- Description:
The Dazcat D12 is a sleek sports cruiser, with Dazcat trademark attractive curves. The low windage bridgedeck cabin roof extends far aft port and starboard, protecting a central open cockpit. The cockpit can be covered with a low canopy when desired. Twin steering locations provide very good control and visability. Control lines all lead back to the helm, allowing the boat to be sailed single-handed
There is also an open deck version (Dazcat ODC12) and a full bridgedeck version (Dazcat 12M) of the Dazcat 12. The design can be fully customized to order, and kits for home completion can be supplied.
The Dazcat 12 is a European RCD (Recreational Craft Directive) Category A vessel.
