BARK B-300 Inflatable Boat – Three-Person Rowing Boat with Spacious Cockpit

The Bark B-300 stands out as one of the most spacious and stable rowing inflatables in the 3-meter class. Thanks to its optimized design, the boat’s cockpit (approximately 2.20 m x 0.66 m of inner usable space) offers comfortable seating and ample legroom for the crew and their gear. This makes the B-300 practically unique among 3 m rowboats – it can, with sufficient comfort, accommodate up to four persons (e.g., three adults + one child) in calm water conditions. The large tube diameter (40 cm) adds extra stability and buoyancy, giving everyone on board a secure, confident ride.

As a pure rowing boat, the B-300 does not have a built-in transom, which in turn contributes to its lower weight (only about 26 kg) and quicker setup time. A key benefit of the motor-free design is ease of transport – even a single person can carry and assemble the boat with minimal effort. While it doesn’t include an integrated motor mount, the model is compatible with an optional attachable transom board should you decide to add a small engine later. This gives owners flexibility: you can start off enjoying the B-300 as a straightforward rowboat, without any extra weight or complexity, and still have the option to upgrade with a motor in the future if your needs change.

The Bark B-300’s ribbed floor consists of 5 sturdy wooden slats that create a stable deck, allowing you to stand confidently inside the boat. This is an important advantage when casting a fishing rod, taking photographs, or simply stretching your legs on a longer outing. The slats install easily and prevent the hull from flexing, making the floor feel solid underfoot. With its excellent buoyancy and high load capacity (~375 kg), this boat can safely carry plenty of equipment – be it extra fishing tackle, camping gear, or even a battery and trolling motor if you ever choose to use them.

The hull is made of reinforced multi-layer PVC (850 g/m²), sourced from top-quality manufacturers in Germany and Korea. This material is highly resistant to abrasion, punctures, and UV light, ensuring the boat remains durable even under frequent use. The Bark B-300 is designed and hand-crafted in Ukraine with great attention to detail – the seams are reliably glued and each boat undergoes thorough quality testing. The manufacturer backs it up with a 3-year warranty, which further guarantees your investment in the long run.

In the B-300 package, you’ll find everything needed for boating: the boat comes with a pair of aluminum oars, two robust wooden benches, a foot pump, a full set of 5 floor slats, a sturdy carry bag for storage and transport, an emergency repair kit, a detailed user manual, and the necessary certificates. The entire package is compact when packed, intended to be stored at home or in the trunk of a car without hassle.

Recommended Uses:

• Relaxed family outings: The Bark B-300 is an excellent boat for family cruises on lakes, reservoirs, and gentle rivers. Its spacious interior lets you bring small children aboard and ensures they have a comfortable and safe experience on the water. The silent operation of rowing is perfect for families who want to enjoy nature, watch birds, or simply spend quality time together away from the noise of everyday life.
• Fishing with friends: With its stability and load capacity, the B-300 is well-suited for 2–3 anglers with all their gear. The boat’s wide beam makes it easy to cast from different positions, and the solid floor allows you to stand up securely when casting or reeling in a catch. Since there’s no built-in motor on this model, there are no vibrations or engine noise to disturb the fish or the serenity, which is a plus when stealth and quiet are needed to catch wary fish.
• Exploration and picnic trips: If you love to explore coves and shorelines, the B-300 is a reliable partner. Thanks to its light weight, you can carry the boat to remote water bodies or launch it where formal ramps aren’t available. Pack some food and drinks, paddle to a secluded shore and have a picnic – the boat can hold plenty of supplies and can be safely beached on shallow water or sand due to its tough floor and hull.
• For boating beginners: This model is a great choice for individuals who are getting their first boat. The B-300 is easy and intuitive to handle with oars, and it behaves in a stable, predictable manner on the water. With no additional complications such as engines to worry about, beginners can focus on learning basic rowing techniques and water safety. If needed, they can always add a transom board and small motor later on when they feel ready to expand their boating experience.
