2018 Buyer's guide: Motor multihulls up to 69'

NEW-Bavaria Nautitech 47 Power

After the new version of the Nautitech Open40 discovered at Cannes, Bavaria Catamarans is continuing to renew its Nautitech range by offering a brand new boat, the very first motor catamaran from Nautitech, the Power 47. This catamaran is fast, with a top speed of 22 knots, but is also capable of a good range, with 1,000 miles at 9 knots. Aboard it’s of course the quality of life which prevails, with the saloon-cockpit area on the same level; the hydraulic platform allows the dinghy to be stowed easily and once at anchor will be an area for enjoying the sea. Finally there is the flybridge and the forward saloon, cozy areas which will delight the guests. See it at Düsseldorf.

NEW-Range 38 Power Trimaran

Eco Trekker was designed by Kurt Hugues for a couple of kayaking enthusiasts looking for a boat which would allow them to practice their passion… This 38-foot trimaran can be propelled by one or two outboards of up to 15 hp. With this propulsion, the tri will reach a top speed of 12 knots, but above all will have a range of almost 3,000 miles at 5 knots. Exceptional! The designer has even planned the possibility of adding a sport cat rig to increase the range still further. Inside, we find real accommodation, with two double cabins, a galley a saloon and a heads. The perfect ‘raid’ machine to discover the world peacefully!

NEW-Solarwave 64

Discovered at the last Multihull Boat Show at La Grande Motte last April, then at the Cannes show, the Solarwave 64 really impressed the visitors.
