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.

Read more: Horizon PC74

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.

Read more: Lagoon Seventy 8 Powercat

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.

Read more: 40 Open Sunreef Power

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.

Read more: Sunreef 50 Amber Limited Edition

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.

Read more: Fountaine Pajot MY 37

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.

Read more: Solarwave 64

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.

BOAT REVIEW Wright 52 Powercat

• Quality of cabins and interiors
• Large single-level cockpit and saloon
• Low fuel consumption

Stepping onto the transom and into the cockpit of the Wright 52 is a boater’s dream: broad, deep, flat and safe.

The rear cockpit area is fisherman’s heaven and an entertainer’s delight – it is the perfect platform to spend as much time as possible living your dream.

The physics Choosing a catamaran often comes down to aesthetics, and at times it should. It has been said that ‘cats don’t pound, they just ride soft’. But to ignore the physics of a power catamaran misses the point of a ‘cat’. Catamarans have two slim hulls, pushing less water than a single deep-V hull. These slender hulls possess very different hydrodynamics compared to traditional monohull designs, with the catamaran being more ‘slippery’ (less wetted surface and therefore less water resistance), allowing it to run faster for a given amount of power.

These fundamental physics mean that the catamaran hull slices through the sea as its sharp edges enter a wave. This breaks up the waves and makes for a softer entry into a head sea. The same can be said in a quartering sea, too, with the bow of a catamaran entering the sea one sponson at a time, which splits the waves for a smoother entry and a gentle landing.

The Wright Effect Catamarans are nothing new. They have been around since the first Pacific wayfinders started to explore the oceans. Catamarans are wide, stable and lighter than an equivalent-length monohulls. The righting moment on a catamaran is greater than a V-hull, improving stability, and with the engines farther apart, cats are more maneuverable at low speeds, spinning easily.

The ride The bow of the Wright 52 does not ‘jump out of the hole’ like a deep-V hull design. Instead, the semi-displacement vessel emerges from the water, feeling like it wants to fly. The hulls are designed so that trim tabs or interceptors are not required. The acceleration felt controlled whilst still pushing the skipper into the back of the helm seat. Whether accelerating from a standing start, or from a cruise speed of 18 knots to wide-open-throttle (28-29knots), which only took 11 seconds, conning the boat was fun and addictive.

Moving around Catamarans are known for excellent close-quarter maneuvering. The Wright 52 is the perfect showcase for this feature. Fitting into most standard width single hull berths (yes, you read that correctly – a catamaran berth is not required for the Wright 52), the boat turns quickly with its twin engines, helped along by twin bow and twin stern thrusters.

Sheer comfort The Wright 52’s interior exudes sheer comfort, usability, and Kiwi boat-building craft. The rear cockpit is enormous and features a live-bait tank, freshwater sink, and a 49-litre Isotherm fridge. There are also two sizeable lazerette storage areas under the flooring and excellent access to the engines and electrical systems. The decks are teak-lined throughout. To starboard of the main door is a full-sized day head that could easily accommodate a hot water shower. The cockpit overhang ceiling houses a large fishing rod locker which, when closed, is completely hidden. The rear window opens to connect interior and exterior dining spaces.

Fit and finish The test boat’s finish was excellent. The team at K2 has focused on soundproofing across all internal areas, which was evident on test day – we could talk normally whilst underway, despite all the windows being open. There was little engine or hull noise to speak of. The port hull has a rear cabin with twin single berths, a forward double cabin, a well-appointed wet room, and a head and shower. The storage underneath the forward cabin is vast, and the storage forward of the cabin in the bow is also enormous. The black taps were a nice touch.

Living the dream The Wright 52 is well appointed boat. The hull performance is excellent – a testament to those involved in her design and engineering set-up. The boat inspired confidence, at anchor and underway. Combined with the layout and top-quality finish throughout, the Wright 52 will make any owner feel like they are living the dream. On test day, tucked into the northeastern cliffs of Waiheke Island, we were asking ourselves whether we had time to nip over to Great Barrier Island for the afternoon. We didn’t, but the boat was keen!

She feels really easy and comfortable to sail, even in a good breeze and a chop.

Caribbean 32 FB

With classic styling, good performance and class-leading ride and handling, there’s a lot to like about the Caribbean 32.

Seawind 1370

Solar panels on the vast roof help keep the batteries charged.

Sessa Yacht Line C47

Sessa vessels have a CE CLASS B rating – certified offshore to 200 miles, for winds up to force 8, and waves up to up to four metres high. Very capable, therefore.

20m Performance Sailing Catamaran

Carbon high performance cruising cat.

This 20m resin infused all carbon high performance cruising cat ‘Kotuku’ was commissioned by an Auckland based client and built in Auckland by a team of highly skilled boat builders led by Jon Douglas.

The cat features a rotating carbon wing mast which was part of the 'no compromise' design package put together by a team led by RHYD that included top in the world in their field of foil design, mechanical engineering, composite engineering, rig and sail design.

The design has proved to be an outstanding performer in competitive fleet racing in the New Zealand multihull fleet. On the race track boat speed regularly exceeds true wind speed and sailing to windward the boat also exhibits zero leeway thanks to the asymmetric foil package.

It's a phenonemon of these design that they easily achieve the same height as a TP52, but at twice the speed.

Below decks, and alongside the high performance, comes a live aboard pacakge with no compromise for comfort and livability, set up for long range cruising.
