In addition to its HH sailing range, the Hudson shipyard also offers power catamarans under the name of Hudson Powercat.
While the silhouette of earlier models differed markedly from the sailing range, this is no longer the case with the elegant Hudson 47, which features inverted bows and a rounded coachroof top. As for the hulls, we’re dealing with some heavyweight stuff: like those of the freshly announced Hudson 63, they are signed by Stimson Marine Design and use the same CFD tools as those on the America’s Cup AC75s, no less! Inside, there's a large interior helm station with an attractive two-seater helm chair, and the owner’s suite takes its place in the starboard hull. A third 52-foot model is due to be presented shortly.
