The AB Inflatables A 15 2011 vs AB-Inflatables Lammina 10 UL 2013 comparison sits squarely in the category of decisions where specs alone won't tell the whole story — intended use, storage, and long-term ownership costs all factor in.
Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The AB Inflatables A 15 2011 measures 15,0 feet overall (2011), giving it roughly 5,0 additional feet of deck space compared to the AB-Inflatables Lammina 10 UL 2013 at 10,0 feet (2013). At 31 lbs and 94 lbs respectively, both sit in a similar weight class — either should pair comfortably with most mid-size SUVs and half-ton trucks, though always confirm your specific tow rating with the motor added.
The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 30 hp, the AB Inflatables A 15 2011 has a 20-hp advantage over the AB-Inflatables Lammina 10 UL 2013's 10-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The AB Inflatables A 15 2011 is rated for 9 passengers, while the AB-Inflatables Lammina 10 UL 2013 caps at 3. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the AB Inflatables A 15 2011 could be the deciding factor.
At this size, power-to-weight ratio matters more than outright horsepower. The AB Inflatables A 15 2011 comes in at 1 lbs per hp versus 10 lbs per hp for the AB-Inflatables Lammina 10 UL 2013. The lower the ratio the more explosive the acceleration — meaningful on a short RIB where bursts of speed, quick planing, and agility in surf or tight waterways define the experience.
The AB-Inflatables Lammina 10 UL 2013 is trailerable — a genuine lifestyle advantage at this size. The AB Inflatables A 15 2011 isn't listed as trailerable, which may mean a permanent berth or mooring is required.
Bottom line: Choose the AB Inflatables A 15 2011 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 9 passengers and at 15,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The AB-Inflatables Lammina 10 UL 2013 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 3 that costs less to run day-to-day.
