Like new owners from russian version of this forum i want to say some words for Ducky 17 and its producers.
I lived on seaside and sailed by dinghy when i was a student
Last year i saw an inflatable catamaran on yacht show and i liked it. After few months of searching and comparing i selected Ducky 17 and ordered it.
I saw it only on pictires and read opinions for Ducky (my russian is like my english :D ). I couldn't touch it, but i sailed on other cat and i knew what to search.
I think that this boat is perfect for peoples like me: i keep it in the corner of the room, i can transport it to any lake or seaside in South East Europe by VW Golf and enjoy sailing in different wheater conditions.
I want to thanks all boys from Ukon LTD and Vitalii Kovalenko in special for a perfect SERVICE.
I didn't know what i really want and i want it in bad Russian, but now i have a good boat with full genaker kit, very good userguide for beginners.
We have our first sailings already and i don't sorry that i took it.
It has a strong and pure construction, good sails and it is easy to assemble it for short time and to transport by any car.
At first I sailed alone and with my son (10 years old) and it is very easy and pleasant. After that i took other three people that weren't so light (sth like me). The boat was stabile and up from water.(the previous cat i sailed waded in water deeper and was heavy to control). It was so easy to rule and it moved faster from lighter wind.
