Sun Cat
Clark Mills wanted to design a shoal daysailer
that would rig and sail easily, quickly, and comfortably - as well as
accommodate his family and friends. The Sun Cat was designed as an easily
driven, roomy day boat and overnighter with a shoal draft to gunk hole
along coasts and in harbors not accessible to more burdensome yachts.
Outfitted with the Mastendr™ quick rig sailing system and stainless
steel centerboard / trunk (as installed on her little sister the Picnic
Cat), the Sun Cat will provide convenient trailering and maintenance-free
enjoyment. Individuals who appreciate timeless design and quality fabrication,
who wish to explore coastal waters and quiet creeks, and who demand
value from a yacht, will warmly relate to the
"new tradition" that the Sun Cat
brings.
