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

    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

    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.
