Todays best Catamaran boat kit package, the Proteus 106

The Proteus 106 catamaran design by Angelo Lavranos,size wise has to be the best kit on the market,its right sized for fast crossing of oceans,or local waters and relaxing sailing with a family.


The picture shows the boat with an optional extension to allow the rudders to be hidden,the standard design has rudders transom hung for ease of fitting and also servicing.



Sundowners on a Proteus 106 in Thailand (sister ship) at a price of R179,000,thats around U$25,210,your supplied with a full pack,which includes the 130 sheets of plys and MDF (removable stations) meranti wood stringers,epoxies and glass tapes and cloth,all you need is tools and your labour ,we have a proffesional yard who can quote on the labour if required.Plans are NZ$3600 extra and direct from Angelo Lavranos in New Zealand. Kit orders take around a month to prepare,we ship world wide too.



Here is what Rick Daniel, the Thai boat owner says:


Photo's of my sail boat in Koh Chang, Koh Mac, Koh Kood Islands, Thailand
I still have poor fitting second hand sails and need more work, but having
fun with the boat.

I Recently sailed to windward in 35 plus knots gusts of head wind and full
steady wind of 25 knots with 2nd reef and 2 meter waves. Had some waves
over the cabin top and really tested the boat build.

I was very happy with the boat and it pointed very well to weather. It was
not a enjoyable beat to weather, it was only about 4 hours. But the boat got
a good test.


Kind Regards,

Angelo
