It is designed for individual sailors who like speed and performance or families seeking a compact and safe boat to have fun with. Ideal as a yacht accessory.
Due to the size and design of the M310, with floats pre-fixed to the main frame with a trampoline, the M310 Sport can be set up in only 15-20 minutes. At just 32.5kg, portability and performance are both optimized.

FRAME & DECK
The MiniCat 310 frame, to which the floats attach, is produced from light-weight aluminium and the frame parts are powder coated. The trampoline is produced from high strength woven plastic fabric. The frame is attached to the floats by means of welded-on ‘flags’, which are inserted into the pockets on the floats. The design is such that these are pre-fixed to the main frame with trampoline so the assembly time is shortened to the minimum.
The central tube is attached to the underside of the frame and the rudder mechanism is housed at the rear of the tube. At the front of the tube is the anchor-point for the mast line and jib.
FLOATS
The MiniCat is equipped with two inflatable floats 3.15 m length and 39 cm diameter. The floats are made of reinforced Heytex 5509, highly resistant to abrasion and very hard wearing. This material is produced in Germany and production technology was adopted from the production of ‘white-water’ rafts. The floats are single-chamber with a combined load capacity of 240 kg.
KEEL FIN
To fully enjoy your sailing, you must confidently control your boat. It is imperative to minimize ‘side-sail’, especially when sailing against the wind. To achieve this keel fins were designed to attach under each float. Their design and shape give excellent performance yet still allows the boat to be sailed in very shallow water without the risk of damage.
MAST
The mast consists of three sections of equal length, slotted together. The length of the assembled mast is 3.8 m. The mast is from alloy tubing (AIMg 0.7 Si) powder coated grey and black and has a groove for the sail attachment. This construction ensures high rigidity and strength for ultimate safety, performance and enjoyment.
SAIL
The MiniCat is equipped with a main sail and jib. The total area of the sails is 5.15 sqm (main sail 3.75 sqm, jib 1.40 sqm). The material ‘Dimension Polyant’ is used with a surface density of 175 g/m. The main sail is ‘all-spire’ construction, i.e. without a boom. There are 6 flat spires in the sail. MiniCat Sport is equipped with a ‘jib furler’. The main sail has a window to ensure better visibility while sailing.
RUDDER
The aluminium rudder on the MiniCat is attached to the central tube. The design of the rudder allows it to be raised at a 90-degree angle, so at the shore or in very shallow water there is no danger of damage. The rudder can be locked in both positions, raised or lowered.
The tiller arm is jointed allowing full 360-degree movement.
FITTINGS
Fittings from the companies Ronstan, Seasure, Clamcleat and Suchomel are used throughout the MiniCat.
