Paladin Mariner the first amphibious PPC capable of coming to a stop on water!

Paladin Mariner - Paladin Industries have teamed up with Steve's Para Sports to provide the Paladin Mariner. The Mariner is an amphibious powered parachute capable of landing and taking off after coming to a full stop, on water.

To accomplish this the Mariner is equipped with the ParaMast system. "The ParaMast system is a patented device designed to hold the canopy of an aquatic or amphibious powered parachute off the ground or out of the water during takeoff and landings." 

For the novice looking at the unit - it appears that too large poles, attached to the sides of the craft,  similar to what you might see used by a pole vaulter are used to suspend the chute in the air.

An advantage of this system is that because it keeps the parachute semi-airborne, the chute inflates faster, eliminating oscillation experienced by some ppc's during take off.

The Mariner is flown on Air - Tech floats and is powered by the 80 or 110 hp fuel injected Hirth engine. The craft delivered to the customer is pre-assembled and fully loaded with instruments, floats, and training included in the purchase price.
