Gunboats are built to move. Here's a quick look at the range including the new addition - a Gran Turismo catamaran. ▫️ "Sail Fast. Live Fully". That's the new mantra at Gunboat where they are developing a new line of luxury performance yachts: the Fusion 80. She's designed so performance and comfort do not compete but rather reinforce each other.  ▫️ How Have They Achieved That? ▫️ The Fusion 80 has been engineered to outperform its volume class by ~30%. They have achieved this through: - High-aspect appendages. A stiff, lightweight composite platform - Optimised hydrodynamics by VPLP Low friction, efficient hull forms - A large, balanced sail plan (310m2 upwind) Less weight (25T) = more wind unlocked ▫️ The Fusion 80 sails in 6-8 knots of breeze where heavy cruisers motor. ▫️ Longer sailing windows, quieter passages, less motoring. ▫️ We're looking forward to seeing this one on the water! ▫️ #luxury #yacht #gunboat72 #gunboat68 @GUNBOATCATAMARANS
