Itcombines a stable, traditional, affordable sailboat design used in the United Statesfor over 150 years with modern innovations in rigging, sail, hull, and cabindesign.The D-Cat was made for the lakes and coast and River.We had to consider in the design. First above all we wanted a stable boat so a numberof people could ride on it in comfort and safety. Our design is buoyant andsafe.  The D-Cat is very shallow with the centerboard up, but with the centerboarddown it is over four feet deep and very stable.-We wanted a mast that could be lowered easily because we need to go under bridgeson the canals, and a simple sailing rig for easy use and control of the sail.-We wanted a well-designed cabin that could sleep four in the Cruiser and two inthe Day Sailer.  And we wanted an area that could accommodate a cooking unit, anicebox, a sink, and an enclosed toilet for privacy.  The D-Cat 18 line fulfillsall these conditions.  The D-Cat  is not as big, but is one of the most affordable"Pocket Yachts" in the world.
