Abstract: An inflatable boat with a motor mount for use in shallow water conditions. The inflatable boat with the motor mount has a U-shaped hull in plan view, which is formed by open outline of inflatable boards and nose, as well as a transom installed on the boat stern and an inflatable bottom attached to the hull from below, and which bottom has an axissymmetric groove laying longitudinally from the stern end. The groove is V-shaped in cross-section. The depth of the groove is reduced uniformly in direction to the bottom nose. The inflatable boat according to the present invention allows expansion of usage specifications of the inflatable boats with motor mount, provides an additional guard for the outboard motors installed on them against possible mechanical damages and lowers fuel consumption in comparison with the boats of similar design.
