I have been building multi hulls , specifically double outriggers since
the mid 60's
Built the Catfisher 34 which was a displacement Catamaran with twin
diesels and used for Long Line fishing. Was destroyed in Carabelle FL
by a Hurricane.
Built the CEE CAT 14 and 17 which was a power cat with a 1/2" thick
lexan panel in the wing in the 14 ft version and a flats boat in the
17. the 17 with a 40 HP did a 31 mph .
Currently own the PT-32 which was an experiment with a Power Trimaran
that could be singlehanded inexpensively around the great Loop. Started
with the 40 HP and got 12 cruise. Put a 100 hp on it and did 18
cruise. Is 8 1/2 ' beam so trailerable. The Catfisher was 18 ft beam.
Did some design studies for the Working waterman concept for a Coral
Cat 40 and did the plans for a 50 ft Cat for Brazil but the potential
builder went bust.
The PT-32 is on the water but not being used <BG> and for sale. Nothing
to do with design but personal issues.
