[#1449]

I am trying to sell a beautiful wood catamaran but I don't know the make/model/year of it. I really want to sell it to someone who will take care of it and possibly take me sailing some time...seems I can't. I posted some pictures but would like to get more information...

It is different that any other I have seen or can find images of...the tarp actually laces to the hulls. Honestly I don't even know how to use your site but am trying for the interest of a classic boat (History buff here)

there are a number of cats out there made from wood, 2 I have seen on this and other websites;-
1) Shark catamarans http://sharkcatamaranclass.org/
2) Cougar catamarans http://www.thebeachcats.com/classifieds/showproduct.php/product/10618/cat/1

Hope this helps some, otherwise you will need to open an album on this website and post pics there to see if anyone can help identify unknown cat

There were some wooden tornados made also. I would also suggest adding an album and posting a pic. If the people on here haven't seen one it is either a home built one off or a really esoteric european make.

Regards,
Dave

The wood Tornados were the material of choice before the cooked Marstroms took over. I have two & they're stiff & fast. Tornados are 20' long & 10' wide

Esoteric: Really really unusual. Only a few people know about it.

Apparently abstruse means the same thing, but using that would be just silly. 🙂

That's actually very funny. One of my coworkers was saying that she had enough points on her credit card for a trip to europe. I responed that so did I, only it had to be to Latvia or Kazakstan.

Andrew, I don't think the woody mystere look would suit you somehow.
