|
A new hull for the catamaran, made in injected plastic. The most up to date computer aided tools where used for the design of the 3 dimensional model and the manufacturing of the mould.
It is even much stronger than the old one. The lower part of the hull keeps the same profile which gave to this boat its extraordinary sailing properties, even in the worst-case conditions
of wind, rain or waves. Its catamaran shape gives the boat a good balance and makes it very easy to use.
On the upper part of the hull, 6 ultra bright white leds have been implemented at the front and still 2 ultra bright red leds at the back for a perfect seeing of the boat's position
during the day as well as night.
The top cover has a funnel shape allowing to load even more baits and the central bait hopper in stainless steel is now split in 2 independent containers, each with its own control
potentiometer for gradual opening and closing. Thus you can precisely control your bait deposit whatever type of bait you use.
A specific housing for the fishfinder probe in incorporated in the hull that makes the fishfinder very easy to install or remove.
Several versions are available from the standard model with a simple equipment to deluxe models with more sofisticated features and a 7 ways Graupner remote controller.

|
Designed for robustness and easy maintenance, this boat is made to carry and deposit baits and fishing line at long distances with high degrees of precision.
Its 2 air-cooled motors located one on each side of the hull provide enough power to propel the boat at 3 miles/hour fully loaded. The boat drives like a tank, each motor being independently controlled for forward and backward direction. Thus the boat has the ability to turn on itself and be precisely controlled in tricky situations, like under a low tree.
Its stainless bait hopper is opened and closed gradually with a potentiometer on the remote control handset. Thus you can precisely control your bait deposit whatever type of bait you use.
Its exclusive line dropper allows you to safely transport your fishing line wherever you want. A small magnet will help maintain your low line out of water during the trip.
When the top cover is in place the boat is waterproof.
When the top cover is removed, the boat internal parts are easily accessible, giving access to the batteries, motors, electronic devices, servomotor, fuses, quartz …etc.
Everything has been designed so that maintenance is easy and all internal parts can be removed and replaced simply.
The shield is made with strong plastic allowing the boat to face many severe conditions. A cover against algae and immersed obstacles protects the two propellers.
A single colour is available: camouflage.

The new collection |

|
3 line catamaran – new collection |
 |
|
Position light |
|
6 ultra bright white LED at the front and 2 other red LED at the rear help to drive the boat by signalling its position, even in day time.
The LED has a relatively narrow angle of emission. Thus when the lights are visible on both side you know the boats precise direction. This allows you to align the boat between your position and your destination. When it's red it moves away from you, when it's white the boat moves towards you. |
|
|
Baiting |
 |
The stainless steel bait container is located in the middle of the boat, conferring a very high stability even at full load.
Its opening mechanism is very progressive thanks to the potentiometer on the remote control, allowing to spray the baits around the fishing zone.
It can be closed as well, thus you can control the amount of your deposit.
The bait hopper is split in 2 containers and for Deluxe models each has an independent control.
|
 |
It can contain up to 5 kg of bait, seed boilies. The opening servomotor can resist to loads up to 5 kg.
The container can carry any kind of baits even the most fragile. When in full opening position the flaps are verticals to ensure even your sticky baits will drop off. |
|
|
Internal view |
|
- The shield is made with shockproof plastic (ABS),
- Ventilated motors.
- A cover protects the propellers from algae.
- A waterproof housing protects electronic components.
- When the top cover is in place the boat is waterproof.
- When the top cover is removed, the boats internal parts are easily accessible for maintenance (batteries, motors, servomotor, fuses, quartz ...).
- The electronic components are located on the board at the rear of the boat. All electrical wires are grouped in a single cluster. The batteries are connected to the cluster by specific connectors to ease placing and removing of batteries and preventing polarity inversion.
- Should a problem occur you might be able to put your own hand on the defective parts, with out the necessity to send the whole item to a specialist. Most of the time a simple message to us will allow identifying the problem and taking appropriate action.
- This may save you time and money on after sale and avoid the risk of loss or damage during transport.
- Looking inside the boat and seeing how it is assembled will make you realize that it is made to last.

|
Batteries |
|
The boat is equipped with two main batteries of 6V/10Ah giving 120 minutes of operating range. |
|
A back up battery of 6V/4Ah is also embedded in the Delux model with battery back up to take over the boat’s power supply when the main battery charge is too low.
The battery switch is located on the remote control hand set giving 10 more minutes of operation. |
|
|

Setting of the fishing line |
|
At the rear of the boat, is located a small magnet to retain the fishhook to drop in the water and stuck to something when the boat moves.
You drop your line where you want; your low fishing line settings are protected during travel, even the most fragile.
|
|
To hook the fishing line on the boat:
1) Lift up the white flexible stick.
2) Pass a ring behind the stick (trick : add a ring to your low line).
3) Close the system by putting the rubber joint on top of the whole thing. After that, you have 2 solutions depending the type of your low line.
- Put the low line setting in the bait container, passing it under the boat.
- Put the fishhook on the small magnet. .
4. Using the switch on the remote control, the flexible stick goes down, dropping the line.
5. For the three lines option, install the 2 tubes on the sides and proceed as above.
With the three lines option, the boat can draw three lines at a time and drop them independently with three separate switches on the remote control.
