Windrush Yachts specialises in yachts (sail or motor), catamarans and motor sport composites. Windrush works in all facets of composite construction including defence, mining, industrial and recreation applications.
We have built a reputation for excellence in design and construction since starting out in the early 1970’s. Some of our in house designed products such as the Windrush 14 (Trac 14) can be found across the globe. We continue to push the boundaries of what is perceived to be possible with sail boats and construction techniques.
The Windrush built Flying Fifteen as well as having the most comfortable deck layout aiding crew endurance is also a multiple world championship winning hull. Available in a variety of laminate specifications to suit all budgets the hulls are extremely stiff and built down the minimum allowable panel weights under the class rules.
In mid 2007 Windrush undertook the construction of a prepreg glass and nomex honeycomb Tornado. The resulting platform is equally as stiff and light as the class leading Marstrom hull built in the aerospace facility in Sweden. Our foils take stiffness and weight to new levels exceeding the stiffness and at a lighter weight than the current class leading foils. The unique design of the centreboard minimises water entrapment in the centreboard case. Our carbon tubing is used for tiller arms, cross bars and tiller extensions across the fleet.
The Windrush built Contender is a light, fast, high performance racing dinghy. It was originally designed by Ben Lexcon in 1967 as a potential successor to the Finn dinghy in the Olympic single handed class of racing. It is suitable for a wide variety of sailors, both male and female in the weight range of 55kg to 95kg and heights from 165cm to 200cm.
The shape of a Windrush manufactured Contender hull is a progression of the Bonezzi hull and is built using vacuum bag fibreglass foam sandwich construction to minimum class rule specifications.
The Windrush built Contender has placed first in world title heats and is sailed by the current world Masters champion.
The Windrush Javelin is a high quality foam sandwich, polyester resin, moulded hull with a full length carbon layer from chine to chine, centre-case and ply inserts to allow fittings to be located to your specification.
The Windrush Javelin has been enthusiastically accepted by the racing fraternity as a benchmark for production Javelin racing dinghies, winning many national titles including two of the last three.
It is available as hull shell only with a center case moulding, a full deck model or full cockpit version. Construction options including full expoxy carbon or prepreg are available.
