The TAKACAT CALI 260LX is an ultra-light, three-person open-design inflatable boat engineered for performance, portability, and stability. Designed to pack down compactly into two storage bags, it’s ideal for boaters who value easy transport and quick setup without sacrificing capability on the water.
Its innovative thermo welded 19" twin-tube, high-pressure raised floor catamaran design delivers exceptional stability while allowing the boat to glide effortlessly onto shore—even through surf—making beach landings simple and controlled.
The CALI upgrade replaces the standard braided nylon safety line with high-strength reflective paracord, creating a versatile system that integrates a tow bridle, davit lift lines, and a painter/pull handle for improved functionality and safety.
A padded fiberglass bow stability bar provides secure foot support when standing and doubles as a convenient pull-up grip for boarding from the water. With a quick adjustment, the bar can also be lowered into the water to function as a ladder rung, making re-boarding easier when swimming.
Enhanced transom design improve structural strength, eliminate alignment issues, and increase the transom angle to reduce spray while improving trim control to keep the bow down. These improvements also simplify and speed up assembly. Paired with ePropulsion eLite electric outboard motor.
At Big Country Marine, our marine design expertise has taken the Takacat platform from a great boat to a best-in-class inflatable tender. The TAKACAT CALI 260LX is built for those who demand superior function, thoughtful design, and reliable performance—both on the water and at the shoreline.
