It fits in your trunk. Really.
No trailer. No marina slip. No mooring fees. The Reverso Air folds to the size of a mountain bike, loads solo (the heaviest piece is 16.8 kg / 37 lbs) and assembles without tools in 3 minutes.
Folded: 145 × 93 × 72 cm
The size of a mountain bike. Fits in an SUV, a wagon, even a sedan in some cases. Confirmed vehicles: BMW X1, VW Tiguan, Volvo XC40, Peugeot 308, Dacia Duster…
Assembly: 3 minutes
No tools, no knots. Just carabiners and a patented tensioning system. You assemble, you sail.
Storage: at home
Garage, utility room, covered balcony. No more marina or mooring fees. Your boat is always ready, always protected.
It lasts longer
Stored indoors, your Reverso avoids UV, humidity and dust. It ages far slower than a boat left outdoors. Your investment preserves naturally.
Designed to enjoy, not to worry.
The Reverso Air was designed by a father and airline pilot. Safety isn't an add-on — it's the starting point of every design decision.
4 watertight compartments
240 liters of trapped air. Each section floats independently. The boat stays on the surface even with two compartments punctured.
Flat cockpit like a paddleboard
The largest cockpit in the industry for this size boat — completely flat, with no protruding daggerboard trunk or mainsheet track. Kids are comfortable, no obstacles.
Raised boom
The boom clears overhead during tacks. No risk of head impact. A critical detail with children on board.
Self-bailing cockpit
The deck is angled at 3° with integrated drains. Shipped water drains on its own in seconds. No bailing needed, no stress.
Capsize? A non-event.
It's rare thanks to the flat hull and high freeboards. But if it happens: step on the daggerboard, the 2.9 kg carbon mast makes righting simple. Even solo.
Dual safety, aviation-style
The Tension Dynamics® system is doubled port and starboard — the same redundancy principle as in aviation. Designed by an airline pilot, not by accident.
Sailors like you, in 44 countries.

Endorsement
"We got the Reverso out in the water, so much fun!! The set up is so epic!"
John John Florence — 3x World Surf Champion, Gunboat 48 owner
It's not just an easy boat. It's a fast boat.
Speed record: 16.2 knots. USA Boat of the Year. Full carbon mast weighing 2.9 kg. Membrane sail, Vendée Globe technology. The Reverso Air is the fastest compact foldable dinghy ever built — and it fits in your trunk.
"Could not be happier!! This boat is FAST, responsive, and just plain FUN."
Born from an airline pilot's frustration.
Antoine Simon, Air France A320 pilot, was tired of the constraints of owning a traditional boat: trailer, marina, maintenance. He imagined a foldable sailboat that fits in a car trunk — and built it in Brittany with a team of quality-obsessed specialists.
Handcrafted in Brittany
Workshop in Plescop, in the heart of the "Sailing Valley". Each boat is built and inspected with the utmost care.
Aviation-grade quality
An airline pilot's obsession for safety and reliability, applied to every detail: vacuum infusion, 316L military-grade stainless steel, structural Dyneema® lines.
Sustainable by design
Recyclable packaging, lines and sandwich core foam made from recycled PET bottles. A boat built for generations, not for obsolescence.
"We build sailboats we are proud of for people we care about."
Your doubts are normal. Here are the answers.
Every question below is a real question from future owners. If yours isn't listed, contact us — we answer everything.
Is a folding hull really rigid?
The patented Tension Dynamics® system generates 600 kg of tension via a mechanical cascade that multiplies force 14 times. SAIL Magazine, after testing in rough conditions, found the hull as rigid as a solid fiberglass monocoque structure. The Reverso is ICNN certified to ISO 12215, 12217 and 11812 standards.
How many people can sail on board?
The Reverso Air is certified for a maximum load of 180 kg (397 lbs) — that's 2 people. It's a compact 3.40 m dinghy, not a cruising sailboat. This compactness is precisely what makes it so easy to transport and so fast on the water.
I haven't sailed in 20 years — is this for me?
Sailors from 7 to 80+ years old use the Reverso. The self-bailing cockpit, natural stability and raised boom make getting back into sailing intuitive. A 48-page full-color printed manual is included. And assembly requires no tools. You'll know how to set up a Reverso.
Why this price for a dinghy?
The full carbon mast is standard (not an option). The sail uses Vendée Globe membrane technology. Construction is vacuum-infused in Brittany with premium materials. And most importantly: no marina fees, no trailer, no mooring, no heavy maintenance. The total cost of ownership is the lowest in the category. International 2-year warranty.
Will it fit in my car?
Folded, the Reverso measures 145 × 93 × 72 cm (57" × 37" × 28"). Confirmed by owners: BMW X1/X3/X5, VW Tiguan, Porsche Macan, Volvo XC40/XC70/XC90, Audi Q5, Peugeot 308, Dacia Duster, and many more SUVs, wagons and sedans. If it doesn't fit, a 4-bike hitch rack platform is the solution.
