VPLP 80 foot racing catmaran with the ability to fit a comfortbale interior if the cruising need is there. This is a RACE WINNER and has a well proven racetrack record. Selling for a 1/4 of build cost
She can sail on one hull thanks to large asymmetric boards and T-foil rudders, while weight-saving was pushed to the extreme to enhance her performance. Indeed, the Gunboat 80 weighs only 28 tonnes!
She quickly accelerates to 14–15 knots in moderate winds and, in a fresh breeze on a flat sea, she can almost hit 30 knots. The Gunboat 80 is aimed at owners in the USA, the Caribbean or the Mediterranean who enjoy racing with friends and spending a week cruising with the family.
