ATTENTION TO DETAIL
Our engineer Simone wanted to design an inflatable boat totally adapted to carp fishing, leaving no stone unturned!
So he drew up a complete and rigorous set of specifications, with the following 4 design priorities:
- STABILITY
- HABITABILITY
- PRACTICALITY
- RESISTANCE
A BOAT CONCEIVED, DESIGNED AND TESTED IN FRANCE!
Collaboration with our colleagues at the French design center ITIWIT* has enabled us to benefit from unrivalled expertise in order to guarantee the highest manufacturing quality.
High standards and professionalism have been the cornerstones of our collaborative work. Numerous engineers have accompanied us to the ITIWIT laboratories to design our VENTUS range of boats.
*The ITIWIT brand (DECATHLON) specializes in the design of inflatable kayaks and paddles.
RESISTANCE and PRACTICALITY
- A LOT OF REINFORCEMENTS
To guarantee excellent strength, we have equipped each Ventus with reinforcements around and under the tubes: sail with confidence!
We have also reinforced the transom to protect it from sounder supports.
- TIME-SAVING
Don't remove the Ventus' inflatable floor, and save precious time when inflating/deflating.
- INNOVATIVE ACCESSORIES
How do you optimize the practicality of a tire?
By innovating with accessories...
OUR INNOVATIONS
After extensive testing, we've validated 2 useful and clever innovations.
- FIXING A LANDLOCK
Everyone has their own technique for placing a landing net in an inflatable, but the solution is never ideal. Now it is! Save time, increase efficiency and improve your living space with our system.
- BAKKAN FIXING
Optimize your space by adding bakkans to your tubes. We offer a range of sizes, so it's up to you to find the configuration best suited to your needs.
OPTIMIZATION OF USABLE VOLUME
Bakkans are particularly useful storage bags.
They allow you to remove buckets to increase space, and offer great modularity to your space.
Everyone will identify the solution best suited to their fishing. Nevertheless, here is an example of an effective configuration:
- a large bakkan for your bait
- a medium one for your preparations (flours, soluble sticks, dips...)
- a small one for accessories (sinkers, needles, bait stops, files, fixtures...)
STABILITY
- HIGH PRESSURE INFLATABLE FLOOR
The Ventus guarantees incredible stability thanks to its thick, hard floor. It also has the advantage of being silent when walked on. The material used (Drop Stitch) is made up of two PVC membranes between which numerous polyester threads are woven.
- EXTREME WIDTH
The large width contributes to the great stability of every Ventus. It also offers impressive storage volume.
HABITABILITY
We've optimized the Ventus' habitability thanks to 2 levers:
1/ The extreme width, which considerably increases internal usable volume.
2/ The bakkan and landing net attachments, which offer significant and clever space savings.
- THE CONSEQUENCE? THE CONSEQUENCE?
A Ventus smaller than the size of your current inflatable boat will probably be suitable.
- THE ADVANTAGES?
A smaller model is LIGHTER, more COMPACT and above all more ECONOMICAL...
LIGHTNESS
We've really optimized the weight of the Ventus for ease of transport and handling. Here are the weights of the different models:
- Ventus 180 : 21 kg
- Ventus 230 : 31 kg
- Ventus 270 : 37 kg
- Ventus 320 : 43 kg
The weights shown take into account: boat + inflatable floor + seat + 2 oars.
OUR RECOMMENDATIONS: WHICH SIZE TO CHOOSE? PART 1
- VENTUS 180
They all said "WAHOU" after testing it! Enough to reconcile even the most skeptical of us with small-format tires... 180 cm, but already disconcertingly roomy, practical and stable!
- VENTUS 230
The most versatile! Short or long sessions, lake or river, alone or accompanied: it can do it all. Without a doubt, our team's favorite. Try it and you'll love it!
OUR RECOMMENDATIONS: WHICH SIZE TO CHOOSE? PART 2
- VENTUS 270
The big brother of the Ventus 230 is surprisingly spacious. Are you going away for long sessions? Do you need to transport a (very) large quantity of equipment? This model will meet all your needs!
- VENTUS 320 :
Fishing directly from the boat becomes a real pleasure. Carp or predators? You decide, the Ventus 320 will adapt!
