SAILING
When the bows throw up spray, the sails firmly set, filled and taut, enjoyment is at its peak. Moving leisurely or brisk, in any event, there is a taste of adventure with it.
When other boats are barred because they depend on their engine, one takes great pleasure out of the fact, that being propelled by the wind is environmentally friendly and costs nothing.
HAPPY CAT LIGHT - the comfortable and absolute safe catamaran for leisure.
The catamaran so well proven over decades, well tempered and offering what Hobby sailors want, including a price that is unbeatable.
It is the fastest of all the GRABNER sailing craft, yet it retains the attributes of being „family-friendly” and versatile.
It’s hard to believe, that this boat can fit into 3 pack-bags for easy stowage at home, or transport by car, rail, or plane. The HAPPY CAT LIGHT always makes a good travel companion!
The HAPPY CAT LIGHT offers a measure of sailing-performance that fascinate beginner and experienced sailor alike. So does its safety and the high resistance against capsize.
If there is a dead calm, one does not have to wait ashore for the next puff of wind, but use the roomy boat as a platform for sunbathing or swimming.
Convenient propulsion comes from an electricor fuel driven outboard engine.
An abundance of accessories renders the HAPPY CAT LIGHT furnished with everything one could think of to equip the boat of ones dreams.
HAPPY CAT RACING
HAPPY CAT RACING - with a 20% larger hi-tech racing sail, for maximum performance.
The foot of the modern Racing mainsail is appointed aslope downwards. It´s varying height settings allow for ample headroom and adjustment to suit.
The „flagship“ HAPY CAT RACING has everything that discerning sailing enthusiasts expect from a catamaran for easy and convenient travel.
The introduction of this model meets the often expressed call for even more performance, yet at unchanged weight- packing- and assembly specification and undiminished handling properties.
Floats, trampoline and steering are the same as those of the HAPPY CAT LIGHT.
The entire rigging though is reinforced and taller, to cover additional functions, such as the extra force of energy generated by the increased sail area.
TRIMARAN sailing-rig ADVENTURE and SPEED hitherto applied has been developed further.
The ADVENTURE trimaran sail rig fits all models of the ADVENTURE series: ADVENTURE Eco, ADVENTURE SL, SPEED - with no requirement for any additional bonded brackets.
TRIMARAN sailing-rigs for HOLIDAY, EXPLORER, RIVERSTAR, DISCOVERY - Suitably dimensioned jib and mainsail ad up to a total of 4m2 sail area, allowing remarkable sailing speeds.
Beamy outriggers provide adequate protecion against capsize for even narrow boats.
RANGER + HOBBY are particularly well adapted for sailing, in as far as most owners
would like to sail them too.
Their stability against capsize due to shape, wide beam and the length of the underside-corrugations
render them almost predestined for sailing.
DRIVE SAILS for GRABNER Boats: HOLIDAY, EXPLORER, RIVERSTAR, DISCOVERY
Introduced on popular demand, there is now a simple new drive sail available in parallel to the tried and tested trimaran sails that have been around for years.
Rapid and and easy to fit, it takes only a few minutes to rig each of the 4 different boat models. It is a most suitable sail for running downwind, reaching and free windward sailing.
The FUN BOARD is truly something very versatile to use and have fun with:
- as a surf board for riding the waves
- as a raft for river exploration
- as a secure bathing island
- as lilo and air-mattres
- as an exiting mini sail-board
The FUN BOARD is made from original boat-skin and has the same operating pressure as all GRABNER boats have.
That renders it as rigid as a solid-hull surf board,with the difference though, flat-pack small.
The standard supply includes all brackets needed to rig the sail kit.
