Attunga 20

Does anyone know anything about the Attunga 20 catamaran?
Someone thought my cat below might be one, but I have no way to verify.

Hey, captain sure would like to get your input in this thread: Planing Catamaran!
At least it appears to me that your boat has planing hulls. If I'm right, how does she perform against other multies? Maybe you could post your thoughts on the other thread? Thanks and good luck!

There is a photo of Lock Crowther racing his 25ft tri in a race. In the background is a cat that looks like yours. The caption says "Kraken 25 racing an Attunga catamaran."

cheers

This was posted in the Kraken 25 thread. I believe it is the picture Catsketcher is talking about.
Information needed on Kraken 25 or other Kraken

Atunga Cat

I had one until recently. I have a write up on this boat published in Australian Seacraft mag. (April 1964) Also have 'copy' of original plans.
These plans for information only - not for construction.
