About Sevylor
The road from Sevylor's founding in 1948 to its current role as the dominant supplier of a wide range of inflatables--such as kayaks, boats, and towables--is a long one, with plenty of original inventions and innovations along the way. Established in a city suburb of Vitry, France, by electronics engineer Berco Grimbert, Sevylor originally built electrical accessories, with a sideline business dedicated to using its high-frequency welding machines to manufacture PVC consumer goods. The first inflatable to receive rave notice was a small bathtub called the Dou Dou. Perfect for postwar France, the inflatable tub was portable, convenient, practical, easy to clean, durable, and, best of all, affordable.

After moving to the picturesque Alsatian village of Buhl, the company expanded into developing valves, pumps, boats, inflatable pools, and a variety of water toys. In the ensuing years, Sevylor first developed a PVC that had "memory"--meaning it could return to its original shape regardless of temperature--and then made history by releasing an inflatable pool mattress with a headrest and circular pockets. In 1986, the company invented the Ski Bob, a real turning point in the evolution of the towables business. Today, Sevylor's innovative designs include tenders, hunting and fishing boats, specialty boats and kayaks, towables, snow tubes, air beds, pool floats, river tubes, swim and sport rings, and more. Whether you Feetre maneuvering rapids, meandering down a stream, or bringing guests out to your yacht, the Sevylor Colossus Inflatable Boat is ready, durable and certified by the National Marine Manufacturers Association. The Colossus 3-Person Boat is durably constructed of 20-gauge PVC, with four separate air chambers for security and puncture-resistance. The 3-Person Colossus measures 8 Feet5 Inch long by 3 Feet10 Inch wide, and holds up to 680 pounds. The Colossus comes with two oars and features dual oar locks and an all-around grabline. Guaranteed not to leak, thanks to Sevylor Feets exclusive Airtight System, the boat Feets Double-Lock Valves prevent accidental air loss and ensure quick, easy inflation and deflation.
