► Full test in Multihulls World N°192: https://www.multihulls-world.com/review/motor/valder-20-a-powercat-for-james-bond ► When New Zealand offshore powerboat racer Wayne Valder decided to take an interest in building a cruising powercat, the result was always going to be a (very) fast machine! “I’m used to racing my MTI catamaran at over 120 knots on the US offshore circuit, so even though I hadn’t planned anything that fast in recreational boat form, I still wanted something with reasonable performance,” Wayne tells us. His quest led him to one of the big names in high-performance leisure catamarans, Roger Hill, who designed a large 67-foot (20 m) catamaran equipped with a self-stabilizing foil system. This powercat was then built in a foam/carbon/epoxy sandwich and fitted with a powerful drivetrain (2 x 1,300 HP) to reach 45 knots. Cruising speed is between 18 knots - the speed at which the foils start to work - and 30 knots, where range is still 1,143 miles (with a 10% reserve). Particular attention has been paid to soundproofing and vibration suppression. The layout can be customized according to the Owner's wishes, as can the deck layout: the flybridge version can even accommodate a (small) helicopter, though a Sedan version also features in the catalog. ► TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS Builder: Valder Yachts Length overall: 67’7” (20.6 m) Waterline length: 56’1” (17.1 m) Beam: 22’ (6.7 m) Draft: 33” (0.83 m) Light displacement: 66,000 lbs (30 t) Max laden displacement: 88,625 lbs (40.2 t) Max. speed: 45 knots Cruising speed: 18 to 30 knots Range at 9 knots: approx. 4,000 miles Drivetrain: 2 x MAN V8 1,300 HP Fuel: 2,500 US gal (9,460 l) Water: 440 US gal (1,675 l) ► Become a FREE SUBSCRIBER to Multihulls World's YouTube page now - https://www.youtube.com/c/MultihullsWorld ► Log on to our website to discover over 500 multihulls tests!
