SHEARWATER CATAMARAN
The Worlds First Racing Catamaran
The Spirit of Shearwaters
The Shearwater Fleet has a strong community and family focus, with multiple generations of sailors competing on the water
Built by Brothers,
Developed by Families
The Shearwater Catamaran was first developed by the Prout Brothers in the 1950's who lashed their two kayaks together with bamboo poles, erected a mast and sail, creating one of the very first sailing catamarans.
​
Since then, a lot has changed about the Shearwater.
​
As new generations of Shearwater Sailors have joined the fleet, the boat has continued to evolve and develop into the competitive racing boat we know today.
