Pre-owned boats
Due to popular request we now offer this page for those who want to buy and sell their multihull. This web site is seen by thousands of people every month who are specifically interested in sailing catamarans, so it makes sense to advertise here and reach serious potential buyers.
A quote from someone who listed their boat with me: "He paid the price I was asking which I'm pleased about. I only had the boat advertised on your site and was getting an average of about one email a week. I originally thought it could take 2years to sell, what with the economic climate and all. Also it is an unusual boat but it does attract a lot of attention."
"These adverts clearly get viewed by enthusiasts. We needed a quick sale and this advert generated interest from 3 parties in the first week. John (Belfast)"
The cost to advertise your Woods Design is £50 and the advert will run until sold. Please use the button below to order an advert
Or the cost is £75 if it is a non Woods Design boat. Again, the advert will run until sold. Please use the button below to order an advert

Elf Catamaran built 2019
Oran Mara - Woods Elf 26 - Built 2019 – Ashore at Ardfern Yacht Centre, Argyll, Scotland
£25,000
Oran Mara is the most recent updated design by Richard Woods and was professionally built by Elf Catamaran SRL in 2019 to Richard Woods specification. She was rigged and fitted out by Ardfern Yacht Centre in Argyll, Scotland, and has been cruised occasionally and day-sailed on the west coast of Scotland.
The Elf has a large open deck with accommodation for four. The high-roach mainsail offers an easily managed but powerful rig with slab-reefing, assisted by lazy-jacks and bag. Roller reefing controls the genoa, and there is no need to leave the cockpit for reefing either sail.
The low aspect ratio keels have a draught of 0.65m and allow access to many shallower anchorages and easy beaching.
A Yamaha 9.9hp outboard (long shaft) is fixed to the centre of the aft cross beam and provides ample power.
The boat is suitable for short / single-handed sailing. She is stable, light, very responsive on the helm, fast, and points high for a catamaran. In moderate winds, speeds of 10knts are easily reached. The accommodation and equipment are suitable for short cruises and day sailing.
Hulls and Decks
The hulls are hand laid up in GRP to Woods Designs specified layup with white gelcoat finish. The hull topsides and decks are of sandwich construction using PVC contour foam. The gelcoat, resin, glass fibre and foam used are Lloyd’s certificated.
Hulls
There is a single berth with stowage beneath at each end of each hull. There are 4 single berth cushions with covers, a chemical toilet in the starboard hull, and a draining wash basin.

Sails (by Boatshed Wales)
The mainsail is fully battened with adjustable tensioners at the luff end. Two deep slab reefs are fitted and the sail is lowered into a bag guided by lazy-jacks.
The mainsheet traveller extends widely across the stern and can be used to flatten the sail in stronger winds before reefing. A kicking strap is also provided to help flatten the sail and control the boom.
The genoa is hoisted with an external halyard on Plastimo roller reefing gear controlled by a line leading to the port mast beam and a cleat. The sheets are led to an adjustable track on the cockpit floor to Barton winches on each side and secured on cleats.
Sail and fender lockers are built into the mast beam.
Electrics
Two x 12v batteries in the port side mast beam locker. These are charged automatically by the engine and by a small solar panel on the port side mast beam locker. One battery serves the engine starter, the other supplies all navigation lights, depth sounder, cabin lights, fixed VHF radio, the autopilot, charging sockets and 2 x bilge pumps. The switch panel is fixed inside the port hull by the companionway.
There are two electric bilge pumps, one in each hull, connected to roving hoses that can be used wherever needed.
The Lofrans Dorado anchor winch is supplied by the domestic battery and has its own control unit and circuit breaker in the port mast beam cockpit locker.
Ground Tackle
There are 2 anchors. The bower anchor has 30meters of 6mm chain spiced to 30 meters of multi-plait rope. It is lowered and recovered using the electric anchor winch, or by hand.
The second anchor is a CQR pattern and provided with a rope cable only.
Instruments
A portable Silva steering compass is provided. Compass holders are fixed to each hull by the main hatches, allowing the helm to move the compass on each tack to see the heading.
A depth sounder is fixed to the mast beam underneath the mast foot, and the transponder is fixed to the port hull skin, ahead of the forward berth.
A wind direction indicator is fitted to the mast head.
VHF Radio
An ICOM fixed DSC VHF radio is fitted under the switch panel in the port hull.
Tiller Pilot
The Autohelm 2000 tiller pilot is fixed to a bracket on the port hull connected to a waterproof socket inboard. The pilot can be controlled with the remote control from either hull.
Accommodation
There are 2 berths in each hull, with storage lockers underneath the mattresses, and in the port hull forward berth, there are additional storage nets.
USB charging points and reading lights are fixed next to each berth.
A chemical toilet is provided in the starboard hull.
There is a sink / stove to the side of the worktop. Gas is piped to the burner. Water is not plumbed to the sink but a drain is fitted and empties above the waterline. Water containers are stowed on deck and at the head of the port aft berth for ready use.
In the port hull, a folding table is fitted for chart work and / or food preparation / dining. Food and crockery stowage is under the worktop.
Strike 18 in Florida
Living in Florida, I chose to build the open deck version of the Strike 18.
As advertised, this boat is light and nimble, making it a joy for single handed sailing. The boat has seen three sailing seasons only on fresh water. With low aspect ratio keels, sailing where dagger boards fear to go is not a problem, as well as easy beaching.
The boat has plenty of room for you and a few of your friends. An extra storage compartment was built into the rear of the main hull.
The outriggers are Quattro 16 amas built for this boat. The entire boat was built new using Okoume marine plywood, Douglas fir solid framing. All plywood surfaces covered with 7 oz. Fibre Glast fiberglass and epoxy.
The spars and rigging were designed and built by US Spars. The sails, supplied by UK Sailmakers have standard rigging. The main sail 150 S.F., the jib 50 S.F.
The boat includes a Suzuki 2.5 H.P. four stroke outboard motor. The boat is trailered on a Magic Tilt aluminum trailer.
The boat is located in Tallahassee, Florida.
Asking price $15,000 O.B.O.

Swingcat an Eclipse 32 - Price reduction!
Swing Cat is a performance cruising catamaran with a bridgedeck. It is a Richard Woods Eclipse design measuring 9.9m in length and 5.9m on the beam. It is built of solid wood and marine plywood and sheathed in biaxial glass fibre cloth impregnated with West-system epoxy resin. The performance aspect of the boat comes from having daggerboards (rather than low aspect ratio keels), outboard motors for auxiliary power (rather than two inboard engines) and laminated tri-radial sails including a drifter (on a bowsprit) and a spinnaker.
Swing Cat has beaching keels and kick-up rudders so is happy drying out in tidal creeks. Its wind generator and 6 solar panels charge 500Ah of battery storage which provides electrical energy via 12V DC and 240V AC distribution. One can live off the grid with a high level of creature comforts while remaining connected to the shore via computers and mobile phones (if desired!).
When on shore power in a marina, full use can be made of a microwave, toaster, electric kettle and electric heating.
The interior accommodation consists of a double cabin in the stern of each hull and single cabins in the bow of each hull, giving sleeping accommodation for 6. The bridgedeck cabin provides comfortable seating around a large table and access to both hulls. A cockpit awning, together with cockpit cushions, provide further shady seating in the cockpit as well as shelter from any shower. The trampoline forward of the bridgedeck, between the hulls, is a favourite place for sunbathing, watching the sun go down, or for watching dolphins on passage.
The hulls and cabins are fully lined and insulated ensuring a cool interior on hot days and a cosy interior on cool days. When at anchor on cold evenings a wood burning stove is available.
Swing Cat is designed to have minimal impact on the environment. The sources of renewable energy means there is no need to have a fossil fuel generator. There is an electric motor for the tender.
There is no discharge of sewerage from the boat and no conventional holding tank. An ecological toilet ensures the separation of liquids from solids with both being captured, and disposed of, separately. The absence of urine in the solids tank, together with the use of mechanical ventilation, ensures that using the heads is a pleasant experience!
Swing Cat also has a grey water tank for cruising in environmentally sensitive areas. This tank retains washing-up and shower water until it is OK to discharge it – for example when dried out on a beach, grey water can be discharged only when the tide is in and the boat is afloat.
With forward-looking sonar, broadband radar, AIS Tx & Rx, VHF radio, Echomax radar reflector, electronic chart plotter, full size chart table and safety equipment, including lightning protection, Swing Cat is fully equipped for creek crawling or bluewater sailing.
Swing Cat was built by its owner starting in 2011 and was launched in 2016. The website documenting the build and its sea trials can be found at www.swingcat.co.uk . The reason for the sale is that the owner and his family no longer have as much time for sailing as they did previously.

Built by Palamos in 1988 Vixen is a standard Strider, that is to say she has daggerboards and a narrow deck (not up to the mast like the Club Strider.) There are also running backstays. She has had Bowmar hatches fitted to the coachroofs making the hulls much lighter inside.
Since 2000 when I bought the boat she has had new sails (the headsail is only 2years old) new standing rigging, new tramps, new rudders and a new 4hp Mercury four stroke outboard. There are two GPS one built in and working with the digital VHF. The other hand held GPS has fittings on the cabin so that it can be moved to whichever side the helmsman is sitting. Vixen was raced seriously in her earlier life, I have been gradually developing her as a cruising boat.
The price includes an excellent purpose built road trailer which has had new springs and brakes fitted and is ready to tow anywhere. The boat can be delivered anywhere in the UK within reason.
