Default power catamaran

Hello group members,

I am Bert Ottens from holland (europe)
i'm plannig to build a power catamaran 36f lenth 15f w.
I'm planning to build it from okume/glass/epoy.
i need two engines (probably around 150hp each)
and stern drives.
Is there anyone who knows prices of parts/engines/resin etc or has any
advice for building?

Hmm, since you ask I would suggest you get plans from a pro. Plans
won't tell you what mareials cost but how much you need. For materials
you should start look around locally and then on the internet.

http://www.multihulls.org/designlinks.html
On this web you find a list of links to designers. These are all
mostly designers of sailing multihulls but a few do power cats
too. Malcolm Tennant and Kurt Hughs do this I believe.

Allan Veth at Evecom may be able to help yo with both plans and
materials:

Alexander Verhuis (Alexander's Yacht Design I think) might do
power cat design but I haven't met him in many, many years.
Allan should be able to put you in touch with Alexander.

Cheers,
