Компания "Кулик". "Московское Боут Шоу – 2026"

Moscow Boat Show 2026. SibCat-20. The sailing section of the exhibition was represented by four companies producing rigid-hull sailing yachts, including pleasure catamarans. Since I had little interest in luxury speedboats, the exhibition initially seemed weak, but this opinion changed within the first few hours of the exhibition. Our company presented the SibCat-20, a collapsible inflatable sailing catamaran. Interest in our catamaran was enormous! Three employees could barely cope with the influx of visitors. Everyone loved the boat. What visitors particularly liked: – The SibCat-20 doesn't require registration with the State Inspectorate for Small Vessels (GIMS), – the boat folds into four "bags" that fit easily inside the cabin of a medium-sized car, – the design includes a small enclosed tent-like cockpit, – its relatively light weight (135 kg) and passenger capacity (2-4 people) sufficient for most potential buyers, – its seaworthiness – perfect for a family trip on Lake Ladoga or the Volga, – the price was the last thing they asked about and was generally agreed to be reasonable. Of course, they asked, "Is there a larger (or smaller) version?" Most visitors came prepared – they had already familiarized themselves with our products on the website and were actively touching the catamaran, trying to fit it into their plans. But there were those who were "passing by" and lingered, surprised and delighted to learn that such a thing exists and that they were learning about it for the first time here at the exhibition. We spent four days communicating with existing owners of our catamarans, as well as potential owners. Face-to-face interaction is the most productive; we learned a lot about our vessels and what modern sailing tourists expect and want from us. We also had the opportunity to communicate with our partners—yacht accessory suppliers—and met new ones. The exhibition was very productive, giving us new directions for our development. Anatoly Kulik
