARPZILLA:
"Imperial Fishing's iBoats are extremely popular. No wonder, since Imperial Fishing was the first company to develop inflatable boats specifically for carp anglers. In our inflatable boat comparison, the iBoats also achieved the highest score."

A must have high quality Photo Printer for cheap!
If you’re searching for a high quality printer without breaking the bank , this is the printer for you. I had spent a good amount of time researching various printers and the picture quality they offered . I really spent my time looking this up . I found that the Picture quality on this printer is incredible . If you look at other models that can print 13x19 they cost way more. Now the ink capacity I’m not entirely sure about but I do know the ink can be expensive but it’s a trade off for getting an affordable printer without breaking super high quality pictures . Setup was very straight forward and it makes it essentially easy for anyone to connect to their network to print wired or wireless. You have the ability to print from your phone which is really amazing as well . All around this printer is great and if you’re hesitant you should just pull the trigger because you get quality with this model and affordability .

Ink is a problem
Printer is great. It prints very nicely.. had no problem setting up.. it all works fine. What I didn't like is the ink is kind of expensive and doesn't seem to last long. Once one color is out .. you can't use at all. Says "print in black" but it only allows that a few pages then it's done even tho there is black ink left. Epson customer service kind of sucks also.

Correction: Excellent value, quality and ease of use for color & grey scale; Wi-Fi firmware updates
Straightforward to install on my home WiFi network. The controls and screen are easy to navigate. Firmware updates can be done via WiFi—so much better than downloading an installer to a computer. Surprised that the maximum borderless print size is A3+. I don’t care, because I don’t mind a thin border on 13x19” paper, and intend to print 12x18” or smaller anyway for framing. Good results on real-world test prints with default color and tonal settings in Apple Photos. Astonishingly, perfect color and tonal range in my full-spectrum, full-dynamic range test print of a storefront on 13x19” Matte paper. A garden scene had true hues—borderless on 4x6” glossy paper—but was a bit dark. You wouldn’t notice if you only saw the print. Full tonal range B&W image on glossy paper lost some highlight detail and mid-tone pop compared to what I got from a commercial print shop using Luster paper, but I’m not seeing a color cast reported by others, which is very good news. I bought Epson again after a long hiatus because 1) I have a big stock of paper from pre-covid days, 2) ink cost is not a problem for my limited photo printing needs, and 3) the recent price drop offered a very low up-front cost. This one is smaller and very much quieter than its predecessor. It offers Air Print connectivity, but I prefer WiFi, even from mobile devices. Pretty happy so far. Already useful and B&W may improve with experimentation.

Beautiful, High-Quality Prints — A Great Photo Printer
I was looking for a good quality photo printer that could handle larger sizes, and this Epson XP-15000 really delivers. I’ve been so impressed with the print quality — the 13×19 prints come out beautifully: colorful, bold, and clean. Since it uses individual ink cartridges, it does go through ink pretty quickly, and buying all the separate cartridges isn’t cheap. But the results are worth it. The extra gray and red cartridges really make the colors stand out and give the prints a professional look. I’ve printed a number of images so far, and every single one has come out flawless. I’ve only had it a short time, but I’m extremely happy with it. Honestly, I do wish I had spent a little more and gotten the ET-8550 with the ink tank system, since it’s more cost-effective in the long run — but for what I paid, this printer still does an amazing job. If you’re looking for a printer for craft bags, chip bags, photo prints, stickers — this can handle it all beautifully. I’d definitely recommend it!

Easy to set up, print quality is excellent.
I've always been an HP guy but the ink has become so expensive that now I've got no choice but to look at other options. We needed a large format printer that could handle card stock and this printer after much research fitted the bill. We've done quite a few prints the the quality is exceptional. Set up was easy. The printer comes with a CD and quick setup manual, however we needed to go the Epson website to download the actual software suite to be able to print for our needs. The default drivers from the Windows auto installer were not sufficient because we were printing to a custom size of cardstock. After installation of the Epson suite everything was easy and we were off and running very quickly. WIFI connectivity from the printer was easy, the only thing that we had an issue with was the update from the PC however we updated right from the printer screen on the actual printer and it worked flawlessly. The printer has the regular 4 color cartridges as well as a red and a grey. The prints came out with great color accuracy and quality. After a few full page prints the black ink capacity was going down faster so we will purchase extra black ink first just to have it on hand. Also have to say that the printer is very very quiet and we didn't realize it was finished on most of the prints. Highly recommended printer.
