Abstract

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein modulares Wasserfahrzeug-System, bei dem die paarweise anzuordnenden Schwimmkörpermodule (10a,10b) mit Aussparungen (10c) versehen sind, die in Verbindung mit einem seperaten Bootsboden (16,16b) die Integration eines wasserdichten Passagier-/Nutzraumes zwischen den Schwimmkörpern (10a,10b) und ihren Verbindungsmodulen (12,13) ermöglichen.
Die Konstruktion erlaubt damit außerdem sowohl die Erstellung eines "Gleiter-Bootstyp" mit wenig Tiefgang als auch eines "Verdränger-Bootstyp" mit höherem Auftrieb ohne zusätzlichen Bedarf an Bauelementen.
Das System ermöglicht den Aufbau unterschiedlicher Bootsvarianten und -größen aus Rumpf- Antriebs- und Nutzungsmodulen verschiedener Abmessungen, die alle miteinander kompatibel sind.
Die Auslegung der Module ermöglicht die einfache Handhabung des Systems durch eine Person und seinen Transport mit dem Pkw.

The invention relates to a modular watercraft system in which the floating body modules (10a, 10b) to be arranged in pairs are provided with cutouts (10c) which, in conjunction with a separate boat floor (16, 16b), integrate a watertight passenger / utility space allow between the floats (10a, 10b) and their connecting modules (12,13).
The design also allows both the creation of a "glider boat type" with little draft and a "displacement boat type" with higher buoyancy without additional need for components.
The system enables the construction of different boat variants and sizes from hull, drive and usage modules of different dimensions, all of which are compatible with each other.
The design of the modules enables the system to be easily handled by one person and transported by car.
