Description:
In the mid 1950'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. There he built a second 40' Polynesian style Catamaran, 'Rongo', and sailed it up to New York and back to the UK accompanied by two German women - being the first to sail a catamaran West-to-East across the North Atlantic. These amazing Trans-Atlantic crossings and the follow up book "Two Girls, Two Catamarans" have etched the name James Wharram into the annals of yachting history. The quality of the Wharram self-build catamarans is reflected in their popularity, excellence of craftmanship and sound sailing qualities. More than 50 years on - with over 10,000 sets of plans sold and thousands turned into proud vessels - Wharram cats can be seen in harbours across the world, maintaining the highest reputation for surviving wind and wave.
