After nearly three months out of the water, Quicksilver’s Port Douglas-based dive and snorkel catamaran Silversonic has a unveiled a striking new look and new generation engines following a $1.66 million refit. The 29 metre catamaran now shines with a sleek aluminium finish and is powered by two new Rolls-Royce mtu 2000 Series engines, compliant with sustainable marine fuels. Quicksilver Group Managing Director Tony Baker said the transformation reflects both innovation and long-term commitment to sustainable operations. “This refit was a major undertaking and a credit to our incredible Engineering team and local marine contractors. Silversonic not only looks fantastic but will also operate more efficiently, with reduced emissions and improved performance - helping future-proof our fleet for years to come.” The major exterior makeover - stripped back to shining aluminium, is a nod to her name and Quicksilver’s signature flagship wavepiercing catamarans. This latest investment completes the transition of Quicksilver’s Port Douglas outer reef fleet to sustainable fuel-ready engines, reinforcing the company’s leading role in environmentally responsible marine tourism on the Great Barrier Reef. Quicksilver General Manager of Operations Travis Clarke said the upgraded engines also bring operational benefits. “Our vessels Quicksilver VIII, Quicksilver V, Silversonic and Poseidon now share the same engine series, improving efficiency and allowing easier maintenance across the fleet. It’s a win for sustainability and for smart operations.” Designed for adventure and comfort, Silversonic carries up to 90 guests (despite capacity for over 130) to explore three spectacular Agincourt ribbon reef sites daily. Two air-conditioned decks, a spacious dive platform, sun decks and a state-of-the-art ride control system ensure guests enjoy a smooth and unforgettable reef experience. Located on the edge of Australia’s Continental Shelf, the world-renowned Agincourt ribbon reefs are celebrated for their crystal-clear waters, spectacular corals and abundant marine life, offering some of the very best day boat diving and snorkelling experiences on the Great Barrier Reef. Silversonic has exclusive permits to visit over 35 World Heritage Agincourt reef sites, as well as a permit to swim with minke whales if encountered. About the new engines: Silversonic was repowered with two new generation Rolls Royce mtu 2000 series commercial marine engines (10V2000M72) - certified for HVO (Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil) and other synthetically produced diesel fuels, and new ZF marine gearboxes.

An outstanding and rare opportunity to acquire this one owner from new Fountaine Pajot MY 40. Extremely well equipped with VOLVO IPS, generator, air conditioning, and water maker. Her centre console RIB and outboard are easily deployed from the hydraulic platform. A skipper has been on board since new. Lying in the Barcelona area, viewings are unreservedly recommended. Antifouling, engine and generator service completed in September 2023. Spanish ITB passed in March 2023 (valid for two years). NOTABLE FEATURES • Port hull dedicated owner’s suite with large private bathroom • Starboard hull with one VIP double and one bunk cabin sharing a bathroom • VOLVO IPS 500 with joystick in lieu of standard smaller engines • Yachtcontroller system with remote for ease of handling in tight spaces • Generator and full air conditioning for Mediterranean cruising • Water maker for extended autonomy when on board • Hydraulic platform converting into a beach when lowered • Highfield 380 RIB with centre console and 25 HP Yamaha outboard • Large fixed hard top with central opening canvas panels • Generous flybridge with kitchenette, dining table, sunbathing area and upper helm position The asking price is ex VAT but subject to status she can be purchased ex tax or EU VAT paid if necessary. The vessel is in an SPV which can be purchased. Spanish matriculation taxes have been paid and she holds a valuable Spanish Charter license. A fabulous opportunity for private, mixed or commercial use. The Fountaine Pajot MY 40 is “a powercat that stands out for its speed, stability and excellent fuel economy, topped by impressive living spaces that include a best-in-class flybridge and remarkable owner’s suite.” Unlike many power cats the FP MY 40 was designed as a powered craft. The resultant performance, handling and accommodation are fabulous. For more information, please visit the full listing on our website at: https://www.aberyyachts.com/for-sale/fountaine-pajot-my-40
