PETER KERR

The 13M Aluminium concept boat (LIZARD OF OZ) was drawn up and built by myself in 1992 for extensive cruising on the east coast of OZ.

Three years later after much interest from the yachting fraternity I decided to market my aluminium design as a KERR 13 metre.

From then on I have built a number of aluminium sailing catamarans ranging from the 13M standard design to the 14.25M and 15M full survey designs. These Cats are now working in Charter in many ports around the globe.

Also a number of my plans both standard and survey have been sold to Australian builders from Cairns in the North to Hobart in the South and Perth in the West, with the builders ranging from amateurs to professionals.      

During the last few years I have Designed and built a 9.5m and 11M strip plank cedar/epoxy sailing cats. Then designed a 7.2M Displaneing Power Cat to prove my Power cat under water shape is acceptable with Low power motors.

From this Proven design I have then designed and built a 7.8M then a 12M Displaneing Power Cat.

All of these designs I have had passed for survey work to the 2C USL code.
