Easy re-tubing: Unlike conventional ribs or inflatable boats Takacats can be re-tubed simply and cost effectively due to our revolutionary Tube Transom® and our fully removable high-pressure air deck floor system.

REVOLUTIONARY TUBE-TRANSOM DESIGN®

Takacats innovative new fully removable open Tube-Transom design® enables the inflatable to be deflated, rolled up smaller, easier and lighter than other traditional inflatable boats. These are big advantages when it comes to transporting or storing your Takacat.

The Takacats are perfect for the caravan, RV motorhome, or the tender market. Having the removable transom means they are less bulky and weigh approx. 7kg lighter when packed away.

This fully open transom design has no ability to hold water on board, a great advantage when being towed or being used in various conditions.

DAVIT MOUNTING

1/5

We are often asked if Takacats can be used as a tender with a davit lifting system. The answer is absolutely. In fact Takacats are the perfect onboard tender due to their open transom design which means they don't hold any water onboard so stay nice and light as any rain drains right off.

BONUS INFLATABLE SUP FIN

The Takacat LX Series now come with a new feature - the option to turn your removeable floor of your Takacat into a Stand Up Paddleboard (SUP).

The removable floor of the LX Series 340LX - 460LX models all come with a fin pocket and a separate fin in the standard accessories - check out the photos below:
