For Those Who Want Unique

The Voyager is a newly designed high speed, long range, all weather capable ocean voyaging catamaran. Its main design remit was for a vessel combining a high-speed capability with exceptionally good seakeeping abilities enabling a high cruise speed in moderately rough sea conditions, be being ‘all weather’ capable and able to safely weather a storm, but also incorporating a high degree of luxury in her fit out.

The design features symmetrical hulls, incorporating semi-wave piercing bows with a very fine waterline entry and reverse rake transitioning to positive rake incorporating flare in the bows topsides to prevent excessive piercing and bow burying in large following seas.

The bridge deck is terminated 3m from the bows to prevent the possibility of slamming in large steep head seas when forced to slow down. The inner bows incorporate a substantial wave and spray deflector below the deck edge to turn down any solid water or spray running up the bow thereby preventing spray and potentially solid water from coming aboard forward of the bridge deck, and the outer bows also incorporate a wide spray defector below the

deck edge to deflect spray outboard keeping the boat very dry. The bridge deck to waterline clearance is substantial, being 1m at the transom to prevent wave impact on the bridge deck.

The Voyager has a LOA of 20m, a molded hull length of 18m and a moderate 6m beam. Powered by a pair of MAN V12 1,550hp engines with surface drive propulsion from a pair of France Helices SD5 drives. Close quarters maneuvering is assisted by twin hydraulic bow thrusters and stern thrusters. A hydrofoil is incorporated lifting the hull out of the water at speeds over 25kts, reducing drag and resistance and allowing a maximum speed over 50kts, and a 35-40kts cruise speed. Long range fuel tanks with a total capacity of 10,000L provide for a 1,000nm range at 35kts and a 2,500nm range at 9kts.

Designed for a crew of five, the main cabin features a central helm and navigator’s position and three crew seats, all being shock mitigation seating. A full galley with a large five seat dinette seating (converting to a berth) lies opposite in the spacious main cabin. Sleeping accommodation for five is provided between four cabins in the forward hulls.
