In the Navis family, here’s the 45, the first in a range that includes two cruising boats (the 50 that we’ve already introduced and the 60) as well as the 70, dedicated to day-chartering.
Thanks to its construction in flat infused sandwich panels, the Navis 45 boasts a number of qualities and advantages - for a start, this catamaran requires no molds... in fact, the 45 is very stiff, light in weight, and lends itself perfectly to customization. In this context, it would be a shame to overload this multihull, whose slender bows and aft-set nacelle reflect an obvious effort to optimize performance. There’s no doubt about it, the Navis 45 will do just fine in light airs... provided it is decently equipped.
