Conser 47 Catamaran
Description
The Conser 47 is a high-performance cruising catamaran designed for speed with reasonable liveaboard comfort. It was designed and built by John Conser (through Conser Catamaran in the USA, primarily in Southern California). John Conser was an accomplished sailor, sailmaker (owner of Windward Custom Sails), and multihull specialist who passed away in 2019. He also designed earlier models like the Warrior 29 and Conser 30 catamarans. Production ran from 1992 to 2002, with a limited number built (often semi-custom or one-off variations). Some examples have been extended (e.g., to 50 feet via transom additions) or used for day charters, such as in Hawaii.
