Boat "Kazanka": technical characteristics and features
The domestic market offers a lot of small-sizedswimming means for rest and fishing.

Nevertheless, the ship was constantly being modified, resulting in a whole line under this brand.
Modifications
Boat "Kazanka", technical characteristicswhich we will consider below, has several models that differ in some constructive details. In the batch production the following modifications were launched:
- Variation M ("Yuzhanka").
- The model is numbered 2M.
- Ships under the index 5 (M2 / M3).
Boat "Kazanka M", technical characteristicswhich in general terms are identical for most variations, is equipped with a body of alloy duralumin. All considered boats have a small draft, easy access to the glider and optimum load capacity.
Modest seaworthy indicators do not allowuse the vessel on rough rivers. However, the boat "Kazanka", the technical characteristics of which are not equal to the boat, is excellent for fishing and relaxing on calm water. The average distance of movement is not more than a kilometer from the coast, while on the ship it is allowed to install small and medium-power motors.
History of creation
The first boat "Kazanka", technicalthe characteristics of which improved over time, was published in 1955. The developer and manufacturer was the SP Gorbunov enterprise located in Kazan.
Material used for ship constructionwas also used for the construction of aircraft and spacecraft. It is an alloy of copper, aluminum and manganese, known as duralumin. Its advantages are lightness, strength, long service life and no exposure to corrosive processes. The boat "Kazanka M", technical characteristics of which can not be called ideal, has gained great popularity among fans of river recreation and fishing.
Pros and cons
A more modern model is a ship forindex 5M2. It has several large dimensions and improved technical parameters. For some time the boat was considered the longest swimming facility for fishermen in the Soviet Union. The five-meter long and skeleton construction allowed to accommodate up to six passengers at the same time.
To the pluses of the boat in question, usersinclude resistance to external factors, good capacity, unpretentiousness in maintenance, good maneuverability. There are also shortcomings. For example:
- the problem with the stability in troubled water;
- rather weak bottom;
- hit of splashes on a stern in connection with features of a keel rim;
- limitation on the power of the hinged motor.
It is worth noting that the ship, despite all the disadvantages, has a low cost, as well as the availability of supplies.

Boat "Kazanka 2M", technical characteristicswhich are given above, it has a case of duralumin, a small draft and an easy way out into the planing mode, which perfectly aggregates with a low-power engine.
Improved version
An updated version of the domestic punthas a converted cockpit, increased maximum power of power plants, protection of the transom from moisture, rubber seals. The internal compartment has grown due to the removal of the transom part.

The glass consists of the right and left structures. Around it there is a special frame from the profile, with the help of which it is attached to the brackets. The joints are finished with a rubber seal that protects the part from vibration and mechanical stress.
Outboard motor controlled by systemcables. Additional control provides the steering wheel, remote control and related brake and transmission units. The bottom of the boat is covered with gum (fastened with screws) from moisture-resistant plywood. There is a remote control scheme for the Neptune or Whirl class motors.
