Horizon Boats
An open boat for every job
The brand
Horizon runs one of the broadest open-boat catalogues in the country across Angler, Pathfinder, Square Punt, Allrounder, EasyFisher and Stalker. The Pathfinder range in particular is highly relevant for buyers comparing ultra-small hard dinghies against inflatables.
One of the broadest Australian open-boat families.
Our take
The 240 and 320 Pathfinder sizes are among the few hard dinghies that genuinely compete with a 2.5–3.2 m inflatable on practicality.
