The Response 870 provides a synergy between rugged composite
engineering, progressive design style and practical marine experience.
Utilising an epoxy e-glass laminate with Corecell foam, the Response is
extremely light yet incredibly strong.
By using high performance resins and fibres in the construction, and
engineering every component with weight reduction and maximum strength as a
design criteria, dk have produced a fully functioned, extremely versatile
vessel, that is equally at home in a tough offshore environment as it is on
a day trip for a picnic on the lake.
Concentration on weight reduction and low center of gravity has allowed dk
to give you a boat that planes quickly and is exciting and stable in
high-speed manoeuvres. As well as being easier to tow and launch, with the
radar mast down and the tubes deflated the whole boat fits in to a standard
container or back of a HIAB truck.
The low rolled out tube position, not only gives the Response great
stability and a gentle motion at rest but allows it to be used effectively
in a swell as a tender for any vessel ranging from super cruisers to racing
yachts.
The enclosed steering position of the Response give ultimate protection from
the tough environments this boat is used in. The custom curve moulded
windscreen and high seat position give the driver the ultimate feeling of
control for difficult manoeuvres. Wipers and fresh water spray give
confidence even in the most trying conditions, while the open back and
sliding side screen allow for fresh air circulation in climates closer to
the equator.
