DESIGNS & PLANS

Study Plans are available
for these designs - remember a study plan gives you more details and a
wood materials list usually on
two A1 sheets, so that you can cost out a project
before ordering the full plans. When you order the full construction plans
you do not need to order the study plan as well, as all the study details
are on the full plans.
We have just 3
designs - there are study plans (A1 sheets with sections, construction
details and a wood materials list, for most of these designs - for further
information please see the price list on the main page.
Note -
In the particulars for each design, the dry weight is given for guidance
only and will vary depending on the grade/density of plywood and solid
wood used - different thicknesses of ply are often used by builders and
the dry weight figure is based on the thinnest ply specified.
Also the Guidance Use comments are given in good faith and are based on
feedback from previous builders etc and based on standard weight adults
- contact us if you want further clarification before ordering/building.

CAT
25
|
|
The CAT 25 was designed to fit the Micro Multihull racing class as it was
originally conceived. A set of plans is available to upgrade the standard design
to fit the existing rules . Construction is similar to that of the CAT 19. Both
boats incorporate external daggerboards which therefore do not encroach on the
accommodation and are easy to install. 1/4 ply is used for most of the
construction in both boats. LOA 250 (263 in MK2 version); Beam

Headroom 50; Dry wht. approx. 1850 lbs.; Loading capacity 1600 lbs.

CAT 254
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is the latest racing version of the CAT 25 and embodies a long waterline
hull with a light weight construction using tortured ply. The pre-shaped sides
are simply stitched to the bottom and epoxied at a set angle. The 6mm sides are
then pulled up producing a round sectional shape. This gives a very light but
stiff hull which simply uses bunk tops and shelves as longitudinal stiffening.
Four berths can be fitted into the hulls along with basic cooking and toilet
facilities to comply with the MOCRA Rules. Apart from being a racing catarmaran the
CAT 254 is also an ideal platform for fast cruising. LOA 263 (8.00m);
Beam O.A. 169 (5.1m); Beam (Hull) 36 (1.07m); 19

CAT 40
|
|
|
The CAT 40 is a comfortable cruising catamaran using the latest thoughts on wide
bodied hulls enabling much more accommodation than usual on a catamaran of this
length. The standard arrangement has 8 dedicated berths (including 3 doubles)
with the ability to sleep many more. There are 2 wcs and a large galley
and deck saloon along with plenty of deep stowage space, a large cockpit and
inside and outside steering positions. Construction is based upon pre-shaped ply
bulkheads and frames being slotted onto the ply hogs/stems so preforming the
shape of the hulls accurately without the need for lofting. Obviously on such a
capacious boat, there is much scope for alteration both in layout and in the
basic use of the boat. She could for instance, be used purely as a motor yacht
providing a very stable platform for diving etc. LOA 40; Beam O.A. 25;
Beam (Hull) 73; Draft 37; Displ 8 tons; Sail Area 880 sq.ft.
