Aug 28, 2000 . Perry Design Review: PDQ 36. You will note as you study multihulled craft that the proportions can and will vary just as much as they do in monohulls. We have fat and heavy monohulls and we have ultralights. The designer must choose a balance of performance and accommodations that suits the particular sailor he is designing for.
Beam: 18'3"

Jun 12, 2009 . When I took posession of my PDQ 34, we removed the striping for personal reasons having to do with color. This included the stripes on the cowling including the PDQ Yachts Logo. We replaced the striping without the logo. Last year when visiting Pierson Composites, I found that they had a new logo decal.

PDQ Yachts was established in 1987 To build sailing catamarans and their very well established 44 Antares model has been a major success but in 2001 The company created their first power cat; the 34. The 34 continues but now, several successful years later, PDQ Yachts has introduced the 41 Power Catamaran and it is quite a remarkable vessel indeed.
The 34 continues but now, several successful years later, PDQ Yachts has introduced the 41 Power Catamaran and it is quite a remarkable vessel indeed. The boat is priced and sold in fully equipped form at $650,000 US and in our opinion, that is a comparative bargain. From tip to tail, this cat is 41 feet but like Garfield, it's a beamy brute.
This is a boat that will take you through the Great Loop and the Islands comfortably and with ease. The PDQ 34 makes going through locks a joy. That's because its side walkways are wide enough to allow 2 people to pass one another easily. As for grab rails, they're everywhere.
Measuring 18 feet wide, the PDQ 41 compares in beam to yachts in the 50 to 60 foot range. Then, from the PDQ sailing heritage comes a dedication to light weight, even when that demands more expensive materials. The PDQ 41 is in the vicinity of 26,800 lbs.
