Hi! I’m starting the build of a kurt hughes design day charter cat to be completed spring 2022 in southwest florida. it will be a cylinder molded wood composite build. I’d like to communicate with anyone else who is currently building, or has built a similar boat. i’m a professional boat builder, having built and worked on several of kurts designs.
couple of questions:
- anybody have a suitable dagger board mold? or want to use mine when i’m done with it?
- any good leads for sourcing rudder shafting?
- if anyone needs uni or triax i have found somebody with a couple tons nearby (sarasota area). vectrix and very reasonably priced. let me know in the comments and i’ll post info.
Fantastic to see this build happening. Please keep posting as I will be watching eagerly to see how this goes. Do you expect a lot more man hours than the hulls you built for the powercat? Are you building alone? Great stuff!

I’m not building it. Matthew has a crew doing it. I will post more as I get them.
