James Wharram: Lifetime Achievement Award

A special award was presented to James Wharram for a 'Lifetime Achievement' as Pioneer catamaran builder - sailor and multihull designer.

About James Wharram

In the mid 50'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 still did not accept such a design as a worthy sea-going vessel, James was landing his 23'6" 'Double Canoe' called TANGAROA in Trinidad in the West Indies.

There he built a second 40' Polynesian style Catamaran, RONGO, and in 1959 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.

Since then, James Wharram has been designing, building and sailing offshore catamarans longer than any other multihull designer. James was a 'hands-on' designer having, over his lifetime, built personally many of the prototype designs. These prototypes were built in the open, in barns, workshops and all the range of building sites available to self-builders, in a variety of climate types from northern European to the Tropics. James was often referred to as a 'Living Legend' or as written in 'Yachting Monthly' in January 2006: "James Wharram is considered by many to be the father of modern multihull cruising."

James’ last achievement was his autobiography published in 2020 as ' People of the Sea ', which he wrote in conjunction with his design/life partner Hanneke Boon. James died in December 2021 at the age of 93. The design business is carried on by his co-designer Hanneke Boon .

Hui Wharram Cornwall Gathering 2024

We are having another Annual Hui! This Hui will mark 70 years since James designed his first Catamaran 'Tangaroa' and we are excited that we will be mooring at Devoran Quay just a 5 minute walk from the Wharram Headquarters based in Cornwall. It would be lovely to celebrate his achievement with all of you.

Pacific Islander History Month

This month of May in America is 'Pacific Islander History Month' and we at James Wharram Designs would like to join in and celebrate alongside them! As you may know, double canoes/catamarans are of ancient Polynesian origin. The modern day catamaran is a direct descendent of these original ocean-going vessels.

James Wharram's Last Ride

On 23 July, a motley fleet of self-built catamarans gathered off Cornwall to give James and Ruth Wharram their final escort. It was a fitting farewell to a legend. The ashes of James and Ruth Wharram were consigned to the sea to be carried by the ebb current out to the open ocean.

James' Eulogy

Hi everyone. I'm Matt. And apart from being truly honoured to be here to help send James on his way to his next adventure, I am here above all as a representative, really, for the many many people worldwide who's lives have been changed, for the better, as a result of James' life work.

A Living Legend Lives No More

We are very sad to announce that on the 14th December James Wharram left this earthly world, joining Ruth, Jutta and his many close friends that departed before him. At 93 years old his spirit has set out on the voyage to sail the oceans of heaven.

Length variations mean Cheetah can build to each customers load carrying requirements whilst maintaining similar waterlines and optimum fuel economy. It also allows greater flexibility with licensing and moorings.

Adventure Beyond Your Horizon

FOR THE GLOBETROTTERS,

TRAIL-BLAZERS, DAY-TRIPPERS, CAMPERS, STARGAZERS, EXPLORERS;

FOR FRIENDS AND FAMILY...

ARCHIPELAGO EXPEDITION YACHTS BREAK THE MOULD TO OFFER YOU EXCEPTIONALLY ENGINEERED BLUE-WATER CATAMARANS. WE OFFER ATTAINABLE LUXURY, WHILST PUSHING THE BOUNDARIES OF PERFORMANCE.

Our yachts are equally at home crossing oceans, exploring high-latitudes, or simply taking your friends and family out for a day in the sun.

Based in Hampshire on the South Coast of England, Archipelago Expedition Yachts are designed by a close-knit team of exceptional British naval architects, and are built on the Isle of Wight: the home of world yachting.

PUSHING THE BOUNDARIES OF CAPABILITY

Each yacht is built from aluminium and designed from the outset as a hybrid, ocean-capable motor catamaran, engineered to push the boundaries of capability as well as providing luxurious living space for your family and friends. Their striking appearance defies what a catamaran has been, and opens your world to all it can be.

FOUNDED BY A LIFE-LONG SAILOR

Archipelago was founded by Dr Stephen Weatherley, a life-long sailor and boat enthusiast, who expected and wanted more… more adventure, more space, more exciting design, more sustainability, and more accessibility for those who are less able to access the traditional yachting market. He wanted to share all this with other sailors, and so Archipelago was born. Find out more about the Archipelago Expedition Yachts adventure here .

ARCHIPELAGO 47

The yacht that defined the brand: the 47 foot (14.5m) ocean-capable Archipelago 47. Bridging the gap between performance, range and luxury accommodation, the Archipelago 47 offers the ultimate adventure.

Born from the highest-quality design and engineering, the Archipelago 47 offers ultimate performance, functionality and comfort.

The Archipelago 47 is also now offered in collaboration with Twisted Marine to showcase the ultimate in engineering and design.

SUSTAINABILITY AND ACCESSIBILITY FOR ALL

Sustainability and a reduced environmental impact are also paramount in the philosophy of Archipelago Expedition Yachts. Aluminium has a lower environmental impact than traditional fibreglass, and has the added benefit of being able to be recycled at the end of the vessel’s life. We engineer silent running, with hybrid diesel-electric propulsion as standard. We can harvest rainwater, and use solar for ultimate off-grid living. Expect more... demand more. 

BESPOKE COMMISSION

Everyone’s requirements are different and so, included in the price of every Archipelago Yacht, are a number of hours of naval architecture to allow us to customise to your requirements. 

We love nothing more than working closely with a future owner, and our naval architects, builders and interior specialists to ensure every detail is how you want it to be. We encourage those future owners to visit the build, and have a hands-on experience of seeing their yacht take shape. We are with you every step of the way and approach every yacht as a partnership.

CHARTER OPPORTUNITIES

Our Archipelago 47 is available to charter. She is based in Ocean Village, Southampton and available for either bare-boat or skippered charters. She is coded for diving, fishing, filming, and general leisure use. Please contact us with your requirements.

When Toby Hodges from Yachting World visited our yard he captured the essence of who we are perfectly in his write up “Millbrook – Home of the British Multihull”

They treated the boat as if she was their own

WATER SPRITE – Leopard 48

Peter & Elizabeth Mullins

We were 12 months into our circumnavigation on SV Water Sprite, our Leopard 48 catamaran. We’d left Sydney, Australia in April 2019 and were heading up the Atlantic in early 2020 when COVID hit. We had been aiming for the Med but had to divert to the UK and find a safe haven for ourselves and the boat – thankfully the Multihull Centre was recommended to us.  

Water Sprite had taken quite a hammering coming up the Atlantic, so although we were back in Sydney, the Multihull Marine team organised repairs including replacing (and significantly upgrading) the mast and standing rigging, replacing the rudders and engine mounts. As we worked (remotely) with the team we identified a range of possible improvements which morphed into a significant upgrade and refit for Water Sprite.

The work that has had the biggest impact on life onboard is the electrical refit. Water Sprite now boasts 3.4KW of solar panels – four fixed panels on a newly built solar arch; another 12 flexible panels on the bimini; backed up with 4 lithium ion batteries (1320 Amp hr). This enabled us to ditch the generator, replace the gas cooktop and oven with an induction cooktop and combi oven, plumb in the water maker, and an extra fridge, plus install a washing machine! Getting gas out of the saloon is great and access to creature comforts thanks to the sun has transformed life onboard – and it’s great to be able to say ‘no thanks’ to power plug ins at marinas!  

Because we were remote for 2 years while all this work was undertaken, we had to trust the team with so many decisions – our trust was well founded. The guys designed and delivered an amazing upgrade and took incredible care over every detail. They treated the boat as if she was their own. While no-one wanted COVID, there was a silver lining for us, thanks to the Multihull Centre team, and we’re now taking full advantage of that as we resume our circumnavigation.  

If you would like to talk to us about the refit, and our experience of working with the team at the Multihull Centre, please get in touch.

Dazcats have pulled off 'having their cake & eating it'!

Carly & Dom from Sailing Cadoha  – after sailing on D1495 Hissy Fit

“Many of our preconceptions were smashed in only a few short hours onboard. It was a lot of fun to sail that fast and the boat still be so comfortable. It was clear that so much thought has gone into the design over the years to try and strike the perfect balance between the space many seek on a cat, but also high performance speed and the ability to point so close to the wind still.

It really feels as if you’ve managed to pull off ‘having your cake and eating it’!”

The staff are extremely knowledgeable and happy.

Max Liberson

Multihull Centre customer

“Since I have been down in the Multihull Centre I have noticed what good company Dazcat is. The boats look marvellous and the staff are extremely knowledgeable and happy. It’s something that is noticeable.

John Busby the engineer came on board Trinity (the trimaran I am doing some work on) last week and sorted out the generator that was not starting. He is that last of a long list of engineers that have tried to sort that generator over the last 12 years. He found the source of the trouble that no one else has been able too. Just because he really wanted to fix it and had the patience to wade through a wiring diagram that simplified rather than explained. He found two wires had been connected wrongly from the factory! With people like that working for you I cannot but expect that Dazcat will go from strength to strength, enjoy your success, you are earning it!”

This multi-hull paradise is recommended for anyone visiting this coast.

Editor of the club magazine of the Dutch Multihull Association

“…This multi-hull paradise is recommended for anyone visiting this coast. Even if there’s a danger that you’ll stay longer than you had planned…

We are still down in Millbrook creek. Great to catch a breath and enjoy the multihull scene at MultiMarine and the yard where the Dazcats are built. We got a tour dor Simon Baker along the different sheds and were able to see with our own eyes how craftsmanship and dedication lead to fantastic results. And we also met Darren Newton who is working on some lovely new projects…”

The Dazcat 1295 will do everything we want it to do

Owners of the new build Dazcat 1295 pre-launch July 2022

“The whole family did a secret ballot writing pros and cons between different boats, including monohull. The Dazcat 1295 won hands down.”

Extremely good customer service and expertise

Bennett Allen

Adult and Offshore Programs Director, Sail Maine August 2021

 “Simon and Multimarine have provided extremely good customer service and expertise to  SailMaine since our acquisition of the boat in the Spring of 2020. I have been very impressed with how responsive, supportive, and knowledgeable Simon has been, even though we are not the original owner of the boat. It is clear Multimarine takes pride in their craftsmanship and wants to see their boats sailed well and cared for, period.”

It is difficult to think of anywhere else in the UK with the same facilities and experience for multihulls

Bruce Sutherland, Dazcat owner

“We have always found boatyards to be helpful. What makes the Multihull Centre exceptional is that you don’t just get help from other owners; you get help from craftsmen who have been building, maintaining and sailing multihulls all of their lives. From Striders, Heavenly Twins and Prouts to full carbon AC45’s they have done it all. The [yard] guys are always happy to simply advise or to carry out a full-service repair depending on your budget. With the new boat lift and continuing investments in equipment it is difficult to think of anywhere else in the UK with the same facilities and experience for multihulls.”

The future of sailing

Comfort & Luxury

Eyecat offers everything that a true sailor's heart needs! But it also has all the luxury and comfort for friends and family. So together you can sail over the horizon in style.Why settle for a five star-hotel if you can sleep under a thousand star sky on the open ocean. Imagine waking up on your own boat and fully enjoying a 360 degrees view and fully enjoying all the luxuries you can imagine. With our Sailing Island package you'll have a spacious cabin that can be customised to all your wishes and needs.

Performance

The Eyecat is a catamaran built in aluminium, a material that is the future of boat building. The light weight and strength of aluminium will last longer and is strong enough for off-the-beaten path sailing, giving you a sailing experience as closed to a performance monohull as you can get. We've taken into consideration the environmental challenges of our planet and made the eyecat as future proof as possible without compromising on quality, materials and performance. With two electric motors, an aluminium hull, solar panels and a water maker you can sail with peace of mind on the free energy of the wind.

Adventure & Fun

Most important thing on the water is: enjoying the ultimate feeling of freedom! With your friends and family, surrounded by nature, breaking all the limits.

“After 40 years of sailing in a monohull, I wanted a boat with the same sailing performance, but with more comfort and at the same time a smaller footprint. Eyecat 55 is the result: exploring the world in luxury and in a sustainable way!”

We are Eyecat
