Have you ever dreamt about sails? Have you looked at a sailboat gliding along the horizon in sincere raptures? Surely there was longing for being in this fairy tale but thoughts that it is difficult, expensive, unrealistic on the whole have broken the dream at the start! Fortunately, times are changing, new approaches and innovative solutions are coming into reality, more and more stereotypes are left in the past. Inflatable demountable catamarans, that were arising more than 30 years ago, with the appearance of new materials and technologies, came in the new progress phase and have started to press classical sailing vessels already. So, what is this invention and what's it for?! Let’s sort it out together.
The idea of a demountable catamaran was suggested by people, who lived far from “big” water and had no possibility to own a real yacht, but at the same time they took a great interest in sails and did not want to forget their dream. There was not so easy to invent a demountable yacht. The epoch of experiments has started: sailing kayaks, demountable centerboarders, trimarans, polymarans and finally catamarans. Among all types of vessels the catamarans turned out as most promising for achievement of defined goals. Just in its constructions there was succeeded in combining the same characters as an unsurpassed transportability, minimum time of the assembly, small weight, reliability, seaworthiness, load-carrying ability, holding capacity and many others. Eventually, after many years of an improvement, at the end of the nineties, the first prototypes of Ducky catamarans have come into the world. Primordially the professional approach to projecting and production with an application of cutting-edge technologies and materials has promoted the appearance of new high-technology solutions, which enabled the implementation of new ideas in the constructions of Ducky catamarans. Complexity and labour-intensity of production of particular details and connection joints guarantee comfort and convenience when the following exploitation. Intuitively understandable, quick assembly in combination with durability and reliability of constructions as before is the main idea of making Ducky. At present the family of Ducky catamarans meets absolutely different customers’ needs. Ducky 13 will be perfect for training of beginners-yachtsmen including children, and Ducky 19 will be indispensable in an extreme cruise and experienced racer will not be bored on it.
Unusual transportability of Ducky catamarans opens the new horizons for users. Ducky catamarans disassembled and packed in compact and light bags can be transported by any kind of vehicle, as well as by a small automobile or an airplane! Nowadays there are cleared the new ways for travelling-fanciers and most remote places of the planet became accessible. This sailboat is indispensable for those who prefer family or classical beach rest too. Comfortable spacious covering and gauzes of the catamarans are excellent places for a sun bath. Thrill-seekers and fans of top speed will find a pastime for themselves also: before the fresh wind, under gennaker the catamarans come into the routine of gliding and easily reach a speed of 20 knots, that is cannot be achieved by the majority of modern yachts! There is no need for carrying your trailer everywhere with you or spending money on moorage in a yacht club, this may be regarded as additional bonus. By the way, what about the absence of a suitable yacht club near at all, should you give up the own dream?
Advantages of Ducky catamarans are visible to unaided eye: they are more low-priced than catamarans with rigid hull, inflatable floats allow probable contacts with obstacles or hindrances on the water or on shore, Ducky catamarans do not require a special trailer for transportation, they are not restricted in movement, 1,5-2 times as light, at the same time are much more lifting. In a disassembled state they may be stored wherever there is convenient and occupy a minimum of room. Final choice is up to you: to stay on shore and continue to dream or make your dreams come true!
