BOOT EXCLUSIVE:
TIWAL 2XL Tiwal will be presenting their new inflatable sailboat, the Tiwal 2XL, at Boot Düsseldorf from 18th to 26th January, on stand 15D22. Measuring 3.80m in length and weighing just 52kg, this sailing dinghy has been specially designed for families (2 adults and 2 children). It fits into 2 bags that can be popped in the car and takes just 25 minutes to assemble.
SHARING THE PLEASURES OF SAILING WITH THE FAMILY:
The Tiwal 2XL has been designed for families who want to enjoy sailing together. Equipped with an 8.2m² mainsail and a 1.8m² jib, this dinghy allows every member of the crew to take an active part in the sailing, for a boating experience that’s both fun and easy. With its inflatable wings and wide deck, it offers generous space and great stability. Young and old alike can move around the boat easily and confidently, enjoying comfortable, safe sailing. The Tiwal 2XL is the largest boat in the range, but it retains the qualities that have made Tiwal such a success: simplicity, efficiency, lightness and transportability. “This model meets a recurring demand from customers looking for a boat for the whole family, yet that is still compact and easy to carry anywhere,” explains Emmanuel Bertrand, President and Co-founder of Tiwal, “Children and adults alike can take part in sailing and enjoy sharing some good times out on the water.”
A SIMPLE YET TECHNICAL BOAT
The Tiwal 2XL inherits the technical characteristics of all the boats in the range, with an inflatable hull made from high-pressure double-wall fabric and a V-shaped hull, a aluminum structure, carbon mast and a loose-footed sail. With its 1.8sqm jib and 8.2sqm reefable mainsail, it has been designed for optimum performance in light to moderate winds. The result of a collaboration with North Sails, this well-balanced sailing dinghy remains true to the brand’s philosophy of simplicity and manoeuvrability. Marion Excoffon, Designer and Co-founder “We opted for an unstayed rig. Every detail has been thought out to maximise sailing pleasure, while guaranteeing simplicity of use and a refined design”. Marion Excoffon adds: “The result is a real boat that’s responsive and fun, where every member of the crew can find their place and will get the most out of the sailing experience.” The first models are due to be delivered in June 2025.
