Robert B. Harris
From Wikipedia the free encyclopedia
Robert B. Harris (born 1922[1]- died 2014) was an American multihull sailboat designer.
Career[edit]
He first became interested in multihulls after seeing a 40-foot catamaran in Hawaii, built by Alfred Kumalai and Rudy Choy.[2]
The first catamaran I saw was from Hawaii. Man, this thing was fast!
