Anyone seen one of these? Here is a guy selling instructional videos for building a catamaran from thinwall PVC and Wallmart cloth for sails.

"Note: RebelCat 5 is designed for cruising on lakes, not ocean racing with one hull out of the water."

The video also says it has "wave piercing hulls".
I would actually take it for a sail if someone dropped it on my dock.

Note: The wave piercing hulls are made out of traffic cones.

Next time you drive into an unmarked pothole, just think that somebody just built their own catamaran!

I thought the video said you cut a slit top & bottom, then heated the PVC & bent it to fit?
I had to watch the entire video, was recuperating after a nasty NAcra day in 30 mph, & my buddy was slow on a beer run.
I also noticed that not a single segment showed the sewer tube cat under sail, they were all stills.
I don't imagine there was much shape to the home sown sail made with $1/yd Wally World fabric, but what the hell, it still would beat sitting on the shore all day.

Something I saw on the site said he had two methods and now recommends using 10 inch pvc and traffic cones (which have a 10 inch base) for the nose because it's simpler than the heat and shape method.

Still wonder what the source of the traffic cones is supposed to be.

You want cones? Just pick a few up on the way to or from Island Hop. Every Interstate in Mississippi is under construction.
