THE AQUABUG
*The Aquabug is a trihedral hull planing craft fitted with an inner moulding incorporating a cockpit wich seats three adults and a large stowage space aft.
*Usally speed and economy do not come in the same package, but the unique hull formation designed by the world famous naval architects "Uffa Fox ltd" enables the aquabug effortlessly plane with very little engine power, ensuring that high speed can be enjoyed with low fuel consumption, on average less than 4litres per hour.
*When fitted with just a 10hp outboard the aquabug's speed is outstanding at over 22knots with one adult on board, and 19knots with 2 adults.
*A flared bow, spray rails and fore deck combined with a high gunwale creates a dry boat at high and low speed, so theres no need for a wet suit!
*The trihedral hull ensures optimum stability making it a safe boat for all the family to use.
*The Aquabug has been assessed and compliant with the requirements of the european recreational craft directive and has been assigned category 'C'
