Another Explocat 52 touches the water — a bold catamaran built for adventure, ready to head for the unknown. This launch marks the beginning of the final stage: checks, sea trials, and final prep before delivery. ⚓🔧 And this time, it’s even more special — the owners step aboard for the very first time at the end of the video. Aluminum-built. Exploration-ready. Nowhere you can't go! #GarciaYachts #Explocat52 #AluminumCatamaran #FirstSplash #ExtremeSailing #BlueWaterAdventure #OffTheBeatenPath
The modern Catamarans are made for comfort and not so much for sailing, that means they project a very large beam surface and the anchor cannot be effective with more than 15 kts of Crossing wind. To make the anchor effective you must upgrade to maybe 50 kg witch is unrealistic for this kind of boats, so make sure you protect your leeward quarter with a round fender or even better a permanent fender that can protect from any kind of accidental touch to the dock during your backing as well.
