Waharram Designed Catamaran
15 February 2014 | Fort Pierce City Marina
Thomas Lee
A wonderful James Wharram designed catamaran is currently in the Fort Pierce City Marina. It's tied up along the fuel dock since it is too wide to fit in a slip
It is of interest to me, since I built a Wharram Cat out of wood many years ago and sailed it on Lake Superior.
In the mid 50's, based on his research into ancient Polynesian boat design, James Wharram built the first off-shore Catamaran in Britain and sailed it out into the Atlantic. While the world's yachting community were still dismissing such a design as a worthy sea-going vessel, James was landing his 23'6" 'Double Hulled Canoe' called TANGAROA in the West Indies.
