I use the Genova GP80 speedy air pump. It’s the exact same as the raptor one but cheaper without the carp tax obviously 😂

I have one off amazon for about 90 quid that is battery powered and pumps all the way to full pressure and also great for deflating too, I'm new to boating but this is a godsend really is!

I see loads of people on video's using foot pumps for their inflatables & have noticed that a few companies are now doing battery powered pumps which are quite pricey.


I really hate manually pumping up inflatables & have been using a Coleman 12v pump for my boats for the last 6-7 years & it has been a godsend. Super cheap, super light & runs straight off my motor battery. (red ones on amazon).

Whilst it doesn't get all the way to the necessary pressure needed on most boats, I found it does 95% of the work & I finish off inflating with a manual pump for the last part. (The expensive pumps go all the way) Prob worth noting that it isn't great for air decks either but they don't take much time IMO.

My boat used to take me 20 mins inflating with a footpump & these half that - I just plug it in & leave it whilst I sort out other bits.

They do a handheld battery powered one too which sits in a rucksack with my little dinghy which is handy for shorted baiting up trips.

They don't do 100% of the work but for less than 30 quid they do most of it.
