Wizard
Designed by Richard Woods
A 6.7 m (22 ft) folding trailable catamaran by Richard Woods of Woods Designs with a central cuddy. A lifting hatch and a pop-bottom in the bridgedeck give standing headroom at the galley. Five berths in three cabins including a true double, a separate toilet, 25.8 sq m of sail, about 800 kg empty. Standard hulls are strip cedar with plywood cuddy and cockpit, with foam sandwich or hard-chine plywood as alternatives. One person can unfold and rig it in under an hour.
The folding system and cuddy make this more involved than his open-deck trailables. Woods's minimum is 800 hours to a basic fit out ready to paint for a practised builder, so budget 1,000 to 1,600 for a first multihull. Real hours from logged builds are below.
What building a Wizard actually takes
Medians from the build logs kept on this site, not the designer’s estimate. Nobody has logged this boat here yet, so they are empty until the first builder does.
Those medians firm up as more people log this boat.
