Dux Boats Hammerhead PD-400

The Hammerhead can be used for everything from fishing, tubing, skiing, diving, kiteboarding,
and even racing!

The DUX HammerHead is a 13-foot handcrafted, completely collapsible catamaran inflatable boat. The HammerHead is extremely versatile and can be used for a wide array of water applications ranging from pleasure cruisers to rescue boats. The transom is open for self-bailing reasons, however, it can be ordered closed if you choose. Be sure to discuss the transom details with us when placing your order.

Inflatable Industries continues to take the rough ride out of the inflatable boat by adding smaller pontoons, called hijackers, to the bottom of the main pontoon’s at such a degree that it creates a tunnel – from which, the term “tunnel hull” is derived. The tunnel utilizes the airflow and water flow to lift the boat evenly and safely on a plane. The bottom of the hijackers is protected with a urethane shield which allows for beach landings.

What do we mean when we say “The HammerHead, PD-400 model is a Twin Sponson designed, True Tunnel hull inflatable boat?” Although the dimensions and physics involved in building such a hi-performance boat are kept as intellectual property, it is proven the Tunnel Hull is calculated, created, and added to the bottom of this boat in a very strong manner! This tunnel allows the air to run under the floor and above the water of the Dux Tunnel hull boat line.

IMPORTANT NOTE: The HammerHead and other “PD” models, will operate in shallow water conditions as low as 6 inches on plane and 10 inches off plane.
