Happy Cat inflatable catamarans are lightweight, fast, versatile and extremely portable. There are other portable sailboats on the market, but none perform as well as the Happy Cat line of sailboats. They are faster, boat-for-boat, than any other portable sailboat on the market and the Hurricane Carbon has seen speeds greater than 20 knots!
Happy Cat inflatable catamarans are dynamic on the water, and can handle anything from high speed races, to all-day family fun. The ultimate open water journey. Happy Cat boats are constructed from the highest quality materials like eco-friendly rubber hulls instead of plastic, and anodized aluminum frames and mast. The innovative materials and attention to detail will ensure your Happy Cat is built to outlast many adventures for many years to come.
Innovative features that make Happy Cat one of the finest inflatable boat companies in the world.
Designed with performance in mind, the Happy Cat’s inverted bows pierce through waves with little resistance while also allowing for maximum waterline length. The rotating mast allows you to amp up the power like any good high-performance beach cat. The innovative performance sailing designs ensure that when you’re at the helm of a Happy Cat, you’re in for a one-of-a-kind sailing experience.
Find the right Happy Cat inflatable catamaran for your next adventure.
The Happy Cat inflatable sailboats are well suited for multiple uses, such as family day sailing, solo sailing and racing. Each one of these boats can do it all, but some are better suited for different activities. Learn more below to find out which boat suits your needs best.
Solo
For those who like to sail solo.
Family-Fun
Simple controls and forgiving stability
Race
Race in open or handicapped classes
Solo Sailing
Adventures
Sailing solo on a beach cat can be tricky, as you typically need enough weight to counter the winds. The Neo is the perfect portable replacement for a high performance sailing dinghy with similar handling characteristics. This is our go-to recommendation for any sailor looking for high octane solo sailing without being overpowered.

HAPPY CAT
SAILING INNOVATION SINCE THE 1960s
Since The 1960s
With the purchase of the Semperit inflatable boat production in 1986, the Grabner company also took over the production of the first demountable catamaran – the Semperit Kat. This catamaran has been in production since the 1960s.
Who We Are
In 1986, Grabner purchased Semperit, which included taking over the production of the first demountable catamaran, the Semperit Kat, a boat that was eventually renamed to the one we know and love today, the Happy Cat.
The Happy Cat Story
In production since the 1960s, Happy Cat’s innovations are backed by decades of research and insights from recreational and professional sailors alike. The first catamarans were made of wood, but today’s models include parts made of aluminum and rubber, providing a lightweight and optimized sailing experience.
The most recent upgrade of the Happy Cat Evolution and Hurricane to a high-tech carbon mast shows that the innovative DNA of the Grabner brand will continue to push what’s possible in the inflatable catamaran space.
The Finest Handmade Inflatable Boats
Happy Cat boats are made from high quality, eco-friendly materials, and are handmade in the Grabner factory in Austria. The catamaran boats and hulls are made of a special EPDM/natural rubber boat skin that is easy to repair, The inner coating of natural rubber offers maximum airtightness so the air stays in the hose longer and you can do more sailing, and less pumping. Also see our hand pump.
It’s one thing for a boat of Happy Cat’s caliber to fit in two to three bags, it’s another to only need 30-40 minutes to set up and hit the water. Once you’re on the water, the right conditions can produce speeds of over 20 knots. A piece of paradise that only a sailor knows. Clear skies and a strong wind await.
Happy Cat Warranty
Grabner provides a 24-month total warranty on all boats and a 7-year warranty on the boat-skin. For full details on what is covered in the warranty, reference the Happy Cat Owner’s Manual here.
