cruising catamaran in composite.
This
52' catamaran design felt inspired when I came up
with it. It had a new look; kind of retro, yet
technological. The client, from North Carolina,
wanted to produce them in Turkey. I offered
to 3D model the new house and set it on new hulls
for a small fee. The client liked the study,
but demanded full study plans be included the same
small fee. I produced them for him, at no extra cost.
The flared hulls afford huge amounts of room inside
while keeping a relatively skinny waterplane.
The advanced rig and aerodynamic house shape allow
superior windward work compared with others in its
class. The client next demanded that the full
construction plans be given to him at no extra cost
or he would set up a website to tell all what a bad
designer I am. Nice. Construction is foam/glass.
Both high pointing boards or keels are available.
The work is done through study plans. I like
this design.
