Boat Details
HULL SHAPE
Unique bow shape that produces an extended waterline length and facilitates a finer entry angle thus giving the vessel handling characteristics typical of much larger vessels.
The unique asymmetric tunnel geometry generates spray at specific points inside the tunnel, creating a high-density air/water vapor cushion that the hull rides on. The result is a significantly dampened ride and reduced full consumption.
The reduced structural weight (see construction section) results in reduced demi-hull beam and effective increase in hull deadrise (deeper vee), while full-length longitudinal steps in the running surfaces provided both efficient lift and dynamic stability
The catamaran hull configuration gives superior stability in all conditions.
CONFIGURATION
Self-draining decks ensuring superior swamping protection.
In-build floatation meets or exceeds Australian standard in all models. All foam is encapsulated in hull or enclosed under the deck.
Reduced structural weights mean lower towing weight and increased passenger capacity compared to a similar length monohull.
ENGINES
Our preferred outboard motor brand is Honda Marine. We are a Honda dealership making it possible to provide you with the best price should you purchase a fully rigged boat. * Terms and conditions apply.
CONSTRUCTION
Designed and built to Australian commercial craft standards (NSCV). Construction of any vessel in range can be surveyed to AMSA NSCV commercial standards.
Advanced composite construction of hull, deck and internal structures featuring:
- Vacuum infused using vinyl ester resin
- PVC foam core used in hull and deck for high shear capacity and low weight. Solid laminate transom, bottom, chines and keel
- Multi-axial fibres used throughout for increased laminate stiffness and strength and reduced weight
- Polyester gelcoat with integrally moulded non-skid on deck and cockpit (Flexiteak optional).
