Topaz Cat16 Catamaran

The Topaz catamaran range has been designed by multi hull racing legends Yves Loday and Rob White.

The hulls are constructed using the TRILAM roto-moulding technique used on the Topaz range of sailboats and are very robust and resilient. The hulls incorporate skegs rather than dagger boards so beaching the CAT is safe and simple and the lightweight TRILAM Metalicene hulls are easy to handle ashore and require virtually no maintenance.
