Platt-Form Wakeless Catamaran Launch
  • *
  • Platt-Form 19 shown above. These handy catamarans are changing the way on-water coaching is conducted. No longer do you have to choose between speed, wakeless performance, and maneuvering: Platt-Form boats have all three.
    ** Available in Fiberglass, Wood, or Advanced Composite construction. *
    * Right-Click image to "save as" for printing out or retaining. **
  • ** A number of scullers have reported that the Platt-Form 19 leaves the least wake on the river-even less than the "Stillwater" designs.

    ** Coaches have found the design superior for the following points:
    --upright position and stable platform allows for more coaching vantage points. You can stand, walk around, kneel--watch your crew from any angle.
    --console has convenient dry space for megaphone, clipboard, coffee, etc.
    --compact and manuverable enough to handle crew changes, rescue, and working in tight quarters.
    --large reserve buoyancy for emergencies.
    --self-bailing deck.

    **We offer the Platt-Form catamaran in an infinite variety of configurations and sizes to suit your needs.
