ALUMINIUM BOATS FROM SMÅLAND Aluminium boats from Småland Several expressions of a single philosophy Linder boats Like so many other successful companies, Linder Aluminiumbåtar AB has a story to tell. Ours Boat data Inkas canoes started 50 years ago. Over the decades, there have been a number of key events, product launches and choices of direction. Always with one interest at heart – building quality boats and canoes that give you many years of happy use. The story started in an old chicken barn. This is where Lars-Göran Linder built boats in plastic, the “in” material at that time. With the...

ARKIP 530 – A CALL TO ADVENTURE

CLASS WINNER With an Arkip 460, you are ready for anything. Open seas, sheltered coasts, jetties, lakes, near, far – go wherever fancy takes you. Just like all our boats, an Arkip 460 is easy to get to the waters of your choice. Its robustness aids launching. An Arkip is ideal for sports, fishing, simply getting around or powering your voyages of discovery. Like all our boats, it is almost completely recyclable and satisfies future requirements in respect of producers’ liability. Praised 460 demands something of you – a little seamanship. Its 50-hp motor can take you to 33 knots!

THE VERSATILE PLEASURE BOAT A Linder gives you time. This applies not least to the Sportsman 445 Max. Although slightly smaller than the 460, it is just as seaworthy. It is a versatile boat that, without compromise, meets many needs – fishing trips, water sports or, perhaps, just socialising with friends. However you choose to use your 445 Max, it is a fully equipped driving machine. A boat that, besides giving many years of pleasure, is typical of how we respond to what our customers have asked of us. The material is robust. It is also maintenance-free. Just as with all Linder boats, you can...

FOR ALL WEATHERS The 445 Catch was developed for sports fishers – and with sports fishers. It is a purebred boat for enthusiasts. The motivation to put all our experience into building the ultimate fishing boat came from so many of our other boats already being used for fishing. Fully equipped and fully finished, the 445 Catch is ready for all weathers and situations. It is based on the same hull as the 445 Max. Seaworthiness and easy propulsion are thus guaranteed. Add the remote-controlled electric drive in the bow and you have full command. With a 445 Catch, all waters are within reach. At...

COMPACT SPEED The Sportsman 400 is possibly our most versatile boat. As the competition in this “family” is extremely fierce, this is quite a statement. Despite the compact format, the Sportsman 400 is still a planing boat for 4 people. Throughout the years, it has been appreciated by young, old, enthusiasts, families and keen sports fishers alike. It gets you to places that are outside the reach of other boats. You can speed off into sheltered deep waters or creep along experiencing nature to the full in shallows and narrow channels. The strength of the material means you can go where plastic...

FOR HARD USE The Sportsman 355 is a miracle of robustness. This particular model is often subjected, perhaps a little unjustly, to heavy handling. It can take it! With a Sportsman 355, you choose to give up a little speed for even more rugged navigability. We are often amazed by how this planing boat is used. A workhorse for many, a rescue boat, a birdwatching platform... Take it with you. Use it. Load it, pack it, work it. Land where you want! It is not unusual to see an early 355. A few dents and scratches witness constant use. The shine has given way to a special patina. We feel this is the...

TIMELESS DESIGN, LIFELONG USE Quality is timeless. Few of our boats better encapsulate our philosophy. Inspired by the classical wooden skiff, we created a boat with a hull design that gives exceptional manoeuvrability as well as safety. A boat for sheltered waters, up to 4 people and effortlessly enjoying the experience of being on the water and at one with nature. As with all our models, a Fishing gives you the advantages of aluminium. Using either oars or a small outboard, the low weight is even more evident here. A Linder boat satisfies future requirements in respect of producers’ liability....

SIMPLICITY AND NATURALNESS There are times in our lives when we are by ourselves, yet not alone. And, yes, there are also boats for all occasions and situations. Fishing 410 is especially appropriate for some of these. It is light. You can handle it easily alone, both on water and while transporting it around on land. A touch smaller than the 440, it gives you still a little more mobility, slightly easier propulsion and, perhaps, just as much time to enjoy the experience. Few boats are as easy to own as the Fishing 410. The closest competitors are in our own ranges. A 410 is the choice for calm...

EVEN MORE NATURAL Our aluminium path began with Inkas. That was 35 years ago – yet another jubilee. The rest is, as they say, history. Success was not long in coming. The material has proven its superiority over plastic. That is why nearly all the canoes that are subjected to the most frequent and hardest use come from us. The canoes that can be found at rental outlets for example. That is where, over and over again, it begins. The user is smitten, entranced by the tranquillity and the closeness to nature. The idea is born – an Inkas of your own! We recommend trying it for yourself. Few other...

SEVERAL EXPRESSIONS OF A SINGLE PHILOSOPHY Quite rightly, the environment is now the focus of frequent and deep attention. There is a trend towards environmentally gentle products. Linder’s products rest on, and spring from, a rather robust philosophy shaped by generations of thrifty, down-to-earth people. We produce intelligently with little waste. A “trend” that has been a centuries-old way of life in the region where we work. the harbour. Our ranges include boats driven by motors from 2.5 hp to 100 hp (Arkip 530, launch in 2016) – speeds from a few knots to a full 38. No matter what your needs,...
