True Kit
Payload per kilogram
The brand
True Kit is the other serious inflatable-catamaran option for Australian buyers and competes with Takacat head-on. The headline numbers are weight: a 2.5 m Navigator at roughly 24 kg and a 3 m at roughly 31 kg are figures a conventional RIB simply cannot match at those lengths.
Actively sold into the Australian market.
Our take
Cross-shop directly against Takacat. The decision usually comes down to layout preference and which dealer you can reach.
