How does it handle in chop? How well does it tack?

I wonder why inflatable catamarans are so popular in the former Soviet Union? Someone uploaded pictures of the Ducky brand inflatables recently. These are built in the Ukrain.

Question:
Where would the center board or boards go? If it doesn't have boards, how well would it track with asymetrical hulls (if it even has them)?

Centerboard install at the middle of the bridge.
Construction allow turn centerboard backward - for example, strong front blow (shoal, stone,...).
After desist blow, centerboard return to vertical position by strong rubber rope.

(Sorry for my English...)

Don't worry about your English, you still spell better than most I watched the video and it looks like a pretty stiff boat, however there is no video of the boat tacking, gybing, etcetera...
