Google "inflatable boat" and you'll see lots of links/websites that want your business. At this time of looking, I didn't see too many sites that could handle selling you a boat in a single quantity without asking. Their method of payment may be a bit tedious also as they tend to deal in bulk purchases.
On their payment page, you may NOT see Paypal or Credit Card choices. Instead you may be dealing with their preferred bank or your bank.
It's interesting to see who is really making these inflatable boats and the brands that they have made them for. In China, they just make the boats on a large manuafacturing scale. Selling quantity of one boat may not be of interest to them so don't be snubbed if you don't get responses from attempts to contact them.
Be aware of the region/location of the manufacturing site, sometimes shipping may become a challenge to get your boat to your country. On average (ballpark) I see $600 USD costs to get your boat with wood floor shipped from them to you (of course it's ocean freight)! Ribs will cost you more but I haven't gotten there yet.
Not all Inflatable boat manufacturers are getting their boats made in China; you might be surprised on who has.
Here's my list of who I have found that have websites for you to browse thru just click on the link to see what they have:
Qingdao Lian Ya Boat Co.,Ltd.
Qingdao Shinkwang Boat Co., Ltd. (As of 2008, maker for Zodiac)
Qingdao Yandao Boat Manufacturing
Aoqiinflatables
China-inflatable
Sunriseboats
HaoHaiBoat
Look at the comments for more reported manufacturers websites. As I find out more I'll come back and update this page.
