assembly videos or manuals for Ducky 17 and Ducky 19

I am very interested in either the Ducky 17 or Ducky 19 for lake sailing in the northern US and Southern Canada,
mainly one day trips but potentially more.

Can you post links to either videos or instruction manuals showing the assembly procedure for each?

Both of these seem very versatile cruising catamarans, as I have not found anything similar either inflatable or in fiberglass.
But I am uncertain about the complexity of assembly for each and this would be very useful information.

thanks very much in advance! These really appear to be exceptional boats.

These catamarans, certainly, very reliable the cruiser, but I think that their assembly and dismantling within one day will be tiresome. It is impossible to call them day off boats. If to leave with them, then for the weekend.

Thanks for your reply Vitaliy,

I'd still like to see or read the details of the assembly procedure. These are unusual boats compared to a fiberglass sailboat, where there's a lot of similarity.
Understanding the assembly procedure would remove a lot of uncertainty.

You're right, it would make more sense to assemble them once at the start of the spring, keep the Ducky moored for the sailing season and then dissassemble and store for the winter.
