overview

The Takacat advantage

Takacat-inflatable boat-features.jpg

1  Open Bow Design

Open bow design allows easy access when boarding or exiting inflatable.  Step on and off easily with super stability due to the high pressure air deck.

3  Open Transom

Open Transom design allows for easy draining of any water inside allowing your inflatable to stay dry.

5 Valves

Halkey-Roberts fill valves for fast, reliable inflation and deflation. These valves prevent over pressureisation when left in the sun.

2  Non Skid Air Deck Floor

 The airdeck is Ultra UV stabilised meaning it will withstand the sun and not get chalky over time.

4  Safety Grab Handles

Handles along the tubes provide safety allowing you to be able to sit anywhere.

6 Oars

Oars are provided which also allow for non motorised use.  The catamaran design makes for easy and effortless rowing.

Bonus Inflatable Paddle Board

Having to make a choice between a Tender and a SUP (Stand up Paddle board) is common when storage space is limited. Takacat have come up with a innovative solution: Why not have a convertible boat? The removable floor of the LX Series 340LX - 460LX come with a fin pocket and a separate fin in the standard accessories. Watch the floor of the boat turn into a SUP.  Genius!

specs

"We here at the NZ sailing trust have been using Takacat tenders for both our yachts, Lion New Zealand and Steinlager 2 for the past 2 and a half years. In this time we have had over 3000 students on board each of our tenders and they are dealing with huge usage very well. We love the fact that the Tackacats are forgiving on the yachts topsides and deck paint, they are fantastically light for their size and very economical to run. Durability has not been a problem and the service delivered from the team at Tackacat has been second to none. I have no hesitation in recommending the purchase of a Tackacat product for use as a tender to a larger vessel or for beach and harbour usage. Cheers Greg"
