The Witness 35 is a performanceoriented cruising catamaran that emerged during the early 1980s, a period when the multihull market was still transitioning from experimental racing designs to established offshore cruisers. Designed by the renowned Australian naval architect Lock Crowther, the Witness 35 was primarily built by Witness Catamarans in the United States, with production roots in Texas and Florida. Unlike the heavier, more voluminous catamarans of the same era—such as those from Prout—the Witness 35 prioritized sailing efficiency and windward ability through a relatively slender hull form and the inclusion of twin daggerboards. This design philosophy aimed to provide a "sailor's catamaran" that balanced liveaboard capacity with the highperformance DNA of Crowther’s racing background.
