Maricat 4.3

Présentation

One of the earliest and most successful beach catamarans in Australia. It's popularity approaches that of the Hobie's of the US. Many of the earlier boats were sold to resort hotels etc.
The original builder was J & S Fiberglass until 1982. The manufacturing rights where then taken over some time later by Mariglass (Seawind Catamarans??) until the mid nineties. More recently the boat has been built by Ross Guinea of Brisbane (Brisbane Catamaran Centre).
A few modifications to the original design have been over the years to keep the cost down. For example, the rear beam and the traveller track were integrated into one extrusion and a one-piece trampoline replaced the original two piece one laced up the middle. The small cruising jib however, was replaced with a larger racing jib.
Still in production as of 2008.

Most often raced in the following configurations:

Class A Cat or UNA rigged single handed.
Class B Sloop rigged double handed.
Class C Supersloop with trapeze, sloop rigged single handed.One of the earliest and most successful beach catamarans in Australia. It's popularity approaches that of the Hobie's of the US. Many of the earlier boats were sold to resort hotels etc.
