Inflatable Platform to Join 2 SUPs into Catamaran.

Convert 2 paddle boards into an electric catamaran.

Transform Your Paddle Boards into a Sleek Catamaran with Our Inflatable Platform!

Elevate your water adventures by converting two SUP paddle boards into a powerful, electric catamaran. Our upgraded inflatable drop-stitch platform replaces the old aluminum frame, offering quicker assembly and disassembly without sacrificing functionality.

Perfect for leisurely cruising or fishing, this inflatable platform is designed to seamlessly join two paddle boards, creating a stable, catamaran-style vessel. It's incredibly easy to inflate, install, and deflate, and comes equipped with a folding plywood transom to accommodate an electric trolling motor.

Key Features:

  • Versatile Seating: The platform includes two built-in back supports, but for those who prefer a custom setup, you can easily remove them and use your favorite beach chairs instead.
  • Stability & Capacity: Ideal for two people, yet capable of supporting up to four, thanks to the impressive buoyancy of the combined paddle boards and platform. Once fully assembled, it’s nearly impossible to flip over and extremely rigid.
  • Secure Attachment: The platform attaches to the paddle boards using provided tie-down straps, which run under the hulls and secure to D-rings on the platform. A foam layer on the bottom ensures a non-slip experience.
  • Enhanced Performance: For added rigidity, inflate the paddle boards to 60-80%, secure the tie-downs, and then finish inflating. This minimizes any movement, ensuring smooth performance even over waves.
  • Customization Options: Install an electric trolling motor (up to 1HP) on the motor mount, and secure a cooler or battery in the middle using the provided tie-downs or bungee cords.
  • Detachable back rests: Sit back and unwind with the included backrests, or easily remove them and secure your own beach chair using the optional lashing tie-downs, which thread through side grommets for added convenience.

Whether you're seeking a relaxing cruise or a sturdy fishing platform, this inflatable platform transforms your paddle boards into the ultimate catamaran experience.

Assembly Instructions:

1. Inflate Components: Begin by inflating both SUPs and the platform to the recommended pressure.

2. Position the Platform: Place the platform over the paddle boards, ensuring it is centered.

3. Secure with Straps: Run the four provided straps under the hulls of the SUPs and secure them to the four lashing tie-down locks on the platform. Pull the straps tightly to ensure the platform is firmly attached to the top of the paddle boards. Double-check that the locks are fully engaged.

4. Adjust Motor Mount: Unfold the motor mount and adjust the lashing tie-down to ensure it is in a vertical position. The shaft of the trolling motor should rest on the outer edge of the platform, with the motor propeller positioned clear of the inflatable SUP surfaces.

5. Safety Check: Always wear Personal Flotation Devices (PFDs) while using the platform.

6. Adjust Back Rest: If needed, you can increase the recline angle of the backrest by releasing some air. The backrest doesn't need to be as firm as the platform and can be softer for added comfort.

Quick Tip: For optimal rigidity:

  • Option 1: Install the platform on top of the SUPs while they are slightly under-inflated. Once the platform is secured, fully inflate the SUPs. The boards will expand, creating a highly rigid structure.
  • Option 2: Alternatively, install the slightly under-inflated platform on fully inflated SUPs, secure the straps, and then add more air to the platform. This will allow the platform to expand further, enhancing rigidity.

IMPORTANT: Please email with questions before ordering, is something is unclear.

Excellent. I used the kit with two solid Bic Wing 12.5 paddle boards along with the 1 HP electric motor boatstogo recommended and it works well. It’s a ton of fun for us in our 50’s

Would be nice to find a way to attach the kit without the straps under the board. Wondering if I could epoxy fasteners to the top of the board?

Well built, easy to install,quality materials. I mounted a Newport Vessels 55# thrust 24" shaft (designed for Kayaks) trolling motor, which I found on Amazon for $169. With the height of my beach chairs I think a 30-36" shaft would have also worked just fine. I'm using a 138 a/h lithium lifepo4 battery. Motor and battery add aprx 65 lbs weight. Motor is mounted on front frame, battery on rear frame to evenly distribute the weight. Click on link for photo. https://photos.app.goo.gl/HqepGuMwu3YGj4d16
