The MiniCat 420 frame, to which the floats attach is produced from a light-weight aluminium and the frame parts are powder coated. The trampoline is produced from high strength woven plastic fabric. The frame is attached to the floats by means of welded-on ‘flags‘, which are inserted into the pockets on the floats
MINICAT EASY
MAST
The mast consists of three sections of equal length, slotted together. The length of the assembled mast is 5.05 m. The mast is from alloy tubing and has a groove for the sail attachment. This construction ensures high rigidity and strength for ultimate safety, performance and enjoyment. Masts on all models are black powder coated.
FLOATS The MiniCat 420 is equipped with two inflatable floats 4.2m length and 45cm diameter. The floats are made of reinforced HEY-TEX, highly resistant to abrasion and very hard wearing. This material and production technology was adopted from the production of ‘white-water‘ rafts. The floats are single-chamber with a combined load capacity of 530 kg.
KEEL FINS To fully enjoy your sailing you must confidently control your boat. It is imperative to minimize ‘side-sail‘, especially when sailing against the wind. To achieve this keel fins were designed to attach under each float. Their design and shape gives excellent performance yet still allows the boat to be sailed in very shallow water without the risk of damage.
SAILS The MiniCat 420 is equipped with a main sail and jib. The total area of the sails is 9.7 sqm (main sail 6.5 sqm, jib 3.2 sqm). The material ‘Dimension Polyant‘ is used with a surface density of 175 - 240 g/m. Both the main sail and the jib have transparent windows to ensure better visibility and security while sailing.
RUDDER
MiniCat 420 is fitted with one rudder in the craft centerline, attached to the frame. The automatic cleat will unlock the rudder rope in case the boat runs aground, thus protecting it from damage. The design of the rudder allows it to be raised at a 90 degree angle, so at the shore or in very shallow water there is no danger of damage. The rudder can be locked in both positions, raised or lowered. The tiller arm is jointed allowing full 360 degree movement.
FITTINGS
Fittings from the companies Ronstan, Seasure, Clamcleat and Suchomel are used throughout the MiniCat. All spare parts and accessories are available. Ask for the Parts and Accessories Catalogue.

The transparent polyester seats are designed for comfortable sailing. Attached to the floats by straps these are secured with alloy tubes maintaining the position of the floats and the deck. The fabric trampoline sections fill the frame and are tightly secured by a threaded line. As the trampoline is taut and the frame is tight there is no need for any additional fixings. The central tube is attached to the underside of the frame and the rudder mechanism is housed at the rear of the tube. At the front of the tube is the anchor-point for the mast line and jib.

Y T I L I T AT A S VERMINIC OF Fantastic addition for large yachts Understandably MiniCat is a firm favourite of weekend sailors on coasts and inland waters around the world. But due to the great portability and easy storage MiniCat has also become very popular with yacht, motor-cruiser and Super-Yacht owners. A great addition to the ‘toys’ stowed below decks MiniCat even has an optional engine mount (Engine support) enabling it to be used as a tender without the mast. Camping and sailing – the perfect weekend! Many MiniCat owners are also campervan and caravan owners, weekend adventurers who love the simple assembly and easy storage. The opportunity to sail and enjoy the water both on the coast or a lake without the worry of trailers and storage adds new and fun possibilities to your travels. Famous friends Having first encountered a MiniCat in Bora-Bora during her record-breaking world circumnavigation, famous young sailor Laura Dekker soon became a MiniCat owner and has publicly praised the incredible performance achievable from an inflatable boat. Laura keeps her MiniCat stowed and ready for fun on her ketch ‘Guppy’.

“MiniCat sails really well and it is very fast. It is easy to assemble and the boat is very well thought out so you do not need much storage space if you are not living near to the sea. It can be carried along in one or two bags. Usually advertisements are very much exaggerated but this one really says it like it is. I have seen and sailed numerous inflatable catamarans and this one really stands above them all.“ ULTRA LIGHT CATAMARAN
