► Discover our full test in Multihull World N°200: https://www.multihulls-world.com/review/catamaran/swiss-cat-55-glamorous-and-efficient ► Swiss Cat Yachts is ramping up business, having kept a relatively low profile in recent years: their new 55 made a big impression at Cannes with its inverted bows, modern, attractive layouts and, of course, its electric metallic blue exterior. Circulation on board is optimized thanks to wide side-decks and gentle slopes - such as the steps between the cockpit and the sugarscoops. The deck layout is particularly uncluttered, with minimalist helm stations. The weight calculation of around 31,000 lbs (14 t) and the generous sail area (1,840 square feet/171 m² upwind) guarantee excellent performance even in light airs. In rough seas, the 3’3”/1-meter bridgedeck clearance will protect the catamaran from slamming. As for the cutter rig, it guarantees safety and ease of handling offshore. This new 55, like all Swisscat models, can be customized according to the owner’s wishes. ► Technical Specifications Builder: Swiss Cat Yachts Architect: YDC Design: Amadio and Partners Length: 55’5” (16.9 m) Beam: 26’11” (8.2 m) Displacement: 30,865 lbs (14 t) Draft: 2’2”/9’6” (0.66/2.9 m) Mast length: 733’10” (22.5 m) Mainsail: 1,087 sq ft (101 m²) Genoa: 753 sq ft (70 m²) Gennaker: 1,722 sq ft (160 m²) Spinnaker: 2,690 sq ft (250 m²) ► 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!

2023 RORC Caribbean 600 & RORC Caribbean 600 Series. The RORC Caribbean 600 is a totally unique annual race and will celebrate its 14th year in 2023. The race is organized by the Royal Ocean Racing Club (RORC), a London and Cowes based club with a worldwide reputation for the management of offshore races. Since its inception in 2009 the RORC Caribbean 600 has earned recognition as one of the world’s classic offshore races and is a firm fixture on the international racing calendar and on the bucket list of any serious offshore sailor. Starting and finishing in Antigua, the unique 600-mile course uses 11 Eastern Caribbean islands as turning marks, providing an interesting challenge for both navigators and crew. With such a long racing course, the finishing times can vary by days. The RORC work with Falmouth-based Antigua Yacht Club and their army of local volunteers, supporting the management of this great event. Every yacht to finish the race is met with a welcoming cold beer – much appreciated after the 600 nautical mile challenge! For the first time in 2023 RORC introduces the RORC Caribbean Series aimed at providing a mix of competitive inshore and coastal racing before embarking on the challenges of the classic 600 mile offshore race. The series is expected to consist of: • Two days of inshore and short coastal races on Tuesday 14 and Wednesday 15 February 2023 • Layday on Thursday 16th February • The popular 360 Round Antigua Race on Friday 17 February • With prizegiving for the series joining the traditional opening party on Saturday 18 February • RORC Caribbean 600 starting Monday 20th February #Caribbean600 #RORCracing
