Register with Boatshed to see 49 extra photos of this Woods Skua Catamaran .Richard Woods has been designing sailing and power multihuls for over 40 years. Based in the UK, Woods Designs specialises in the design of multihulls for both home and professional builders. Founded in 1981 they now boast possibly the most comprehensive range of catamaran designs in the world. Nearly 3000 plans and over 200 production catamarans have now been sold. Boats are sailing all over the world. Cruisers have made many comfortable ocean crossings in complete safety while the number of trophies won is testament to the speed of the racing designs. The Skua is a 9m trailable coastal cruiser/racer and is is the largest boat that can be sensibly demounted and towed behind a car and fits inside a 40ft container. With round bilge hulls, dagger-boards, kick-up semi-balanced rudders and a performance rig, Skua was designed for those who want a larger version of the micro multihulls like Strider. Basically still a 4 berth, the hulls are larger enough to have 'snug doubles' if required. With a greater loading capacity and off shore capability than a micro, Skua can also be considered the minimum size for the longer coastal races. This one has been recently fully stripped back and modified to improve stiffness and performance. Strip planked cedar construction allows for a super lightweight build,. The current owner has upgraded the following - new aluminium beams, carbon central pod for engine housing and storage, carbon composite compression strut and prodder, new nets, new squabs, new mainsail and self tacking jib by GP Sails. Step up transom for easy access on and off dock or to a tender. Transom hung rudders on carbon gantries, new deck hatches, Dyneema rigging, all presented in good, clean order. This vessel has achieved 2nd in Mocra nationals 2001, 1st in Round the Island race 2002. The mast can be raised/lowered on the water or on a trailer. We are told that she is a powerful but forgiving boat, has survived 36 knot squalls in the Solent and sails well with just a headsail in strong winds. Very shallow draft easy to find a shallow spot to anchor where other boats cant go and is a great boat for exploring up creeks and rivers.
