Just got a 12v pump off amazon for about £100. You need one that displays the PSI/BAR pressures so you can inflate the boat correctly. As others have mentioned, an airdeck floor usally needs inflating much higher than the individual boat tubes. I previously had the Nash 240 and from memory i'm sure the chambers were 25kpa (0.25 bar) and the floor was 68kpa (0.69 bar).

Make sure you get a SUP pump that rates up to the required PSI for the boat tubes & the inflatable floor - floor is usually higher & need it to be rock hard for it to do it's job
Loads of options on Amazon and the like, I bought a cheap one first for 50ish from memory, lasted me a couple of seasons of trips (multiple inflate/deflate each time, plus transport boat & mat) before packing up. Invested in a proper one that was 100ish and it's done a season and a half without fault

Depends on the Flextail pump, you'll need to make sure its PSI output can inflate the boat to its required PSI 👍

Don’t know about flextail but when I had mine I used a small 12v one and it was spot on probably took 5minutes from memory it was a Raptor x wide 👍

I'm getting either a 180/230 size dinghy....would one of those flextail pumps do the job or do I need something with a bit more oomph?
TIA
