Craig Warner Posted July 25, 2005 Report Share Posted July 25, 2005 Does anybody know much about the Hawke Catamaran? - have found one at a really reasonable price, seems in good condition, just want a bit of advice on how they sail and if they are a good boat!!

Darryl J Barrett Posted July 26, 2005 Report Share Posted July 26, 2005 small, slow, spade rudders respond poorly. spend as much time swimming as sailing at times, BUT good fun for the kids. built during the 70's as a competitor to the windrush 12' surf cat, used a lot as hire cats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig Warner Posted July 26, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2005 Im just getting into catamarans and do not have much money to start with - hence looking at this one, would this be a good boat to learn on - or am I wasting my time? Seems a really good deal, good condition, main sail and jib, new tramp and fully registered trailer all for $300 - what do you think? My idea was to start with something like this and if I really get the bug upgrade in about a years time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bridgehugger Posted July 26, 2005 Report Share Posted July 26, 2005 Go for it, I bought a 4.3 no name cat about a year ago that was cheap and it has been great. I have since bought a Maricat, but I still sail the no name it's all fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
