On
The Water
From
the outset, the Whitehaven series of catamarans has been
designed with ease and pleasure of sailing foremost in
mind. Whether the requirements are for weekend racing
or cruising, coastal cruising or comfortably reeling off
200 mile days whilst running before the trades on a long
ocean passage, those who enjoy sailing for the sheer pleasure
of it will be impressed with the performance of the Whitehaven
range of catamarans.
The
daggerboards and hull shape make for quick and positive
tacking and good tracking on all points of sail.
Many
experienced multihull sailors expect to have to back the
jib to tack but this is not necessary on the Whitehaven
catamarans and only slows tacking. Another feature of
the Whitehaven designs is the reserve buoyancy forward,
allowing the cat to be sailed hard downwind without depressing
the bows.
