Description: Blyth 17m Series
The Blyth 17m Workcat is their new flagship, and builds on the considerable experience and proven success of the Company gained over the last 23 years. The existing range of 10m, 11m, 12m and 14m Blyth Workcats has given excellent service in a wide variety of uses and environments. The 17m Blyth Workcat is built in single piece mould to ensure exceptional strength and laminate reliability. Blyth�s specialist composite construction is state-of-the-art and guarantees maximum quality control. All Blyth 17m workcats benefit from construction specifications, layup, scantlings and engineering details approval by MECAL or other Certification Authorities. All Blyth 17m workcats enjoy a complete audit history of essential criteria and come with a detailed technical file. Blyth Workcats Ltd works in association with Dr. John Bate of JB Marine Consultancy to achieve approval of Standards Authorities such as MCA, Seafish, Irish Transport Department and (most recently) the Belgium Maritime Inspectorate. Blyth 17m Workcat performance offers legendary Blyth safety, stability, speed and seaworthiness. Blyth�s catamaran hulls have low drag so fuel economy is superior to that of similar sized monohulls at similar speeds. Maneuverability, both at low and high speed and in deep or shallow water, is also exceptional. The Blyth 17m has been developed with choice in mind and includes tooling provision for either conventional shaft drive or water jet options.
