Isotope and Cheshire Catamarans
Rigged, sailed, righted by one person.
Quality. Our two sailing cats, the Isotope and the Cheshire, are built per order so that each boat is what the owner wishes within class specifications. Our crafts are manufactured with reinforced molded fiberglass hulls and equipped with the best marine hardware. The thoughtful design and workmanship assures the owner’s satisfaction and earns the boats the reputation of being the “Smart Cats.”
Both the Isotope and the Cheshire have Sharp’s Righting Bar™ to enable one person to right the boat while in the water.
Sharp’s Telescoping Tiller with Tiller Return™ is available for purchase.
Each year the Carolina Sailing Club (CSC) sponsors the North Carolina Governor’s Cup Regatta at Kerr Lake, one of the largest and oldest inland-water regattas in the United States. The Isotope class has won the race many times – twice with IFG owner Frank Meldau at the tiller. Go to CSC for an events calendar and regatta reports.
