Four Winns TH36

A surprise powercat at Cannes!

We've known for a few months now that the Four Winns brand, based in Cadillac, Michigan, USA, have been preparing their very first powercat... but apart from a few sketches, the project seemed to be much less advanced than the Prestige M48. It seems that the Bénéteau Group, owner of the two brands, wanted to make an impression, as the TH36 came as a real surprise guest at the Cannes Yachting Festival.

Of course, the motor catamaran on display was still purely a prototype, and we’re still a way off seeing the final product – but if we wait a few more weeks, we should be able to try it out. We note the hull signed by Marc Lombard, the design by the Garroni Design studio (bravo for the elegantly suspended hard-top) and the outboard drivetrain featuring twin 300 or 350 HP motors: the TH36 looks like it’s going to be sporty! But the deck is also perfect for relaxation, with modular sunbathing areas, an outdoor galley, and two double cabins.
