Is there a specialized air stem for inflating thru the Boston Valve that I will need to purchase?
Any photos out there?

Not really, most of the dual action pumps have a hose that fits. It does not attach like a bike pump.
I just used my air compressor the first time I filled my tube. Also, I typically just blow it up with my lungs at the lake to top it off.

I hope this helps.

Yes some tubes need a adapter piece in order to fill your tube and don't try and top off your tube your self. Buy pump!!

SP Dan ,
The Tube you have will come with a Adapter for the inflatable seat / back rest which you will need (its a piece of clear tube) that will attach to the adapter on your dual action pump .. for inflating the tube just find the correct size Adapter that fits the Valve . should be no issues
