Discover the Granocean W-60 | Luxury Power Catamaran Yacht Learn more here: https://catamaranguru.com/gran-ocean-power-catamarans/ Working with Stimson Marine, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is employed to study hull variations to arrive at most suitable final form. And is further used for individual load cases in customized layout designs. Howard Apollonio has drawn up outstanding semi-planing hull lines to achieve excellent sea keeping, long range efficency at low speeds and great planing characteristics at high speeds. Welcome to a behind-the-scenes tour at Granocean Shipyards, where craftsmanship and engineering meet in the construction of the W-60 — a 60-foot performance cruising yacht designed with precision, philosophy, and structural integrity. Eric, the lead builder, stays after hours to guide us through the current state of the build. With the hull and deck now jointed, the team has entered a critical phase: installing the main deck sole and lower deck sole — key structural components that unify the vessel. Structural Methodology Spotlight Eric emphasizes the importance of cohesive connectivity between all components. Four continuous bulkheads run transversely from port to starboard, forming the backbone of the boat. These aren’t just structural walls — they are integrated load pathways that connect the hull, deck, cockpit, and bilge into a single high-integrity unit. Every cut, bond, and layout choice reflects a deeply considered philosophy of durability, performance, and system harmony. The W-60 is the product of years of refinement at Granocean, known for custom high-performance catamarans that marry engineering integrity with owner-led customization. The W-series was born from a desire to break with traditional compromise-laden layouts and instead create vessels optimized from the hull up. The W-60 leverages lessons learned from the early W-52s and 62s, while integrating client feedback and performance testing across oceans. Each W-series hull carries forward a philosophy of monocoque strength, minimized vibration, and exacting weight distribution. Whether you're a seasoned sailor, aspiring builder, or simply fascinated by the inner workings of yacht construction, this video offers a detailed, unfiltered look at how expert shipwrights bring a high-performance vessel to life. 🛥️ KEY FEATURES: - 60-foot (17.9m) length with a 28.5 ft beam for unmatched interior space - Open or enclosed flybridge configurations, plus a sports-fisher version - Interior by Vripack – choose from Mediterranean, Scandinavian, Elegant Chique, or Cosmopolitan styles - Twin diesel engines with options up to 715 HP for speeds up to 26 knots - Ocean-capable with CE Certification Category A - Fully customizable layout and finish for discerning owners - Semi-planing flared hulls with high bridge deck clearance for superior seakeeping - Advanced composite construction with carbon reinforcement and structural engineering by Gurit Structural Engineer: Gurit SP Naval Architect: Howard Apollonio Designer: Eric So – Granocean Interior: VRIPACK Overall length: 58.70 feet / 17.90 meters Maximum beam: 28.50 feet / 8.70 meters Draft: 4.00 feet / 1.20 meters Maximum displacement: 30.000 Kg/ 66.140 lbs Engines: 2 x Cummins QSB6.7 380mhp Diesel Engine Fuel: 4,500 Liters/1,320 US gallons Fresh water: 1,000 Liters /264 US gallons Stay tuned for more information about GranOcean and its catamarans.

🇬🇧Restless, turbulent, tense, insecure are some of the moods we (can) deal with as human beings. At least I do. Like the wind as I was experiencing now, it went everywhere and nowhere. In 4 hours fluctuating from little, none, a lot, none etc. If I want to move forward I have to adjust to the wind. Sail out, in, out, on one side, then on the other, then both open, in again, etc but getting to destination I do even though it takes most of my time. When as a person I also feel so unstable, unsettled I actually deal with it the same way. I adapt, tell myself it's okay to feel this way even though it can be unpleasant at times but I always keep a positive mindset going forward because it's like wind that then turns making you move forward again. Never give up! Stay positive and 'go with the flow' ❤️ 🇳🇱Onrustig, woelig, gespannen, onzekerheid zijn enkele stemmeningen waar wij als mens te maken mee (kunnen) hebben. Ik wel althans. Net als de wind zoals ik nu meemaakte ging deze overal en nergens naar toe. In 4 uur tijd schommelend van weinig, geen, veel, geen etc. Wil ik vooruit komen dan moet ik mij aanpassen aan de wind. Zeil uit, in, uit, aan de ene kant, dan aan de andere kant, dan beide open, weer in, etc maar op bestemming komen dat doe ik ook al neemt het meest tijd. Wanneer ik mij als persoon ook zo onstabiel, onrustige voel dan ga ik daar eigenlijk hetzelfde mee om. Ik pas mij aan, zeg tegen mijzelf dat het oké is om zo te voelen ook al kan het wel eens niet fijn zijn maar ik blijf altijd positief vooruit kijken want het is net zoals wind die dan draait waardoor je weer vooruit komt. Nooit opgeven! Positief blijven en 'go with the flow'❤️
