AIRE

DID YOU KNOW AIRE is actually an acronym? It stands for…

- Argonaut
- Inflatable
- Research &
- Engineering

Yep, there’s a little more behind the name. Since 1989, we’ve been putting that research and engineering to work; building boats designed to keep you floating on AIRE.

Gauley Fest is just a week away! Who’s going?!

We’re bummed we won’t be there for the party this year, but hopefully y’all are still able to get out on the river, soak up the good times, and float on AIRE all weekend long.

Happy National Dog Day to the best members of the river family. 🐾

Because every good river trip is better with a four-legged co-pilot. From chasing sticks on the shore to riding along for the adventure, our dogs are part of what makes time on the river so special.

Here’s to the pups who never miss an adventure.
