T460LX

Monster-sized inflatable boat

Takacat T460LX

A Big Ass boat that can take you, your gear, and everything else anywhere

The newest and largest addition to the Takacat LX series is the T460LX. At over 15' long, this boat is an absolute monster! This boat is large enough to hold 8 people and over 1800 pounds or whatever you need. This boat is a great portable and budget friendly option for a day boat or a work boat. Deployable from two bags that will fit on the back seat of any size car. There isn't a 15' boat that packs down smaller than the Takacat T460LX on planet Earth!

Ready when you need it

Portable

No need for the hassle of a trailer or the cost of storage. Pack down the boat into two carry bags and throw it in the trunk, closet, or overhead compartment. The carry bags are vented, so you can even store it wet and it stays fresh.

Easy Entry Bow

The open bow, raised deck and rigid air deck floor makes boarding passengers and cargo effortless from beach, dock, and even a larger vessel. Combined with the shallow draft of the boat, entry and exit from the water is just as simple, even for small children and pets.

Fast-Draining Removable Tube Transom®

The revolutionary removable Tube Transom® allows the deck to drain continuously, so the boat never holds water. Lightweight stainless steel construction on the tube makes the boat 15 lbs lighter than traditional inflatable boats.

Catamaran Performance

The lightweight catamaran style and aerodynamic tapered bow glides over the water for smooth, fast travel. The high pressure air deck with non-skid coating creates a rigid platform to keep passengers and cargo steady on the water.

Dayboat Capable

The Takacat 460LX has XXL diameter tubes at 22"! This means that the 460LX can comfortably sit more passengers and carry more gear.

The added tube diameter also means the boat will be drier in choppy conditions.

Easy to Row

Lightweight PVC rubber material construction and the sleek Tube Transom® keeps the boat lightweight, making it easy to pilot with the included oars. External oar rowlocks and Velcro straps ensure your oars stay on board with you.

Catamaran Safety & Stability

Lightweight PVC rubber material construction and the sleek Tube Transom® keeps the boat lightweight, making it easy to pilot with the included oars. External oar rowlocks and Velcro straps ensure your oars stay on board with you.

Safe for Pet Paws

Takacat boats are made with durable coated textile fabric that is very wear and puncture resistant. Bring along your furry friends without worry of punctures or damage from their claws! 

Durable Single-Seam Construction

The hulls are constructed with a single seam, rather than the double seams on standard inflatables. Less seam work minimizes the likelihood of damage at the weakest spots of the boat. The seams use a chemically bonded gluing system for durability against brittleness.

Sarah Ell

"The conspicuous open bow and stern of the Takacat design allows for flatter, more expansive, and more stable platform than any comparable inflatable we’ve tested." Read the article...

Robert Michelin
2020 - Practical Sailor Magazine

"The whole package feels solid and is blessedly free from the skittishness of the traditional roll up inflatable. [...] I was reluctant to pack the Takacat away and kept her inflated for four days as I went back to do more “testing.” Read the article...

Lift the power and performance of your Takacat’s gas-powered outboard motor with a Permatrim Hydrofoil.

The catamaran design with a single, centralized outboard lends itself to ventilation on higher power outboards. This is more prevalent in the shorter models, but can be brought out on any of the Takacat boats.

We have a remedy to this problem by way of another New Zealand product—Permatrim. This foil plate bolts to the cav plate (the little tongue that sticks out over the propeller) and does a good job of fixing cavitation issues. It also helps get the boat on plane quicker and easier, and reduces splashing from the transom when underway.

Fitment Guide:

  • M3 fits 2.5 HP Outboards (All Modern Makes & Models)
  • M4 fits 4 - 6 HP Outboards (All Modern Makes & Models)
  • M5 fits 8 - 30 HP Outboards (All Modern Makes & Models)
