Default Catamaran Schooner?

from SpinSheet;
Peace IV - ''As you can see from her pic, the gaff schooner
catamaran Peace IV is not your typical schooner and is in a
class by herself. Built by her owners of marine plywood,
fiberglass, and West System epoxy in a rented barn on a pig
farm near Bath, Britain, she is a James Wharram Tiki 46
prototype.
Launched in Bristol, England in 2003''
The owners live aboard.

Very cool photo. If those modern fiberglass things

weren't in the way,
this could be a pic of 200 years ago.

The catamaran appears to be like a Wharram design, they

often have sprit
and/or gaff rigs. Did you get a closer shot of it?


Yes, that definitely looks like a Wharram
