The AB Alumina series is the lightest and most durable center console tender available. Featuring an aluminum hull with a modular console design, these boats require less horsepower than their fiberglass siblings. The AB 9.5ALX is compact and weighs under 400 pounds once laden with an outboard. Davit lifting hardware is built into the boat along with a boarding step on the bow, which includes a compact cleat and navigation lights.
