We were clearing things out in the office and came across these concept drawings, some of them dating back to 1987, when Daz had just left Falmouth Marine School and was working out of Saltash with Rob Vincent, who would render 3D images from Daz's sketches. We thought you might like to see them, if only to be reminded that design was possible before the arrival of CAD. None of these designs is still available, but if any of them inspire you, you can always commission something new based on one of them.

Dazcat
26' |
AKA the Dazcat 8m (this was way back before compulsory metrication) - our open deck racing catamaran built in 1989 is shown here with its optional bridgedeck pod. It has won its class in both single and two-handed transatlantic races, as well as many others, and has since proven itself reliable and safe during a long cruise around eastern Europe. |

Dazcat

This is the first boat Daz designed. Built in 1987 (and then modified after it was damaged in a gale), it went on to win the Freedom Challenge Bowl in the Round the Isle of Wight Race in 1991, setting a record time that remained unbroken for years. | ||||||||

Dazcat 34' Click on thumbnail for more images |
AKA the Variable Geometry 34', designed in 1989, this boat came either with the bridgedeck you see here, or with an open deck. The idea was that you could leave the bridgedeck pod ashore when racing, so streamlining and lightening the boat. | ||||||||

Dazcat 34' CRC |
You may notice the similarity between this drawing and the design for Hilary Lister's cat - we always knew the time for this boat would come. This Convertible Racer Cruiser was designed with a balestron rig, and to have a stern that could either be open or covered with a canvas bimini. | ||||||||

Dazcat
46' |
This design is the forerunner to Lady Bounty, the 14m we built for the Bligh's in 1998, which is still going strong. | ||||||||
