The new generation of rigid inflatable catamarans

The unique technologies used in inflatable boats, RIBs and catamarans come together in our exciting new Takacat Explorer series. 

Maximum - Safety, stability, speed, landing capabilities, versatility and fun!

Minimum - Weight, hp, draft, maintenance and hassle


The Takacat Explorer makes for a superb rigid inflatable catamaran tender, day boat or safety and support craft. Its roomy flat floor and front deck provide a fantastic platform to be on while you are out playing, working or exploring our beautiful harbours, estuaries, lagoons, coastline, lakes and rivers.



Unique in design


The Takacat Explorer series enjoys great all-round performance from airlift, rigidity and a shallow draft. Heavy-duty under-tube protection (instead of the additional under-tubes of the Freedom series) allows for shallow water operations and you can land almost anywhere. Under power a fantastic blend of hydro-dynamic and aero-dynamic influences allow the boat to ride on a soft cushion of air above the water rather than pounding through it.





"The level of stability and performance makes it a real winner"
Trade-A-Boat, January 2011 boat review

The fibreglass hull design provides a hassle-free rigid floor and deck that eliminates much of the wear and tear associated with removable floor boards and it is ideal as an open boat or fully consoled set-up. Furthermore, replacement tubes can be ordered and refitted if required making your investment last for many years.

Enjoy the ease of use, space, stability, speed and soft ride of this amazing catamaran while using less hp and fuel compared to a similar sized mono hull RIB.



Versatile & fun


With
massive floor and front deck space the Takacat Explorer series provides more usable space in comparison to any other inflatable in their size range.

A proven performer in multiple applications such as diving, fishing, camping, working, hunting, tubing and skiing. The Takacat Explorer also makes for a fantastic safety and support boat for all types of water sports. A great choice for the beginner boatie through to the advanced. 




Launching made easy

The Takacat Explorer is light-weight and durable so you can launch from many difficult locations where conventional boat launching can be dangerous or just impossible. Launching and retrieval has never been easier with the rigid hull and can easily be mastered by one person only.

The raised floor and quick drain transom eliminate the chance of being swamped. The inflatable catamaran design with its large inflatable tube construction and ability to hold no water also makes capsizing very difficult.In this context it's worth noting that nearly all boating fatalities occuring in boats under 6m involve swamping and capsizing.
