The next day the biaxial in the gutter had cured. Ready to fold it up. we got delayed as one of the cranes was too small and had to be enlarged.
The hull goes wild until it is put in the deck flange.
And More 48′ Cat
48′ Cat Continues More
Next the gutter has structural bog and biaxial roving placed in it. Shown is Matthew’s biaxial roving impregnation device. Cool. It worked pretty well.
48′ Cat Continued
Next the two hull halves were wired together with zip ties.
48′ Cat in Sarasota
I got to spend three days in Sarasota helping build a 48′ cat hull.
the first picture shows what the panels we will use look like.
Meanwhile the Miami Bed Boat Continues
I have been tempted to walk away from this job more than once. I decided I could warp the hulls enough to carry 700 kg of motors. 1543 lbs of outboards. It is for daycharter out of Miami but they didn’t know the USCG would require railings. I’m at version 21 now.

This 48′ daycharter cat is being built with CM developed plywood technology. It will be Peter’s third CM boat.
These are the CM hull panels.
Kamanu at 35 or 36
Kamanu, my first day charter catamaran, has been operating for 35 or 36 years now. 36 x 24. CM developed plywood.
I will be over to visit her in late November.
Terry’s DF-31
A customer, Terry, didn’t get around to building his actual boat yet, but he built a model. I like yellow boats.
37′ Cat Update
A slightly stretched version of the 37′ cat has been updated. It is being owner built at Betts’s Boatyard in Anacortes, WA. Foam/glass.
