Launch day of the Skoota 28 powercat. On board the builder, his wife and the designer. A general view of the boat. Twin 20hp outboards give 15.5 knots or 10 knots with just one engine. Note the cockpit seat backs have still to be finished and the boat is trimmed aft because all the tools are in the cockpit and the cabin is empty You can build this powercat yourself in plywood using plans from Woods Designs. We also have three other powercats, at 20ft, 24ft and 36ft as well as a comprehensive range of sailing multihulls 14ft - 45ft that you can also build from plans. Please check out Woods Designs www.sailingcatamarans.com for more details. Thank you

Peter Harburg’s RP 100 Black Jack continues to show good form in her preparations for the Rolex Sydney Hobart Yacht Race, winning the SOLAS Big Boat Challenge on Sydney Harbour last week. In September this year the Bow Caddy Media was given the opportunity to join some of the luminaries of Australian sailing aboard Black Jack (including Tom Slingsby, Chris Nicholson and Tom Addis) for their early work-up campaign in the Whitsundays under skipper Mark Bradford. So, as a taster in the lead-up to the Boxing Day start of the great race south, here’s an on-board view of how the action unfolds on Black Jack when the breeze is up.
