robust foam/glass construction- lightweight but rugged
Since
the prototype 21' power-cat was first designed some
15 years ago, this concept has become very popular.
This style is universal now for a rowing team's chase
boat. It was designed as a quick, economical run-about
that creates very little wake. The slender, fully displacement
hulls disturb the water very little. It is wider than
the competition though narrow enough to fit in a container
or on a trailer. The extra width helps when it is needed
to rescue other boaters.
Construction
is foam/glass. It is unsinkable. 6hp per side or a single
12 hp motor will be good for 10 to 14 knots depending
on load.
The
design is demountable for easy shipping. It is no longer
being built, but plans are available. |
