How to Inflate the 12ft Battle Boat in (6 Easy Steps)
Step 1: Unroll the Battle Boat and remove it fully from the carry bag. Lay it out flat in your desired launch location.
Step 2: Add a small amount of air to the tubes—just enough to give the boat its general shape.
Do not fully pressurize the tubes at this stage. This step is only to prepare the boat for rigging.
Step 3: Inflate the drop-stitch floor completely to 7–10 PSI until it is firm and rigid.
Step 4: Return to the tubes and fully inflate each air chamber to 3.5 PSI.
This is the ideal time to attach your seats in your preferred configuration.
Step 5: Inflate the keel/hull for improved tracking and ride quality.”
Step 6: Install the oars by placing them on each side of the boat and snapping them securely into place.
When the number one watersports brand—known for award-winning paddleboards and iconic yacht and boat floats—teams up with the number one inflatable boat brand, the result is something truly special.
The boat had to have purpose. Having spent our lives on the water—on boats big and small—we saw a level of complacency settle into the industry. That realization became our inspiration. This project needed to exist.
Building boats for ourselves and sharing them with others has always been the DNA of POP and Rover Marine. That bold attitude, paired with thoughtful design language and intentional lines, quickly shaped one of the most unique dinghies on the market.
This wasn’t just a product launch. It was a statement.
It was almost as if the name came first and the boat came second. The Battle boat takes the traditional tender and dinghy form and gives it attitude—finished in a bold color we call Battleship Blue.
The idea was simple: create a take-anywhere, do-anything boat with no limits on fun or exploration. One platform that could adapt to whatever the day brings.
Whether you’re fishing with a couple of buddies, jumping in for a snorkel, or moving effortlessly from boat to boat during a sunset cruise, the Battle boat is built to get the job done—and do it in style.
After you place an order, my uncle saddles up, loads it onto his horse, and takes off in a full gallop toward your address. :)
But for everyone else, FedEx and UPS stop by POP Camp daily around 3:00pm to pick up shipments. They’ll get your order delivered cleanly and reliably in about 2–5 days.
Why buy a POP Board? Because life’s more fun in color. Our boards are built tough, ride smooth, look amazing, and come with everything you need to get on the water fast. We make gear that turns any lake, river, or coastline into your playground — and we stand behind it, every time.
People don’t just buy a POP Board — they buy into a story. A story of innovation, design, and a brand obsessed with making the water more fun. We were the first to digitally print SUP boards, the originators of the inflatable dock, and the team that keeps pushing the industry forward. POP is for those who want more than a board — they want a lifestyle, a community, and a product built with intention.
