21" is part of the permanent collection at the Australian Maritime
Museum and hangs in the air over Australia II. Since then a wide range
of fast, safe racing, and cruising yachts have been designed, from

cruising Power Catamarans. These designs have won virtually every major
race in Australia and have excelled on the global stage. After 20 years
of business Jutson Yacht Design has gone trans-Pacific. Jutson Yacht

Powerplay Catamarans - Australia -
www.powerplaycatamarans.com.au/
Immediately prior to the establishment of
Powerplay Catamarans James was the owner and general manager of
Townsville Slipways, a company dedicated to meeting the repair and
maintenance needs of the North Queensland marine industry. It had been
his observation over the years that people were moving away from the
mono hull boats and tending towards catamarans. People seemed to be
looking for better performance, lower fuel and running costs, with a
larger boat area and more stability. Catamarans certainly offer that and
from his observation people were also tending away from sailing cats as
they required more effort to get to their destination. It seemed obvious
to James that powered catamarans were the way of the future.

Avante Yachts - Brazil -
www.avanteyachts.com/
The catamaran
concept applied to the trawler yacht offers new levels of space and
stability/comfort. They do not roll like a monohulled trawler and have
no need for any roll dampening devices. And like all composite
catamarans, the “New Yorker” is virtually non sinkable. There is
sufficient buoyancy in the skin alone to support a badly damaged vessel
without considering the numerous watertight compartments, and the use of
Kevlar in the likely impact areas which minimises the possibility of
such damage occuring in the first place.
