Our Story
Kinetic Catamarans was founded in 2018 and has established itself as a creator of innovative, quality performance catamarans. A US company with its yard based in Knysna, South Africa, Kinetic is a joint venture between Bob Hayward; a successful US real estate developer and entrepreneur and Leon Scheepers; a highly respected South African boatbuilder with vast experience and knowledge in multihull production. Both are keen sailors and passionate about the boating industry, as well as committed to improving it.
Our Vision
Kinetic is focused on delivering luxury performance cruising catamarans of the highest quality and reliability.
Our Philosophy
Time on the water is precious and needs to be enjoyed.
We embrace the weight savings and strength of all-carbon construction to provide exciting catamarans for fun fast sailing and comfortable worldwide cruising.
Our boats have performance carbon rigs and sail plans yet are set up for short-handed sailing. Only leading equipment, suppliers, and technology partners are used. Attention to detail is ingrained and after-sales support is key. We reduce the complexities of owning boats of this sophistication through quality, reliability, and support, allowing you to enjoy trouble-free time on the water.

Our Team
We are a dynamic, cohesive, and multifaceted team working towards a common goal: producing exciting world-class catamarans to your exacting requirements.
