78′ Long Range Power Catamaran – Design #258
This concept design ticks all the boxes in terms of an easily driven, long-range power vessel. Kind of a no-brainer to choose the multihull configuration for this mode of cruising as the power required is relatively low and thus extended passages are readily achievable.
As this concept design has stalled and the engineering details are on hold for the moment the general arrangement shown can be interpreted according to personal experience and tastes. We are actively engaging with interested parties to continue the development of this design.
Please contact us for further information on this design or to ascertain how the base platform can be modified to suit your own requirements.
