The coolest new catamaran models and concepts

Sam Fortescue reveals the latest multihulls to make a splash and takes a look at what’s on the designers’ drawing boards

Sunreef 43m Eco

LOA 42.7m Beam 15.4m Power 2 x 200kW Passengers 12 guests, 7 crew

Polish catamaran builder Sunreef has just sold another 43M Eco – the second largest sailing cat in the world. This is hull No 2, and will feature the same innovative 60kW solar array as the first example. Solar cells are integrated into every surface of the hull, superstructure and rig to give it impressive range under electric propulsion and almost limitless power for domestic comfort. The boat has an invisible drop-down aft garage for toys, fold-down wings on the quarter and a vast beach club, which combine to form what Sunreef has dubbed the Ocean Lounge. A gym with a view is built into the starboard quarter, and there’s a huge flybridge and room for 12 guests below. 

BlackCat 36m

LOA 36m Beam 13.7m Draught 1.60-4.90m Passengers 8 guests, 4 crew

Designer Malcolm McKeon and BlackCat founder Mitch Booth have been busy creating a super-sleek new 36-metre catamaran concept for a specific owner, and are now offering it alongside its other models in the 30- to 50-metre range. There’s barely a straight line on board; everything is curved and ergonomic – what Italian design is to furniture, so BlackCat is to catamarans. Compared to other BlackCats, there is perhaps a little extra height in the superstructure, plus solar panels and drop-down bulwarks aft. Naturally, it is a full-carbon build with performance to match – this one is predicted to sail at up to 30 knots, setting 650 square metres of carbon sails on its 45-metre rotating mast. Retractable rudders and daggerboards promise tight wind angles and upwind speed as well as access to shallow waters. Electric propulsion and up to 50kW regeneration capacity will minimise fuel burn. There are four double cabins for eight guests. The boat would be built at Baltic Yachts with BlackCat consulting. 

Echo Yachts 56m

LOA 56m Beam 15.5m Passengers 16 guests, 14 crew

Echo Yachts has come up with a beast of a catamaran design that blurs the line between support mothership and boat. This 56-metre is designed around helicopter operations, with two landing spots and room for two aircraft in the hangar. That gives it the capacity to carry three helicopters, as well as a range of large tenders up to around 11 metres and numerous other toys. Not that guest-level comfort has been neglected: there’s a spa pool on the foredeck, a private aft deck lounge and a huge beach club based around the drop-down platform. The interior is 100 per cent customisable, and can be skewed towards crew accommodation or even scientific, humanitarian or special interest facilities.

Alva Yachts Ocean Eco 90 H2

LOA 27.5m Beam 13.98m Draught 1.2m Power 2 x 250kW

Alva Yachts is building the world’s first 27.5-metre fossil-fuel-free catamaran. The Ocean Eco 90 H2 will run off two electric motors connected to a 500kWh-plus battery pack, powered by the sun via 200 square metres of solar panelling. It will also be fitted with Ayro’s Oceanwings with sensors on the wingsails. Wind data will be analysed by a computer that will adjust the wingsails’ angle of attack and camber. “This project would not be possible without our classification partner DNV, which has established new ground rules because this has never been done before,” says Holger Henn, CEO of the German builder. 

McConaghy MC115

LOA 35m Beam 12.5m Draught 1.8m (centreboards up)

Composite wizard McConaghy has given us an exclusive preview of a new 35-metre catamaran that is still at the design stage. Intended to bridge the gap between production and superyacht sectors, it is even more customisable than the yard’s smaller models. It features wide side decks and an open flybridge with an enclosed helm station forward, at the mast foot.

With sail controls concentrated above, the main deck is devoted to socialising, with a huge hydraulic bathing platform aft. The master suite is positioned forward on the main deck, giving it access to a foredeck lounge with a spa pool – a departure for this performance-focused brand. Accommodation is for 12 guests in six cabins, supported by a crew of four. But the precise configuration is infinitely adaptable. This should be a rapid boat, courtesy of slick naval architecture by Ker and a high-tech composite build. “The MC115 is a wind-speed yacht, and with true wind speed of 20 knots and the boat at 100 degrees, she will comfortably achieve 21 knots,” says managing director Mark Evans. 

LOA 36.75m Beam 13.85m Draught 2m Power 2 x 340hp e-motors

Flagships on this scale don’t come quickly, and especially not when they keep growing. What began as a 30-metre now surpasses 36 metres, with its electric drives and helicopter landing pad covered with retractable solar panels. To keep us hooked as the 2024 launch date draws closer, Silent Yachts has released details of a specially adapted submersible and quadcopter designed to match the yacht. U-Boat Worx is behind the two-person Nemo sub, which can dive to 100 metres. And the aircraft is an adaptation of VRCO’s XP4, due for regulatory approval in 2024. Billed as the “supercar of the skies”, it has vertical take off and landing capabilities and room for four passengers. Both are electric and will be recharged from the Silent 120’s vast battery bank. 

WiderCat 92

LOA 28.04m Beam 12m Power 2 x 420kW electric motors Top speed 15 knots Passengers 8 guests, 4 crew

As we reported back in November, Wider has sold five of its 28-metre WiderCats so far, and the first hulls have now left the moulds in Ancona. Late on a midwinter’s night, the two halves of the boat were transported 20 kilometres by road at painstaking speed to Wider’s new building halls at Fano. They will first be joined, then united with the deck and superstructure, which are already moulded. Painting comes next, followed by the complex systems that lie behind this advanced diesel-electric hybrid. The build is on track to debut at Cannes in September. 

Lazzara LPC 85

LOA 25.9m Beam 10.6m Power 2 x 550 - 1,800hp Top speed 20 knots Passengers 10 guests, 5 crew

Following the delivery of its UHV 87 model, shown at Cannes in 2022, and the launch of an express cruiser in its LSX series, Lazzara Yachts is expanding its offering with a catamaran line. The flagship 26-metre cat, built in GRP, will house a giant saloon that occupies the entire main deck – with the focus entirely on entertainment. The owner’s suite is a marvel – filling the 10-metre beam of the lower deck, with fold-down balconies on either side. Four more guest doubles have been designed with semi-open bathrooms, to transmit the light from the hull windows. Outside space is epic, with a vast beach club, elegant main deck dining and an expansive flybridge with a spa pool. While impressively styled, these are production yachts, with choices very much circumscribed. 

VisionF 100

LOA 30.5m Beam 12m Power 4 x Volvo Penta IPS 1050 3,200hp Top speed 22 knots

In just four years of operation, Turkish yard VisionF has already launched several 24-metre aluminium catamarans, and now it has sold a 30.5-metre cat. Built entirely in robust Kevlar composite, it should be incredibly stiff and strong. But relaxing is the name of the game here. There’s a glass-bottomed pool on the foredeck, fold-down wing balconies and a large, open flybridge. At the stern is deep hydraulic platform designed so that it either massively extends the aft deck or provides a huge beach club area. Besides the 100-square-metre saloon there is room on the main deck for a large forward-facing owner’s cabin. Up to six comfortable en suite cabins can be fitted into the two hulls. Delivery is scheduled for 2025. 

Lagoon Seventy 7

LOA 23.25m Beam 11m Power 2 x 175hp diesel Passengers up to 10 guests + 2 crew

While Lagoon is better known for its smaller sailing cats, its Seventy 7 is a semi-custom exception with more of a superyacht mentality. And its latest commission is an intriguing mix of sailing and gaming. Currently in build, the boat has an elegant dedicated cinema in the starboard hull with 7.1 surround sound and a pull-down screen integrated into the headlining. Another owner request was that the LED-lit gaming tower should be made a feature of the boat, and so it is – placed by the stairs so the lights can be seen from the cockpit. Next to the cinema is a workshop, where the owner can work on his drones.

Even without customisation, the Seventy 7 is a spacious, capable cruising cat. There’s the option of a spa pool on its flybridge, which also offers informal dining, an L-shaped sofa, a grill and a fridge. The helm station naturally lies at the forward end of this space, where all the lines come back to a battery of hefty winches. The foredeck lounge has direct access inside via a sea-tight door. And uniquely, the master cabin has a balcony door with a built-in bathing ladder for direct access to the water. Grey D4 Vectran sails from Incidence complement a dark grey hull, while the interior plays on primary colours. 

Art Explorer

The build of the groundbreaking 46-metre Art Explorer catamaran is continuing apace at The Italian Sea Group , with delivery expected in September. “She will be one of the largest luxury catamarans in the world when she is delivered, a testament to the vision, energy and leadership of its protagonist, Frederic Jousset,” says Laurent Bredy, head of project management for Fraser, of the yacht’s French owner. It was designed by Axel de Beaufort and Guillaume Verdier, with carbon mast and boom by Lorima. She will act as a floating gallery that will sail around the world, taking art to people who wouldn’t otherwise have access to it. 

Fountaine Pajot 80

LOA 23.98m Beam 11.09m Power 2 x 175hp Passengers 12 guests, 5 crew

Building a 24-metre was a big step up for French production yard Fountaine Pajot , so it has sought naval architect Olivier Racoupeau ’s help to add some big-boat sparkle. He’s brought ideas such as drop-down bulwarks that create a port and starboard lounging area at anchor, a spa pool set into the bow, where you can bathe and admire the waves sliding by, a well-equipped flybridge and epic toy storage. The overhangs are set with semi-transparent solar cells and the interior by Isabelle Racoupeau is about unostentatious luxury. There’s also room for up to six double cabins.

LOA 26.82m Beam 11.1m Power 2 x 170hp Yanmar Passengers 10 guests, 4 crew

Speed has always been the essence of HH Catamarans, but a new flagship is hoping to inject a bigger dose of comfort into these carbon-fibre fliers. Choose between a sleek flybridge or the racy pod helm stations that barely protrude above the coachroof. Up to 10 guests are supported by four crew, making charter an option. But make no mistake: even with self-tacking jibs and lots of lounging space, these remain exhilaratingly fast boats capable of near-wind speed into the low-20 knot zone. The first hull is launching now. 

Prestige M8

LOA 19.82m Beam 8.85m Power 2 x Volvo Penta D8 600hp Top speed 20 knots

A new flagship is on the drawing board at Franco-Italian builder Prestige, which has found a niche in high-quality series production. The 20-metre M8 power cat is said to have lower fuel consumption thanks to efficient design, and a 15-knot cruising speed. A full-beam owner’s cabin forms a lower half-deck forward, with space for up to four further guest cabins. A vast saloon with extensive glazing and stainless-steel detailing gives the feeling of a sophisticated apartment. There’s also a flybridge and a foredeck lounge. It should be at Cannes this year. 

Reinvigorated under French ownership, Gunboat has just unveiled a flexible new 21-metre model. The spec can be varied on a scale that runs from fast cruiser to seat-of-the-pants rocket ship, with two rig choices. The mast has been moved aft for a bigger self-tacking J2 sail and a high-aspect main. There’s no flybridge – just an aerodynamic coachroof that has been enlarged to take more solar panels. The saloon is bigger too, and the accommodation is flexible. 

Nemesis 60ft

The team behind the outrageous 101-metre Nemesis One foiling catamaran concept have somehow raised the stakes a notch or two further with a design that will hit 150 knots. This will be a 20-metre power boat on hydrofoils, capable of accommodating six guests and three crew. Initial drawings resemble something out of Star Wars – all stealth angles in jet black. The contract is already in place for the design and build, according to Nemesis.

Bluegame BGM75

LOA 22.7m Beam 8.15m Power 2 x IPS Volvo Penta D8 550 hp Top speed 20 knots

Bluegame's first ever multihull offering was revealed to the world at the Cannes Yachting Festival in 2022. The 22.7-metre design retains the appearance of a monohull with the benefits of a catamaran – stability, volume and improved fuel consumption. Its hull form means the BGM75 requires 50 per cent less power than a monohull of the same volume, while generating 5kW of green energy thanks to 56 solar panels that can be installed on the deckhouse. Design comes from Bernardo Zuccon and Piero Lisson, working on a hull form that was developed as the hydrogen-powered chase boat for the America’s Cup.

In Croatia, the presence of catamarans is primarily felt in charter fleets, and they represent the most attractive part of the charter market. The largest among them exceed in price and dimensions many luxury yachts available for charter in Croatia .

Luxury Power Catamarans

Sunreef 80 / eco yacht / 80 power.

Modern design, luxurious interiors and ambition to guarantee their clients a relaxing cruising experience have helped Sunreef win the hearts of boaters and the industry in a short time. Their Sunreef 80 is a prime example of their approach to sailing. Impressive hulls and a carefully designed superstructure connected to the main deck allowed the designers to create a generous interior. As fast and fun as it is, this model is still best known for her interior: 340 square meters of living space, in five cabins for 11 people.

The bow terrace is spacious, the aft platform turns into a beach club, and the fly bridge is large and so attractive you’ll have trouble getting off of it: as if a fantastic view, an al fresco bar and a galley were not enough, there is an option of installing a jacuzzi and hammock. Sunreef 80 is available with a variety of customization options, but in every version, the master cabin has a private pull-out terrace.

The Eco version has most of the hull covered with solar panels, that generate 32 kW of electricity for the electric engines. The interior can be sustainable in terms of fabrics and materials, which gives this luxury yacht a whole new dimension. Particularly interesting is the Power 80 Eco, which allows speed freaks to quench their thirst in the most environmentally responsible way imaginable.

On this truly eco-avant-garde luxury catamaran, the air conditioning system is powered by direct current, as is the production and purification of water. The best version of the model has the master cabin in the bow, with an en suite and amazing sea views. The propulsion ranges from between 2 x 575 to 2 x 1200 hp, with a fuel tank of 8000 l.

Lagoon seventy 7, sixty 5, seventy 8.

With the largest and most luxurious model, Seventy 7, Lagoon have not only jumped to the very top of the market, but also offered the level of comfort we can without hesitation consider to be the culmination of the yachting experience in the SuperCat segment. With her impressive 23 meters of length, she could have been significantly less graceful in her shape, and considering her interior volume, it’s a miracle she’s this elegant and harmonious.

The huge salon has several zones; a corner for the skipper, a lounge, a dining room, all of them gathered around the central mast. The bow sundeck and crew cabins are both more generous than on most other models in the segment, and the master is absolutely sensational, fully independent and equipped with a glass frame that descends via hydraulics rising to become a spectacular private terrace.

With a maximum of 2 x 230 hp and 2800-liter fuel tank, this cat is safe to sail even without the wind, but still has a 205-square meter mainsail. Her two generators combining a total of 46 kW supply electricity to all systems. The fly is accessible via winding stairs, and large enough to install optionals like a jacuzzi or a sunbed. We took Sixty 5 for a two-day trip in the waters around the island of Šolta , and she had us fully convinced of her luxury.

The interiors were slightly more compact, but still sufficient for ocean adventures. Lagoon Seventy 8 Power raises everything on a new level, and guarantees elegant performance and up to 19 knots of speed (with 2 x 580-hp engines) and range up to roughly 4000 nm. Available with a five-cabin layout, this cat has large beds, plenty of storage space and en-suites in all versions.

The interior is huge and airy, the view stretches across 360 degrees and this supercat sleeps 16 adventurers ready to take a long cruiser around the world.

Charter the Lagoon Sixty 7 Today

Lagoon Sixty 7

The luxury catamaran Lagoon SIXTY 7 is a brand-new power catamaran ideal for exclusive family or friends group charter, considering her outstanding living spaces that accommodate up to 8 guests easily.

Fountaine Pajot Alegria 67

Fountaine Pajot will soon celebrate half a century of production of top catamarans, and their current largest model is Alegria 67. Modern and rounded bow, voluminous stern and fly, and large glazed surfaces reveal the French have placed special attention to charm, as they usually do. Different from what one might expect, FP 67 is a successful attempt to redefine life on 20-meter long multi-hull boats.

The options are many, but the one we particularly like has a galley in the left hull, and four cabins with en suites. Owners can choose the six-cabin charter version, or the master version, with a large master and two guest cabins, as well as a cabin for a small crew. In the interior, especially in the salon, the designers made an effort to make everything look more luxurious than usual, using variety of high-quality materials and fabrics.

Two large sectionals seat 12, while the galley is next to the bow exit. Fountaine Pajot have build their reputation on top performance, but the flagship of this series boasts attractive interiors to boot

Privilège Signature 650

Privilège catamarans have been present on the market for almost forty years, but it seems that the acquisition by the Hanse Group launched them into the trend-setting group. Their new Privilège Signature 650 aspires to be among the leading luxury catamarans in her segment, which is not an easy task. Slightly curved fly carriers, panoramic windows and portholes are just some of the modern details on this brand new model.

The standard layout includes a large owner’s suite with an en suite, as well as three guest cabins. Our favorite layout places the galley below deck, allowing the cockpit to grow to unbelievable dimensions. By connecting the tables and the large L-shaped sofas that accommodate up to 12 people this space can be converted into a large sunbed.

The aft platform is able to lift a tender or jet-ski up to 600 kg, in addition to allowing swimmers easy and safe access to the water. The fly deck is accessible from the cockpit or via a starboard staircase, and the central U-shaped sofa and the adjacent table offer a great spot to socialize, especially when covered with a bimini. Two rudder seats provide the skipper with excellent visibility, and give everyone aboard a unique view.

It can be used for a wide variety of applications on any type of vessel.   The SC30 comes with a compact GPS antenna and built-in processor. This all-in-one system delivers incredibly accurate heading and roll & pitch information as well as heaving information, GPS position, SOG (Speed Over Ground), COG (Course Over Ground) and ROT (Rate Of Turn) data.   Employing a two-antenna system with a 3-axis gyro and acceleration sensors, the SC30 enables high-speed response capability. Advanced digital signal processing techniques compute accurate heading based on sensor data. NMEA2000 interface is standard for simple installation, while the optional interface unit IF-NMEASC is available for conventional NMEA0183, AD10 and contact closure.   Revolutionary 2-antenna and rate sensor system In order to calculate roll & pitch data, a satellite compass requires two vectors. The new SC30 employs a 2-antenna system that calculates a single vector while a 3-axis rate gyro and acceleration sensors add the 2nd vector. This configuration enables the SC30 to calculate highly accurate roll and pitch data without using a third sensor. The SC30 employs the LAMBDA algorithm developed by Prof. Teussen, Delft University of Technology, The Netherlands.   Standard Features: Stylish design to complement the appearance of recreational boats All-in-on system for simple, space-saving installation Heading accuracy of 1.0 degrees Short start-up time of 3 minutes Excellent follow-up rate of 45 degrees/second exceeds requirement for high speed craft Free from regular maintenance NMEA2000 interface standard Power Supply: 12-24VDC   (f) Autopilot (Optional Extra) FURUNO’s NavPilot 700 a revolutionary autopilot with a sunlight viewable display designed for a variety of vessels. It utilizes a self-learning and adaptive software algorithm, and plays the ultimate role in course-keeping capability. NavPilot dynamically adjusts essential parameters during navigation, such as vessel speed, trim, draught, tide and wind effects, dead band, weather and more. These parameters are stored in system memory and continuously optimized to make the NavPilot more versatile.   Self-learning and adaptive software   From the first dock-side setup through the last voyage you made, NavPilot continues to learn your vessel's steering characteristics, allowing for real-time, dynamic adjustments to make the boat's steering more accurate.   SAFE HELM and POWER ASSIST features provide Efficient and Effective Helm Steering Control   The optional SAFE HELM and POWER ASSIST features provide a unique interface to the vessel's hydraulic hand steering system, providing unrivaled comfort and control of steering directly from any manual helm on the vessel. These two modes greatly reduce steering effort and enhance the safety of your autopilot.   The POWER ASSIST mode incorporates the SAFE HELM concept and provides speed-based, power assisted steering, which greatly reduces manual helm effort in maneuvering situations. POWER ASSIST is a unique helm-activated assisted steering feature that can augment or replace separate electric and power-robbing, engine-driven power steering systems on many vessels. POWER ASSIST reduces steering system complexity and costs while increasing economy.   SAFE HELM and POWER ASSIST modes will require the optional FPS8 Power Steering Module and an appropriate HRP Pumpset.   If you are interested in utilizing the “SAFE HELM” and “POWER ASSIST” features, it is highly recommend that, when installing the NavPilot 700 Series Autopilot, the optional FPS8 Power Steering Module is purchased and installed at the same time. This will eliminate the need to re-plumb the hydraulic system and run additional connection cables in the future.   FishHunter mode FishHunter mode is a unique feature of FURUNO’s NavPilot series. Find a fish target with your FURUNO sonar/sounder or bird target with your FURUNO radar and feed it to the NavPilot The NavPilot will activate the FishHunter mode to perform square, zigzag, circle, orbit, spiral or figure-eight maneuvers around the specified target at a user selected distance.

20-meters custom made sailing cat

• Make: Custom
• Model: Catamaran D-666
• Length: 20.117 m
• Max Draft: 2.7 meters
• Condition: New
• Location: Italy
• Hull Material: Aluminium
• Number of Engines: 2
• Fuel Type: Diesel

Introducing the “Diabolo D-666”

The catamaran D-666 is a 66ft. long sailing cat completely built of aluminum. Originated by the intuition of an Italian designer and his father as the shipyard and ship owner of the prototype which is still under construction. D-666 has taken shape thanks to the genius of the architect of his son, manager of a well known design office.

The innovation used by the designes is represented by the materials utilized and by all the relative technical and functional applications. These guarantee maximum handling and sea keeping with dynamic characteristics and top acceleration. Moreover, thanks to the dual engine (2x Yanmar 110hp SD) and the two centreboards, the craft proves to be of excellent performance.

An extremely important detail for sea lovers is security. It is indeed a factor of great importance and covers two different fundamental aspects. First of all, the so called passive security, D-666’s structure which renders it practically “unsinkable” complete with 4 watertight compartments for each hull as well as the use of two lifeboats with crew access even in the case of an overturned boat and in case of emergency with the aid of 2 skegs which reach shallow water in complete security. The second aspect is the active security, guaranteed be the simplicity of manouvering the boat assured by a well protected bridge and by cockpit counter manouvers on 5 winches.

This project yacht is still open for your very personal touch and interior design wishes. Just tell us you dreams and we make them happen…

The Power Catamaran Compilation

• By Yachting Staff
• Updated: December 21, 2018

Power Catamarans have been growing leaps and bounds in popularity, and, in lengths and widths. And for good reason. These cruise-centric yachts offer homelike livability for avid travelers, are fuel efficient and are fairly intuitive to run. Power cats are popular in the bareboat charter market too, for these very reasons.

Here, we take a look at 12 catamarans ranging from a cruising-couple-size 36-footer to a 78-footer for friends, family and some more friends. And there are myriad power options: outboards, diesel inboards, hybrid or even all-solar power.

Fountaine Pajot MY44

The Fountaine Pajot MY44 , a creation of Italian architect Pierangelo Andreani and French designer Daniel Andrieu, has a main deck that’s open from the aft-deck seating all the way forward to the starboard helm station. The sense of spaciousness is significant, for several reasons. First, four glass panels aft can all slide to port, creating an indoor-outdoor space with the aft deck and salon. In the salon, 32-inch-high windows extend for 12 feet down the sides of the yacht, with three sections per side, bringing in natural light along with the three forward panes that comprise the windshield. Finally, 6-foot-6-inch headroom provides vertical clearance, with a 21-foot-7-inch beam that adds interior roominess while keeping the yacht stable.

Silent-Yachts 55

The ideas about which solar panels, electric motors, inverters and the like to use — and more importantly, Michael Köhler says, how to configure them — became the basis for the brand Silent-Yachts. The company offers 55-, 64- and 79-foot catamarans that run on solar-electric propulsion. The Silent 55 premiered this fall, and the 64 is sold out for the next two years, Köhler says.

Horizon PC74

As founder and director of The Powercat Company, a Horizon Power Catamarans distributor, Stuart Hegerstrom had long believed that catamaran builders needed to design their yachts to more stylish standards.

“The boats were very boxy,” he says, based on his years of experience with cats in the charter market. He and his partner, Richard Ford, asked Horizon to produce models that had high-end finishes and looked good inside and out.

The Horizon team brought in mega-yacht designer JC Espinosa to work with its own craftsmen. The result aboard the Horizon PC74 is a catamaran with exterior styling, layout and functionality that should appeal to private and charter owners alike.

The Aquila 36 is a departure from her sisterships in that she is an outboard-powered, express-cruiser-style catamaran, but she also adheres to MarineMax’s philosophies.

With a single main living level from bow to stern and a beam of 14 feet 7 inches, the Aquila 36 is like a bowrider on steroids. She has seating that can handle 20 adults for outings and barbecues, and there are two staterooms below, one in each hull, for family weekending. The staterooms have nearly queen-size berths, en suite heads, stowage and 6-foot-6-inch headroom.

Lagoon Seventy 8 Powercat

Lagoon is a division of Groupe Beneteau, the world’s largest builder of sailing yachts, and the Lagoon Seventy 8 Powercat is a developmental sistership of its Seventy 7 super sailing cat. The Seventy series yachts are built at Construction Navale Bordeaux in France, which had to add a new yard to construct these catamarans because they require separate stern molds for the power and sail versions.

Horizon PC60

To understand the Horizon PC60 power catamaran , you need to put aside preconceived notions about midsize yacht amenities. For example, main-deck master suites are the province of yachts over 100 feet length overall. Incorrect. This 60-footer has an elegant and spacious owner’s stateroom on the same level as the salon. If you want a 14-foot center console tender on a 60-foot yacht, you have to tow it. Wrong again. On the PC60, you hoist it onto the upper deck, no problem.

40 Open Sunreef Power

Sunreef is known for pushing the boundaries of catamaran design, incorporating four adjustable hydrofoils into a twin-hulled speedboat.

The Polish builder is one of several European builders (including Evo, Fjord, Wider and Wally) transforming the open ­day-boat category with creative designs. ­Beyond its hydrofoils, the 40 Open Sunreef Power ‘s cockpit has side “wings” along the aft gunwales that fold out at anchor, widening the beam from 17 feet to 22 feet 9 inches.

Sunreef 50 Amber Limited Edition

Sunreef Yachts introduced its 50 Amber Limited Edition , with plans to launch just 10 hulls of the exclusive design.

The Sunreef 50 Amber Limited Edition will have a carbon fiber mast and boom, four layout options and numerous amber-colored elements, including the hull.

Lagoon 630 Motor Yacht

Fitted with the optional twin 300-horsepower Volvo Penta D4 diesels, the Lagoon 630 MY burns only 1.64 gph total at 6 knots, giving a theoretical range of 2,952 nautical miles with standard tankage of 793 gallons. Hull No. 1 had an optional 502-gallon tank, giving it transatlantic range.

Luxury, stability and economy are all hallmarks of Lagoon’s return to luxury motor yachts. If you can take a ride, it will be worth your time.

Read more: Lagoon 630 Motor Yacht

Fountaine Pajot MY 37

The Fountaine Pajot MY 37 easily accommodates the seafaring family with three- and four-stateroom options. In the three-cabin version, called ­Maestro, you’ll find an owner’s suite in the portside hull with a queen-size berth and en suite head. Two double-berth cabins and one more head are available for the kids. If your brood is bigger, the Quator setup features four double cabins with two heads.

The 37 is a traveler and can be powered with twin 150 hp or 220 hp Volvo Penta diesels. Top speed with the smaller engines is 17 knots, while it’s 20 knots with the bigger power plants. Interestingly, at 7 knots, the fuel consumption is the same, with either set of motors offering voyagers a 1 ,000-nm range.

Solarwave 64

Many yachts boast eco chops because they have a handful of solar panels that power the microwave or navigation lights. The Solarwave 64 , launched last summer, has the potential to run on sunshine alone. The vessel’s 42 solar panels generate 15 kW that are stored in batteries weighing about 1,300 pounds. They connect to electric motors.

Glider SS18

This British builder says it strives for design innovation and the Glider SS18 displays that DNA, the result of 8 years of research and development. She has a head-turning, catamaran hull form constructed from aluminum and composite materials. She is 60 feet LOA with a 17-foot beam, and has a relatively shallow 1-foot draft. Powered by quad Yamaha 300 hp outboards, she can reportedly reach 50 knots, and with her Stability Control System (SCS), should give a smooth ride while doing it.

Island Guardian – 20 Metre High Speed Landing Craft

Island Guardian  is a custom-designed and built 20 Metre High Speed Landing Craft  built for the Great Barrier Reef Joint Field Management Program.

The vessel is a multi-purpose platform designed to perform a range of tasks including patrol operations, dive support operations, marine infrastructure installation and maintenance (eg moorings and signs), and island park management (camp grounds, walking tracks, weed management).

A key capability is a 7-tonne capacity cargo deck with the ability to load and unload 4WD vehicles, side by side vehicles, small excavators, posi-track machines, small tractors from boat ramps and beaches of varying gradients in challenging sea conditions.

Design was by Incat Crowther and features a wave piercing hull design, propeller tunnels to achieve low draft, and a forward nacelle to combat heavy sea states associated with prevalent south-east trade winds.

The vessel is required to operate independently for up to 10 days away from port in remote offshore reef areas with up to 7 persons onboard, and has a range of 500 nautical miles.  Day trips can accommodate up to 24 persons.

This is Norman R. Wright & Sons’ third alloy catamaran vessel delivered for the Program in the last 4 years, with previous vessels being the 24m Patrol Vessel Reef Resilience and the 17m Patrol Vessel Tamoya .

This net-zero boat could revolutionize maritime travel

A boat pulled into Boston's Rowes Wharf recently that's unlike any other vessel in the world. Its name is the Energy Observer, and it's been traveling the globe for seven years using only renewable power to spread the word of sustainability on the sea.

The vessel is a demonstration project backed by a French hydrogen energy company and supported by many other tech companies in the renewable energy field. It set sail in 2017 and has been at sea ever since.

Probably the most striking thing about the catamaran-hulled boat that stretches 100 feet from bow to stern is that it's coated in solar panels.

View this post on Instagram A post shared by GBH News (@gbhnews)

The vessel's crew, including onboard climate scientist Beatrice Cordiano, recently gave GBH News a tour.

“So, if you want to follow me, as you can see, one of the sources of energy that we use are the solar panels,” Cordiano said as she walked over some of the hundreds of panels covering the boat. “We have covered the entire boat with different technologies.”

Those solar panels charge up lithium batteries, which provide short-term storage for the power that drives the vessel's electric motors.

“And then we have — which is the masterpiece of this boat — hydrogen, which is the long-term storage,” she said. “So, we produce hydrogen on board.”

As Cordiano explained, they suck up sea water, run it through a system to desalinize it, and then use a device called an electrolyzer to separate water into its two parts: hydrogen and oxygen. That hydrogen is stored in tanks on both the port and starboard sides of the boat, and can be run through a fuel cell to be turned back into electricity when they need it.

Mélanie de Groot van Embden is the Energy Observer's onboard reporter, sharing the story of this carbon-free vessel.

“The maritime industry is very polluting for our oceans. And 90% of the goods we consume are being transported with cargo ships,” de Groot van Embden said. “And at the moment, they are still in majority using marine diesel oil, which accounts for 3% of our emissions in the world. So, we really want to raise awareness for that and show that there are solutions, that the technologies are mature, that they just need to be scaled up.”

Since its launch, the boat has traveled widely to spread that message.

“We went to Hawaii. We went to New Caledonia. We went to Indonesia, Singapore, Vietnam, Malaysia, India, South Africa, Brazil and now the United States,” de Groot van Embden said.

They even sailed in the Arctic, to show that its technologies could work in extreme temperatures. The boat has been well received in every port, de Groot van Embden said.

“The U.S. has always been the most enthusiastic about our technology, even though you're also the second-most emitter in the world,” she said. “So it's always a little contradictory.”

The Energy Observer also uses wind power, but it doesn't use traditional sails. It was the first vessel to pioneer a technology called “ocean wings.”

Onboard engineer Luc Bourserie hit a switch and two wings raised up vertically from the boat like towers, 10 meters — or about 33 feet — high. They're fully automated to capture wind no matter what direction the boat is headed, he said. And they're easy to use.

“So, even if you have rough weather coming, you can put them down quite quickly and easy,” Bourserie said.

Because of their design, ocean wings are about twice as efficient as traditional sails, Bourserie said, and their rectangular profile doesn't cast much shadow on the solar panels beneath.

That forward motion under sail can also be turned back into electricity, similar to how a hybrid vehicle uses its momentum when breaking to recharge its batteries.

“ We can also use the speed of the boat that we have, thanks to the wind, to put our propellers in reverse mode and produce electricity from the speed, making the motors [act like] generators,” he said.

Bourserie sees some hope in the news last year that a cargo ship from Singapore was retrofitted with ocean wings, significantly cutting its fuel use. Some of the technologies on the Energy Observer aren't commercially viable yet, but the point of the vessel, Bourserie said, is to test them out.

“Let's not wait to be too late to develop these solutions,” he said.

The Energy Observer set sail again last week, and the crew plans to make it across the Atlantic to be back home in Paris in time for the Olympics there in July. It's an opportunity, for once, when the world comes to them.
