Apycat 56

Yachting on two hulls

This new powercat unveiled by an Italian brand renowned for its three ranges of luxury motorboats - walk-around, motoryacht and flybridge - clearly demonstrates the interest of manufacturers and, of course, their customers in the power catamaran sector.

The exercise, in terms of design, technical choices and layouts, is an interesting one, as these “traditional” yachting specialists seek to innovate by integrating two hulls, while defending their vision of motorboating. As a result, the lines of the Apycat 56 remain very clean - the builder called on the services of Pininfarina and De Simoni Yacht Design, if you please... The Apycat's relatively narrow beam is complemented by an attractive owner's cabin, which occupies the full 23 feet (7 m) available forward. The flybridge is home to a spacious sundeck, wet bar and helm station.
