The Shearwater catamaran is one of the UK’s most enduring and technically progressive multihull classes. First designed in 1956, the Shearwater celebrates its 70th year as a class, from cold-moulded timber to today’s full carbon, foam-cored epoxy structures.

That evolution continues with the latest Shearwater racing catamaran built by Zest Boatworks, under the direction of owner and boatbuilder Pete Jary. Built using advanced composite materials from Gurit, the boat represents the cutting edge of Shearwater design while remaining firmly rooted in the class’s rich heritage.

The unfinished boat will be on display at the RYA Dinghy and Watersports Show 2026 on 21-22 February, offering a rare opportunity to see the structure and materials behind a modern high-performance racing catamaran.
