The present invention relates to inflatable boat structures having outboard motors. A boat includes a U-shaped body in plan view with an open contour of inflatable sides and a nose part, and an inflatable bottom which is attached to the body and which is divided into at least three longitudinal segments. A longitudinal tunnel is configured in the middle segment of the bottom. In a first embodiment, an internal surface of the longitudinal tunnel of the boat has a substantially arcuate form, and the tunnel includes an additional section which is wedge-shaped in vertical cross section with an angle of inclination with respect to the plane of the water surface. In a second embodiment, the longitudinal tunnel of the boat includes a section which is wedge-shaped in vertical cross section. The stern end of the bottom which is joined to the tunnel is designed in an inclined manner and forms an angle with respect to the plane of the water surface. In a third embodiment, at least two water-water channels of variable depths are configured in the inflatable bottom of the boat along the extension of the longitudinal tunnel. High efficiency is attained when the boat is used at shallow and super-shallow depths at various speeds.
