1988 Custom Watson 35
Incorporating elements from Dick Newick's famously successful trimarans, Don Watson designed and built Swamp Fox as his personal racer and family cruiser. At the time Don was the head of the building at Concordia Custom Yachts. Following that he went on to have a career as head of the custom shop at New England Boatworks.
This tri has constantly been maintained at the highest level.
