• Description

Seller's Description

Shallow draft,fast cruiser, free standing carbon mast, 34 pvc foam and uni directional construction.

Rig and Sails

Auxilary power, accomodations, calculations.

The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.

Classic hull speed formula:

Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL

Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio .311 Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL

Sail Area / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.

SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64) 2/3

• SA : Sail area in square feet, derived by adding the mainsail area to 100% of the foretriangle area (the lateral area above the deck between the mast and the forestay).
• D : Displacement in pounds.

Ballast / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.

Ballast / Displacement * 100

Displacement / Length Ratio

A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.

D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³

• D: Displacement of the boat in pounds.
• LWL: Waterline length in feet

Comfort Ratio

This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.

Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam 1.33 )

• D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
• LOA: Length overall in feet
• Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet

Capsize Screening Formula

This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.

CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)

We spoke with legendary catamaran designer Derek Kelsall. We cover his history and innovations in catamarans design and construction such as the foam coring, KSS. We ask him why his designs and build techniques are so heavily criticized. He talks about what size of a catamaran that a couple or family should purchase and where catamaran design is likely to go in the next decade.

Please find out more about Derek Kelsall on his website . You can email him to ask questions and purchase plans or built kit.

Thanks for joining us, just start by telling us about yourself.

Designing and boat building is my second career. I spent 10 years in survey work and in oil exploration that took me to Kenya, to Libya, and to Texas. It was in Texas that I built my first boat.. When I left school, I wanted to travel. I discovered hitchhiking and went around Europe.

First time I came home with money in my bank, I got a pilot’s license, which didn’t cost that much in that time. 130 pounds I think, but this is going back a long way. I wanted to sail in the Pacific Islands.

I was in the single-handed transatlantic race, which was a spur of the moment decision made in March 1964. It was a very low budget project. I was in the Bahamas at the time, spur of the moment, oh nothing happening here, I’ll go start building a boat and enter the trans-Atlantic race. We had six weeks to build the boat when it started, with three hulls supplied by a company called Cox Marine. Put them together, a standard Fiver, but without this accommodation, and I led the way out of Plymouth Sound.

But a week later, I had run over something at nine knots and broken my transiting weather and the daggerboard. So I was sitting there with no means of steering. I later found out that there was only one man further west than myself and that was Eric Cavalli. He was just five miles ahead of me and Francis Chichester was in second place finishing, and he was on the same longitude as myself, and let’s say it came in seconds. I made up a jury rig, sailed back to Plymouth, did repairs, set out again, and it took me 34 days. Only three men, I think, have done better than that.

Interesting story. So that’s how you got into designing boats?

Yes, that’s the background to it. During the trans-Atlantic Race I’ve met this man, this director of the company in Cornwall. This was a bit of a disaster in some ways. Anyway, they employed me for a few months, or for a few weeks actually, when we found the company was going bankrupt anyway. Eventually I took over the premises and finished some projects which were already in progress. Then I got the chance to build a boat which is my design, to enter the 1966 Round Britain Race.

It was the first foam sandwich, so we’ll be learning as we go, how to handle the foam. The design was very different to anything from before, but now everybody has followed that style, and we just ran away with a rounded race. It was a lovely race, two thousand miles and four harbor stops on the way, around this round island around the Chatham Islands and back into Plymouth. Anyway, we finished a day ahead of everybody else.

Then we got a contract to build a boat for the next single-handed trans-Atlantic race in 1968, both called Sir Thomas Lipton. Sir Thomas Lipton with Jeffrey Williams won the race. This was followed by several other multiples winning the Round Britain Race.

The next really really big one was, we built a boat for the Whitbread Around-the-World Race. This boat finished first around the world, so that was quite a big good start for my boat building career. I never really wanted to build. I wanted to be a designer. But you can get into the starting company to build a particular project, it’s quite hard to get out again.

There’s a lot of information out there on the internet about the Kelsall Swiftsure Sandwich Construction. Can you describe this method of construction?

The way I work, I keep on looking for better ways to do things. The first boat we did was fairly traditional, and we made the framework covered with the foam, fiberglass on the outside, take off the foam, and fiberglass on the inside. We did quite a lot of boats that way.

Then in the early 70s til the mid 70s, had a contract to build 50-foot catamarans, and I built a table that was 60 feet long and about six or eight feet wide. We put those panels on this table, and it just makes sense to be using resin. It’s better to put the resin on a flat surface, and then we can use our latest technology, which is there’s an infusion, so using vacuum to spread the resin, and it all works.

Eventually, you got to the point where every part of the boat could be built as a kitted panel. So on a whole, this ground build was made putting two panels together, leaving off some of the fiberglass, a few dark cuts, and they go into a perfectly fair shape. We’re still improving, still making some improvements, but they are minor now. We’ve been doing it this way for the last thirty years or so. Heavily criticized, yes. By every other designer, actually.

Particularly two or three others, and an incident which sticks in my mind. I had sold a trimaran to an American who was doing business in Houston, England. And yes, he said he would buy this trimaran and he gave me a check. Next morning, he rang up and said he’s sorry, he had had to cancel the check. He met another designer who told him how bad foam sandwich was, so that was the attitude of the few people at that time. A year later, I had one of his boats. He built a foam sandwich finally himself, and it was in my workshop for repairs. That’s kind of the situation I have dealt with quite a lot in my career. Obviously, it is so far ahead of anything else you can do, with designers who will find something to criticize.

Tell us about the KSS 46 design.

This is a design which is fairly standard. A few have been built in Peru by Georgio Balota. Still been building my boats now, for the best part of 15 years, if not more than that. We held the KSS workshops in various places, and he came to one in Texas. That’s the tale, and then he went back where he had a small boat that was in business, and he’s been building my designs ever since. He’s built 58-footers, he’s building a 64-footer now, and he stayed busy ever since. Obviously, the labor cost is fairly attractive in Peru.

What is the most popular design that you sell?

I don’t know actually, probably it is the 46. I probably sold more of those.

My competitors say about KSS, “That’s only for professionals.” But in fact is simply not the case. We get some of the best results from people who’ve never built before.

Anyway, there was a doctor and his wife, a very busy couple, they built their own catamaran in about a year of their mostly spare time. This is fairly typical.

Of course, home building has now gone out of fashion when I started. If you wanted to know how, you built it yourself. Now this policy is quite a lot on the market. One of the basic problems is that everybody claims that they have the best build method. But then other potential builders see how long it really takes, using the more traditional methods, and that kind of kills the market. Unless you can show people that method is really efficient, and now they think we see some ridiculous build time claims for some designs, like a 50-footer.

I know a couple of designers have 50-footers, and they take four thousand, five thousand hours. It was one of these built here in New Zealand, and they took fifteen thousand hours for a professional crew building. So now people find this out half, as they bought the plans, unfortunately. Then they look around and they visit other designs being built, and they will see that those claims are way, way out.

So in your opinion, why are some of your designs heavily criticized, as you said?

Well, basically because the path of the build is so good. Where I’ve looked at is over here: we’re using liquid resins to put it down on the top, that you can do 90% of the laminating on a table. It just makes sense rather than do it over a boat shape, or a hull shape, and then have to do the outside and put a finish on it on the inside.

Of course the big, really big, saving is that each panel comes off the table with a smooth gel coat finish. Because they’re full length panels, they will automatically take a fair line, so you’ve got a no compromise. I’ll shape everything else has a smooth finish, including the top sides of the hulls have a smooth gel coat finish.

Literally, most catamaran designs of at least 45-foot or over, the owners will be using traditional methods to spend four to five thousand hours just producing your thing, which is not a pleasant job, anyway.

I don’t know, I guess I’m not the best salesman in the world when it comes to selling my own prowess.

In your opinion what’s the ideal catamaran size for a couple that’s going cruising?

I think around the 40, 45-foot. My Atlantic sailing was on smaller trimarans. My first major Atlantic storm lasted about three days, not very pleasant. Now, we were running under the bare bones, and that was a trimaran which is far less stable than a 40-foot trimaran would be. I think from that point of view, it couldn’t go any worse. Obviously, size makes it much more comfortable, the size of the boat compared to the size of the waves makes a big difference.

How about the ideal size for a family, do you suggest bigger than the 40 to 45?

Not unless you know the expense is going to go up quite highly. But on the other hand, you know you’ve got a lot of space in there, in those boats. If you’ve got the crew, you can handle them, then go bigger. Maybe you’ve got instances of the 58-footers built in Peru, and the owners have done a lot of things, a lot of miles, to our owners in particular. A 70-footer was built here, I spent some time on that, it’s now in California. We’ve been spending time on the online boat and it was built 20 years ago now, and it’s still sailing today. Now normally you’ll have one or two people, which is key.

To wrap up today, looking ahead the next 10 years, where do you see catamaran construction going?

There will be more and more catamarans, and less and less other yachts. Everywhere here’s super yachts, emotional fishing boats, ferries. We’ve done quite a few ferries. We’ve got a 150-passenger, 82-foot catamaran molds that are being made in in the Philippines at the moment. They’re looking to do eight to ten a year of this particular model. We’ve got a lot in the Philippines, a lot of very old, great plywood boats that have been are operating, where you lose a few each year. I think there’s actually been a law they must replace these wooden boats with a composite boat and this friend of mine, a Frenchman, set up to build in the Philippines.

Derek what’s the best way for viewers watching this episode, if they’re interested in your designs, to find out more information and get in touch with you?

Email, by all means. Any questions far and away, I’m happy to answer. We’ve got study plans, we’ve got a lot of these different designs. We actually welcome customer design as well, adding to our range of boats. There are about 500 different designs over the last 50-odd years that we have designed.

Andrew, and Andrew are both fantastic. Transaction was smooth and professional highly recommend the team over at Multihull.

— Paul Fosler

I just purchased my first large boat (my dreamboat) and Michael Streng and the rest of TMC was amazing! I really felt like I was a VIP customer because they were fast and easy to communicate with and worked ahead of me. It really was a treat and I would use them again any day!

— Collin Simmons

Andrew Hodgdon and The Multihull Company have done an extraordinary job facilitating the sale of our catamaran. There were a couple of challenges (geography and timing) that made this sale a little tricky, but, as usual, Andrew was amazing. I’ve been buying and selling cruising boats for over 12 years and Andrew is, without a doubt, the best broker I’ve worked with.

— Mort Orlov

Andrew Hodgdon at TMC-St. Augustine kept us thoroughly informed during the sale of our boat and took the extra steps necessary to complete the deal. His knowledge of the process made a complex deal very easy. Needless to say, we are extremely happy and satisfied with the job that Andrew did.

— David Baxter

A shout out to Andrew Holland at the TMC main office, who handled the closing transaction of the sale of our boat. Very professional and thorough. Thank you!!

PRICE        $98,000  USD

S/v Florimell is now on the market!  Made in 1969, this beautiful, unique 47’ Kelsall Marin catamaran is in pristine condition.  In 1965 legendary catamaran designer Derek Kelsall started the Kelsall Catamarans design company in Cornwall, United Kingdom and built boats for 20 years, and now, since 1998, they are operating out of New Zealand. These vessels are known to be lightweight and unsinkable. They were built with a formed sandwich with Airex PVC core and glassed in.

This vessel has only had 2 owners. The current owner bought her in 1977 in Plymouth and spent 5 years sailing on and off in the Mediterranean. Then he and his family circumnavigated for 6 years.  After his circumnavigation he has crossed the Atlantic 7 times in both directions in this vessel.  It is a proven seaworthy passage cat and has been regularly maintained with all systems functioning. 

Although s/v Florimell has the perfect layout and sleeping accommodations for chartering, she has never been chartered.  She has 6 sleeping cabins, 2 manual heads and 7.2 ft head room throughout with a 20ft beam, plenty of space and storage. There are 2 showers, one inside and another in the cockpit. The galley is equipped with a 4-burner propane stove with oven, and a very large 12v refrigerator with compressor. The galley water is 12v pressure with 2-foot pumps, one for fresh and one for saltwater. 

S/v Florimell has all you need to go cruising right now.  She has been equipped with 500 watts of solar, a 3000-watt inverter combined with a 100-amp loading system.  She can hold 500L of fresh water over 2 tanks, and she carries 150L of fuel in two tanks.  There is also a water filtration system and a water maker that produces up to 60L per hour.  To get you to shore, there is a 12ft Carib dinghy with 2 outboard motors, an 8hp Mercury and a 5hp.  This vessel comes with the following sails: Main sail, fully battened with lazy jacks, in very good condition and bought new in 2018. The head sail is a Genoa furling, and there is a Staysail furling, self-tacking, and a spare Gennaker 140 sq meters.  The windvane is electric and can switch between autopilot and compass and the vessel has 10 manual winches.

S/v Florimell is powered by 2 well maintained 1980 Bukh diesel engines, model: DV 20 Sail drives. Five years ago, all the sails were replaced and a new water maker installed. All electronics were also replaced and are in excellent condition. This vessel comes with a Raymarine chart plotter, radar, Raymarine VHF radio with AIS, autopilot and epirb. 

If you are looking for a proven seaworthy catamaran, then s/v Florimell is worth a look, she is ready to go now!

As a designer, builder, sailor, and one of the most innovative pioneers in the development of modern multihulls, the late Derek Kelsall left an enduring legacy of experience, style, and groundbreaking ideas.

Kelsall Catamarans, the design company he established in Cornwall, United Kingdom, in 1965, became renowned for its expertise in using PVC foam to produce a wide range of craft.

For 20 years, Derek operated a boat-building company alongside the design firm, creating some of the largest and most advanced multihulls of their time. In 1998, the company relocated to New Zealand, where it continues to operate.

Though Derek Kelsall is no longer with us, his innovative spirit lives on through Kelsall Catamarans.

The company remains dedicated to offering both standard designs from an extensive range of power, sailing, racing, and commercial boats, as well as custom designs tailored to meet specific needs. His vision endures, ensuring that his cutting-edge designs can still be realized today.

Engine Power (STD)

The new generation of catamarans for sailing further, longer, more in tune with the ocean… Available with an internal combustion or electric drivetrain, this model has been designed to offer excellent autonomy for cruising on every ocean. At once seakindly, safe and comfortable, this catamaran thinks big: it will take its crew wherever they want to go.

The New 41 is the perfect blend of elegance, performance and habitability

A true lesson in design: the horizontal lines of this compact  41-footer catamaran  have been stretched to offer levels of harmony and elegance usually only seen on much larger models. This well-canvassed catamaran certainly knows how to lengthen her stride on long passages, while remaining fun and easy to handle close to the shore. The deck layout incorporates the double helm and manoeuvring station so popular on all the other models in the range: the skipper now has a pod housing all the instruments. As for the crew, they will find new areas for relaxation: sun loungers on the bimini and forward of the coachroof, not forgetting the ingenious lounger integrated into the port transom.

Intelligent and ultimate comfort

On board, every space has been thought out and optimised to offer real comfort, both under way and at anchor. The three-window saloon opens completely onto the aft cockpit. A large opening panel acts as a serving hatch between the galley and the forward saloon.

Unique design and incomparable spaces

The New 41 is available in a “maestro” owner’s version: the port hull becomes a genuine suite. The “quatuor” version offers 4 cabins and 2 to 4 bathrooms. In all the cabins, you can enjoy sea views through the large windows and very wide beds thanks to the chines in the hull.

So why build someone else's choice of older design when there is still 80% to go? If any of my friends asked me I would tell them to stay well away. Why build an old and pretty much obselete design when you could build a nice foam Schionning, Grainger, White or similar and get a modern cat with help from an active design studio. Although it is very sad, I would not recommend anyone pick this up. You really need to build a boat within about 4-5 years or the stagnates and impetus goes. Your friend will probably have to give the shell away to get it moved. I think you should let them get ready to be disappointed. cheers Phil 08-02-2023, 10:38   , to the extent you can/could get discounts all over town. Maybe they have a section on their website. There is Craigslist. The boat looks like it is still on forms. If, however, it consists of two completely structurally finished hulls, that are in that position because they were to be joined to the , possibly still in three pieces, then at least it could be moved to a different site by truck. They need to figure out what this thing is. Did the go off on flights of fancy, making all kinds of alterations to the plans, or do we actually have something that has a brand and proven engineering associated with it. A large number of home builders go off on tangents, and these projects can out well, but it really requires them to prove the . If he diverged from plans what was supposed to happen next? It is very tough on a project as it nears completion to face the fact one may have a dud, it really saps confidence, and it hits around the time one has to start pouring in huge dough on , , and , , etc... The work looks pretty nice, but as we into perhaps the worst economy in 100 years, the sellers have to be realistic. I put a deposit on a 37' , that had a custom , and two nice outboards. It was proven, and a KHSD design, the asking was 13.5 K. It was in driveaway condition. That was back in the dip around '09. Prices could get crazy low again. What is the actual objective here? Getting anything like the out of it that was put into it is a 1 in a million shot. I would be looking at a free project, because the person who buys this is probably better off starting afresh. If the owners want to clear the barn to sell the property, or just clear the barn, they should be looking at reducing their disposal costs. There is a guy in NB who is trying to sell a "kit" for a CC32. Cute boat that is a bit like a VAL . All he has is building materials and some vaccum bagged . He wanted 10K ( 7.2 US) last year, but nobody nibbled. You could build a better boat for half that in Cylinder . Basically he wants something close to the cost of the KHSD 37 footer, I passed on (shipping problems), for nothing much more than some plywood and ancient plans. The guy put a lot of effort into a false start, where the person who buys it will be further behind in their project, even though some major steps have been completed. Really important to look at these things from the buyer's side. 08-02-2023, 13:04   Boat: Chris White Voyager 48 group: There are people in the area that have taken on stranger projects. 08-02-2023, 19:16   Boat: Hedley Nicol Vagabond MK2, 37' gives up. On the disposal end you can do a lot with an assortment of saws and a U-Haul truck. A 31 main hull reduced to to flat fills a 16 footer twice ....
