longtailcat functional design details.wmv

This four minute video fully describes the design from a functional point of view with photo's, text and video. The one of a kind boat Longtailcat is a boat that combines powerboating and sailboating without compromising either. It is used for excursions into the Thai Jungle on rivers, lakes and ocean while fishing, cooking and sleeping aboard. The hulls, deck, engine and mast are detachable to allow access to remote areas. It is an eighteen feet by eight feet long tail catamaran that one can launch anywhere a pickup can be driven to.
