catamaran returning from an atlantic loop of two years, including 2 double cabins, 2 single berths, a large autonomy in electricity and water. its original design allows a height under the helm of 1.85 m, but also a height of 0. 80 m, very rare, which allows a smoother passage in rough seas... Easy to maintain and drive, it allows you to sail far for a budget without equal! Many videos available.
The hull bottoms are made of 18 mm red cedar epoxy sandwich, the sides and the deck are made of epoxy plywood. The live works are shaped. The keels and rudders are made of laminated wood. The profile of the deck and the cabin is designed to reduce drag for upwind sailing. The height under the beams in the saloon is 1.85 meters at the entrance. The height in the hulls is 2.00 meters. The boat measures 12.30 m long and 6.43 m wide.
Weight empty 5.6 T, loaded 7 T The draft is 0.75 m with high keels and 2.00 m with low keels.
The vessel starts sailing at 5 knots of wind. The cabin is 0.80m above the water, thus avoiding the usual bumps like on most catamarans.
