That, in spite of the fact it is expensive, harder to clean and dry after use, and a bit more fussy when it comes to where and when you would really want to use it. Harold, et al, I have a Khatsalano-S and dry it after use by using two "muffin" fans. These are the flat 6" square fans which are usually mounted on electronics for air cooling. After rinsing the boat, I deflate the sponsons, open the hatches and place the fans in the cockpit. The fans circulate the air from the cockpit out the hatches (the fans are directed to the bow and stern). Using the fans really speeds up the drying time, especially with the Khat's narrow bow and stern.
