About Catamaran Yachts

• POWER CATAMARANS

A visceral sailing experience

Sailing Catamarans: Sailing Catamarans make great cruising and bluewater boats.

Although the principles of sailing are the same for both catamarans and monohulls, there are some enormous advantages to safety and comfort for sailing catamarans.

One of the biggest developments over the last decade in the yachting arena has been the rise of the super catamaran: a multihull over 100 feet in length. The emergence of the super or mega catamaran is a relatively new event affiliated to the rise of the mega or super yacht, used to describe the huge growth in luxurious, large motor yachts on the French Riviera, Caribbean and Floridian Coast.

• Level sailing gives greater comfort and is less tiring
• The danger of falling overboard on a catamaran is considerably less than on a monohull
• It seems that you do the same activities whether you are at anchor, sailing, or motoring
• With a catamaran's level sailing, seasickness is reduced significantly
• A very valuable yet seldom talked about benefit is no rolling in an anchorage
• You don't have to put away everything every time you start sailing
• The draft on catamaran varies from 1 to 4 feet depending on whether it has mini-keels or dagger boards
• 360 degree view you have from most catamaran bridge decks
• Onboard a catamaran you remain informally connected to the world outside
• Galley Up layouts make provisioning, serving and cleaning just steps from the cockpit instead of many unsafe trips up and down the companionway; even when in the galley the cook is still part of the party.
• Because of the large wide deck areas there is a real feeling of space when outside
• When sailing with three or more people catamarans offer much more privacy as the two hulls, and the suites and heads within them, are far away from each other
• Catamarans are faster than monohulls and can avoid most serious weather and, at worst, place itself in a more favorable position to avoid the brunt of a storm
• Catamarans are superior to monohulls in terms of redundancy due to twin engines and twin rudders
• Better dinghy storage on davits between hulls as well as safer access to the dinghy and watersports

Power Catamarans: A recent development in recreational catamaran history and design has been the introduction of the power catamaran. The 'power' version incorporates the best features of a motor yacht and combines it with the characteristics of a multihull. The hulls below the waterline are typically planning hulls instead of their sailing counterparts that are standard displacement.

Usually, the power catamaran is devoid of any sailing apparatus as demonstrated by some of the top-selling models like the CUMBERLAND 47LC, Lagoon Power 43, Leopard 47PC and the Journey 47LRC to mention a few.

• They are very fuel efficient due to less wetted surface with the smaller sized engines to a comparable sized motor yacht and a wider stable platform.
• The incredible smooth ride and extended range
• Fishing is very comfortable and the ability to back down and maneuver to the fish is easier and faster
• They are much better than a monohull in a following sea, as a mono will plow into the front wave as they come down, then turn or pitch-pull when they plow into this next wave.
• Power cats are more buoyant in the bow making them more relaxing to drive in a following sea.
• Better maneuverability in harbor

Commercial vessels have utilized the power catamaran’s advantages for many years:

Since the 1970s, the length of catamarans increased from some 20 m to catamarans up to 115 m long. The High-speed Stena HSS is the world's largest fast ferry, traveling at a speed of 46 mph, although it is capable of doing over 70 mph. This is not new technology.

SAILING CATAMARANS FOR SALE

Without question, the sailing catamaran is the most active category of pleasure boat today, with a growing number of builders using fresh designs from a variety of naval architects. In the past decade, the sailing cat has gone from somewhat of an oddity to fully mainstream, as the benefits of the catamaran concept eventually lures traditional sailors away from the teak interiors and heeling in a monohull. Those new to sailing and cruising have no predetermined opinions, so are easily convinced of the advantages of a sailing cat, not having any familiarity of the issues associated with the catamaran’s early history.

There are no less than 20 builders of sailing catamarans around the world, and it is quite difficult to distinguish one from another at a boat show, where they take up significant real estate. Global catamaran builders now include Seawind, Leopard, St. Francis, Majestic, Knysna, Kinetic, Maverick, Antares, Lagoon, Discovery, Catania, Outremer, Nautitech, Fountaine Pajot, Balance, Bali, and Xquisite. There are also many custom yards, such as Alwoplast in Chile, that build custom cats to the designs of Chris White and Malcolm Tennant. It is an understatement to say the sailing catamaran has come of age.

The wide beam of the catamaran offers tremendous stability and visually open space. Accommodations are significantly greater that those offered by a monohull of the same length. Unless one is looking at a model built for the charter business, which maximizes the number of staterooms, the living spaces can be easily tailored for a liveaboard agenda with master stateroom, en-suite head, and storage in one of the hulls. Some cats put the master accommodations on the bridgedeck, so owners are not forced to sleep in a relatively narrow hull.

Modern sailing gear and systems make these boats much simpler to sail, but one must be aware of the wind conditions, as sailing cats don’t heel, so it isn’t obvious when it is time to reef or shorten sails as on a monohull. An eye on the wind speed indicator tells you it is time to shorten sail to not overpower the boat. Early catamarans could turn upside down and remain quite stable inverted. Modern cruising cats do not have this tendency, and it is rare for this to happen except for racing catamarans that push the envelope far offshore.

The wide and open bridgedeck allows a nice galley and saloon layout with large windows that keep things bright and appealing, wide sliding pocket doors often open onto the aft cockpit, creating a unique and open living space that is hard to beat except on a superyacht. Spending quality time in an anchorage with the boat opened is about as good as it gets.

Sailing cats are also known for the wonderful ability to have a large dinghy on davits between the hulls. This is not to be understated, as a good dinghy is vital for a cruising boat, and this is by far the best way to carry a dinghy. It is simple work to raise the dinghy at the end of the day, keeping its bottom clean and out of touch of sticky fingers when cruising remote areas.

In these days of social media, a growing number of couples sustain their cruising lifestyle through Patreon donations from their YouTube channels. This has become one of the best marketing programs ever devised. Interestingly, many of these couples were new to sailing, and started with a sailing cat. Other couples may have started their travels on a monohull but switched over to a catamaran after visiting other YouTubers on their cat. They saw firsthand that the step up in livability is profound. Watching the weekly exploits of young couples exploring the world on their sailing cats has captured the imagination of millions of people. No one has done a better job of promoting life on a sailing cat than these people, and a few of the most popular channels have over a million subscribers. No print ad in any magazine can approach such lifestyle marketing.

Catamarans don’t like weight, especially in the ends of the boat, although that is less of an issue then it once was. Still, it is healthy to be mindful of what comes aboard, and rather than bring dozens of books to read while circling the globe, it is better to have one’s library on a Kindle. That is a practical example of the mantra of the cruising catamaran sailor. And while a cruising cat may have water tankage for a couple hundred gallons of water, a water maker is often installed.

Sailing cats come with two engines set far apart, using either straight drives or sail drives. This is more than enough for economical operation and great maneuverability.  As cats don’t require much horsepower to move through the water, sailing cats between 42 and 46 feet typically have diesel engines rated at only 29 to 40hp.

Living on a catamaran at anchor is delightful, as the open space, especially on the newer designs, is open, protected, and spacious. Cats need a bridle when anchoring to keep them from swinging back and forth, which keep the anchor rode between the hulls. It is not a difficult skill to learn but is key to successful anchoring.

There is something quite idyllic about enjoying morning coffee on a swim platform, watching the fish that tend to circle around in the shaded water between the hulls.

The success of the modern sailing catamaran is ample proof that it is one of the most attractive choices for sailing and cruising. There are projects under way to take them even further as the boat of the future, with solar arrays, lithium battery technology, and developing electric drive systems to make them carbon free. No other cruising boat is a better platform for these developments, so it is likely sailing catamarans will be the tip of the spear of the future greener boating experience.

The largest carbon fibre sailing catamaran in the world is now for sale

Catamarans are one of the most successful innovations in yachting and, according to leading brokerage firm Fraser, sales are on the rise. Amongst Fraser’s most prized yachts for sale, the spotlight is on the 34-metre sailing catamaran, Mousetrap . Designed for global exploration, she has undergone a comprehensive refit, resulting in a “like-new” yacht and offering prospective owners the opportunity to live a luxury sailing lifestyle. Prospective buyers will be pleased to know that Mousetrap will be attending the St Barths Bucket 2024. Whilst she will not be participating, she will be available to spectate and view. BOAT takes a closer look at this highly sought-after superyacht.

Setting records

Designed under the creative genius of the internationally acclaimed naval architect VPLP Design , Mousetrap was crafted as a bespoke carbon composite project by the esteemed French shipyard JFA Yachts . Originating from the visionary dreams of her owner, who actively spearheaded the entire project, she has earned her title as the world's largest carbon fibre sailing catamaran. Notably, Mousetrap 's design incorporates a carbon fibre arch supporting the mast, eliminating the need for posts in the main saloon and enhancing the visual expanse of the space. Furthermore, the yacht's light displacement, a result of her carbon fibre construction, enhances performance, and her hydraulic winches and expansive gennaker enable her to cruise at speed.

Stability at speed

Accommodating nine guests across four luxurious staterooms, Mousetrap boasts expansive open living spaces, rivalling those of larger motor or sailing yachts, with uninterrupted views stretching from the aft cockpit to the main saloon. The foredeck plays host to a custom six-person Jacuzzi, complemented by inviting lounging areas and a discreetly concealed ladder for easy access to the water. A large flybridge and an expansive aft deck, spanning the entire 14-metre beam, blend indoor and outdoor living, providing generous sheltered spaces for dining and lounging. The versatile main saloon accommodates relaxation, dining and work with its wraparound sofa, central bar, formal dining table and office area. With stability as a hallmark, Mousetrap 's sail is flat 90 per cent of the time, ensuring a smooth and comfortable journey.

A first-hand account from Fraser broker Georges Bourgoignie narrates the extraordinary stability, speed and comfort experienced during a memorable sail from Antigua to the Cayman Islands. Amidst a day's work in the saloon, whilst sailing at 15 to 20 knots with winds hovering between 20 to 25 knots, he recalls how stable the boat felt when sitting with a latte that was as steady as can be. “With no heel, little noise and complete comfort, it was unlike anything I have ever experienced before in my many years of sailing monohulls,” he says. “You’d be amazed at the stability, speed and comfort that a large catamaran affords you.”

As good as new

Originally constructed in 2012, Mousetrap had an extensive refit project from 2021 to 2023 and the owner spared no expense in bringing her back to good-as-new condition. The owner's dedication, coupled with the expertise of a highly knowledgeable crew and substantial capital investment, saw a spectrum of enhancements during the project, from integrating state-of-the-art machinery to renewing sails and meticulous servicing of the mast and rigging. The rejuvenation also extended to installing new teak decks, a major paint job and the overall refinishing of all areas.

Mousetrap is currently asking €19,500,000. For more information or to book an appointment to step on board at the St Barths Bucket 2024, contact the broker today .

Speak To A Silent Yachts Sales Professional

Silent Yachts offer an environmentally conscious choice when it comes to owning a yacht. Silent Yachts currently offers three solar-powered power catamaran models including the Silent 55, Silent 64, and Silent 80. United Yacht Sales is proud to be the U.S. distributor for Silent Yachts and can assist you in your search for the world's first solar-powered yacht. For more information, please contact United Yacht broker Darren Sell at (561) 351-7333 or by email at [email protected] . 

Where are Silent Yachts built?

Silent Yachts are built through two different shipyards depending on the model. The Silent 55 is built at the world-class shipyard of Mazarin German Yachts which also has a production site located in China. For over 70 years, Mazarin has been a leader in quality yacht construction with over 400 yachts delivered. Mazarin are experts in innovative construction processes that are able to produce light weight yachts.

The Silent 64 and Silent 80 are produced at the Italian-based shipyard Consorzio Navale which is a prestigous consoritum of builders and sub-contractors in the industry. The group has serviced many of the major Italian yacht brands such as Ferretti Yachts and Riva Yachts . Additionally, the Silent Yachts 80 features styling and design by Marco Casali and naval architecture by Insenaval.

Are Silent Yachts really completely solar-powered?

The short answer is yes. Owners can choose to go 100% solar-powered or install diesel engines should higher speeds want to be achieved over longer distances. Silent Yachts can cruise up to 100 miles per day by power acquired through its solar panels. Every day the solar panels are able to generate more power than the total consumption needed for propulsion at cruising speeds plus powering all of the appliances on board. 

How does the solar power work? 

The Silent Yachts power system feeds the electric propulsion of the power cat and all of the energy it needs to run the A/C, refrigerators, and other household appliances. Light-weight lithium batteries provide an ample amount of energy for everything on board. The lithium batteries used in Silent Yachts are the most expensive ones on the market, but also the most reliable, safe, and have the longest life span.

Solar panels are integrated to the roof of the flybridge hardtop sections instead of just being bolted on top, resulting in no wind load or resistance againest them. Below is a video explaining how the system functions and operates back when Silent Yachts were originally called "Solar Wave":

Who is the team behind Silent Yachts?

Heike and Michael Kohler have sent almost their entire lives on a boat. After more than two decades of using various boats, cruisers, and sailboats on multiple oceans, they became dedicated to finding a better energy source for the propulsion of yachts. Between the years of 2005 and 2009, Heike and Michael tested a number of a multitude of various alternative energy sources. In 2009, SolarWave 46 was launched as a proof of concept for their design. While there are many boats and yachts built that use solar power in some fashion, the Solarwave 46 was the first ocean-going yacht to use solar energy to power everything on board from engines to appliances.

What else is different about how Silent Yachts are built?

Certainly the solar-powered engines and generators are the distinguishing characteristic, but there are a lot of other features that make each Silent Yacht unique. For example, the molds were created using a CNC-milling machine that is able to contruct particular shapes for an optimized design. The materials used in the hull include a carbon compositie that is then resin-infused for a light-weight, but very strong platform. Every hull is fully insulated and the long-term durability is exceptional thanks to the high-quality resin used in the infusion process.

What propulsion systems are recommended by Silent Yachts?

Silent Yachts recommends the 2 x 135 engines as the best solution. If the owner is making frequest trips from Point A to B (Say Miami to the Bahamas for example) the faster hybrid is recommended. The main differentiator here is cruising speed. If the owner is living on the yacht for an extended period of time, rarely pushes the engines to top speeds, and stays below 12 knots, then the E-Power is recommended.

When the generator is running, does the 100Kw go to charging the batteries (which run the 250 Kw e-Motors) or directly to the e-Motors?

All of the enery consumers and producers are connected to the bus bar. If there happens to be more power produced than consumed, the excess power goes to re-charge the batteries. If for some reason more power is required than what is produced, the needed power comes from the lithium batteries.

What is the sustained speed if both 100 Kw generators are running?

This answer really depends upon sea condition and the weight of the boat (for example components, additional equipment, water toys, etc.). The sustained speed on average though is between 12 and 14 knots, 10 knots with one generator running. It is possible to cruise at 10 knots without a generator running when using the Solar E-Power.
