This video was taken by the skipper of a 54ft yacht in the Caribbean. The situation was that the skipper questioned the legendary speed under sail of the Shearwater 45, so Steve Hunt, the owner of "Maggy May", challenged him to a race to the next island and gave him a head-start of nearly 40 minutes. This was taken as the 45 sailed past him. It continued through his lee and arrived in port an hour ahead of the 54. See more info at http://dixdesign.com/sh45.htm .

Out sailing with the Dazcats! ▫️ Thanks to Dazcat Catamarans for the footage, edit by Katamarans. ▫️ We met some of the Dazcat team at the Multihull Show in La Grande Motte and are going to have to organise that visit to Cornwall, the Land of the Giants. ▫️ The combined strengths of Dazcat, Multimarine and the Multihull Centre has enabled this group to grow steadily over recent years with rising demand for their services and their high quality performance cruising catamarans. ▫️ Centralisation of weight is a USP with these yachts all designed to reduce pitching motion. The soles are raised at the centre of each hull to create room for the engines, tanks and systems amidships. The lower centre of gravity of the boat gives a ride that you could compare to a low slung mid-engine sports car versus a 4x4 / SUV. ▫️ This company is one to watch. For a history of Dazcat head to 'https://kats.co/daz'. ▫️ ▫️ ▫️ #multihulls #dazcat #sailing #catamarans #dazcatcatamarans #multihull #catamaran #performancecatamarans #katamarans #cornwall #yachtdesigb
