BARK B-300NP Inflatable Boat – Three-Person Rowing/Motor Boat with Transom & Protective Strake

The Bark B-300NP is the flagship model among Bark’s 3-person rowing boats, packing all the extras into one craft. The “NP” designation hints at a combination of N (attachable transom) + P (protective strake), meaning the B-300NP features both an outboard motor transom and a reinforced hull strip. In practice, this means no compromises: you get a boat that can handle power like a motorboat while also being extremely resistant to bumps and day-to-day wear.

Measuring 3.0 m in length and 1.46 m in width, the B-300NP offers a generous cockpit and stability sufficient for comfortably carrying three adults and their gear. The integrated transom allows for a more powerful engine (up to 3.3 HP) than the standard B-300N, making this boat one of the fastest in this size range. You can achieve higher speeds when traveling or carry a heavier motor/battery with confidence, knowing the structure is designed to handle it.

The protective strake running around the boat’s perimeter adds peace of mind to every maneuver – whether you’re landing on an unprepared shore or the boat nudges against other vessels, this rubber bumper takes the friction and shocks, keeping the inflatable tubes safe. Combined with the firm slatted floor that prevents flex, the B-300NP demonstrates remarkable durability and performs excellently on long expeditions and frequent outings.

Despite having more features, the boat remains easy to handle, even with a motor mounted – the wide tubes (40 cm) and robust construction maintain stability at speed, and when you stop or switch to rowing, the boat behaves predictably and securely. The Bark B-300NP is fantastic for fishing trips with friends or family adventures: you can row quietly in calm coves, and when you decide to change spots or head back quickly, just fire up the engine and save time and effort.

Like all Bark boats, the B-300NP is constructed from premium PVC (850 g/m²) with reinforced seams and materials sourced from Europe and Korea. Each unit undergoes strict quality control. The 3-year warranty applies to this top model as well, giving you peace of mind for long-term use.

The kit includes everything: the Bark B-300NP inflatable boat, a set of 5 floor slats, the transom board (pre-installed), 2 benches, 2 aluminum oars, a foot pump, a durable carry bag, a repair kit, an operation manual, and a certificate. Even though it has more capabilities, the boat remains straightforward to set up – inflate the two air chambers, insert the floor slats and seats, and you’re ready to launch. The B-300NP is designed to deliver maximum convenience and reliability – from the moment of assembly, through your voyage, until you’re safely back ashore.

Recommended Uses:

• Ambitious fishing and sport: For passionate anglers who want it all – the B-300NP lets you fish quietly under oars and also cover water quickly under power. You can work large areas of a reservoir or river by motor, then cut the engine and stealthily approach hot spots with the oars. The protective strake will keep the boat safe when brushing against submerged branches or reeds in those hard-to-reach honey holes, and the stable floor gives you confidence when you’re standing to fight a trophy catch.
• Extended expeditions & water camping: If you love long water journeys, the B-300NP is an excellent partner. While rowing, you’ll appreciate nature at a slow, intimate pace, and with the motor you can zip through monotonous or windy stretches. You can load the boat with camping gear, provisions, and even extra accessories (e.g., folding chairs, a cooler) – the high payload capacity allows it. When landing on a wild shore, the protective bumper guards the boat against sharp rocks or shells on the beach.
• Multi-purpose utility: The B-300NP is so versatile that it can serve different roles in the same day. In the morning you might use it as a motorboat to check fishing nets or scout the area, and by afternoon – as a quiet rowboat for a family outing. It’s especially useful for people with diverse hobbies and tasks – from hunting and fishing to diving or wildlife photography, this boat adapts to your needs on the fly.
• Rescue/tender boat: Thanks to its full set of features, the B-300NP can also serve as a reliable backup boat on a yacht or a primary emergency boat for camps and outdoor centers. It’s compact enough to be transported on deck or in a vehicle, yet fully equipped for rapid response – with motor power for urgency and a rugged build to withstand any conditions. It’s a craft you can count on when it matters most.
