Cat boat launches hope for future fleet

The Dignity is launched

(CNS): The first catboat built from scratch in the Cayman Islands in more than 20 years was launched from behind the Catboat Club in George Town on Easter Monday. The Dignity was designed, crafted and built by Jerris Miller and his son NJ with the help of Kenny Ebanks and has already raised thousands of dollars for charity. Although commissioned by a private individual, it will form part of what Miller hopes will become a fleet of the traditional vessels that can reinvigorate the building and sailing of these traditional Caymanian boats.
