The Proteus 106 catamaran launch and sailing.




Seen here and in the water the first Proteus 106 catamaran looks really nice .


This is a really good package for a smaller but ocean going catamaran, designed by Angelo Lavranos to take you offshore if required.

This is the first Proteus 106 to be launched, the boat was built in Thailand and from templates, which takes a lot longer to do than with one of our CNC prepared kits. One boat builder in New Zealand has estimated the time saved will be around 400 hours.


Pictures are by Rick who is the owner and skipper of the boat.


Yacht Outcast, sailing in Thailand, this boat has the optional longer stern and rudders hidden underneath.

We are looking at an option to ship a kit to California,USA and in two lots, this will save the buyer the initial cost to a full outlay and allow him to set the bulkheads and stringers up, he can then purchase the hull and deck skins when he is ready for them.
