single-handedmultipleEPDM

Overview
The HAPPY CAT STAR MINI is a compact, transportable sailing catamaran that brings proven technology into a format optimised for single-handed use and easy packing. It fits into two wheeled bags and one sail bag, requires no trailer and assembles quickly by one person. Capacity is up to 3 adults + 1 child with a maximum payload of 350 kg.

Packing & Transport

• Packed into 2 wheeled bags (approx. 185 × 30 × 30 cm) for hulls, frame, mast parts, rudder, centreboards and small parts; longest single part: 181.5 cm (upper mast part).
• 1 sail bag (approx. 180 × 30 cm) for mainsail and jib.
• Fits many cars and camper vans; no trailer required. Suitable for storage in garage, cellar or shed.

Capacity & Use

• Optimised for solo sailing; also suitable for family and day tours.
• Maximum persons: 3 adults + 1 child.
• Maximum payload: 350 kg.
• Assembly time: approx. 30 minutes.

Hull & Material
The wave‑piercing hull shape reduces water resistance for improved speed and handling. Key characteristics include:

• Slightly raised bow and stern for reduced resistance and smooth gliding.
• Up to 30% higher average speed versus conventional hull shapes.
• Wave‑piercing bow to cut waves and lower drag; low bow edge for reduced wind resistance and easier tacking.
• Large hull diameter (47 cm) for extra buoyancy and higher waterline.
• 1100 dtex EPDM one‑piece vulcanised construction with inner natural rubber coating for airtightness; PVC‑ and phthalate‑free, impact and abrasion resistant, easy to repair.

Frame & Rig
Lightweight precision frame and high‑tech corners provide stability and fast assembly.

• 4‑part profile frame with bolt rope track for direct trampoline feeding and quick tensioning.
• One‑piece precision corners (no weld seams) for exact fit, low weight and reduced twisting.
• Generously dimensioned mast profile with custom plug connections and near‑watertight joints; integrated mast base joint for easy single‑person raising/lowering.
• 4‑point bowsprit bracing and redundant forestay/shrouds for increased rig stability.

Sails & Sail Handling

• Mainsail: 6 m², fully battened, modern boomless cut, wider upper section for light‑wind drive, large windows for visibility, 5‑position clew adjustment.
• Jib: 3 m², optimised lead points near the mast, large viewing window, endless furling system for easy reefing and deployment.
• Total sail area: 9 m². Combined sail weight approx. 4.90 kg.
• Traveller and trimming system enable precise mainsail control (control lines and cleats provided).
