► Discover our full test in Multihulls World N°200: https://www.multicoques-mag.com/essais/catamaran/swiss-cat-55-glamour-et-efficace ► Aimed at the high-end day charter market, this powercat was designed by Yacht Design Collective and Damien Bovie Design. The renders of the 3D images were already giving the effect... but then actually on the water, here we are aboard a catamaran worthy of appearing in the next James Bond movie! The layout is 100% day charter, with an extra-large nacelle - completely open at the stern and towards the bow-rider thanks to a glass door, which can remain open in fair weather. Modular seating throughout, an off-center helm station to starboard and... that’s enough. Each hull is nonetheless fitted with a double berth, plenty of storage space and a heads compartment. The one-off composite construction by Chantier Hervé (no need to introduce them in La Rochelle!), these stripped-down layouts and the absence of a hydraulic platform ultimately translate into a displacement of just 11.5 tons. The twin FPT motors, each rated at 500 HP, have little trouble propelling the Sunmare at 30 knots. On board, the Sunmare’s excellent ability to more through the and careful attention to soundproofing are particularly noteworthy. Maestro, as this boat has been named, will be operated by Croisière Exclusive out of Porto-Vecchio in Corsica for the 2024 season. Other Sunmare 50s could join it... Full test in a forthcoming issue. ► TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS Builder: Chantier Naval Hervé Architects: Yacht Design Collective Exterior design: Damien Bovie Design Length overall: 50’6” (15.4 m) Length at waterline: 47’11” (14.6 m) Beam: 19’8” (6 m) Draft: 4’ (1.2 m) Displacement: 25,350 lbs (11.5 t) Engines: 2 x 500 HP FPT in-line + 2 x 15 kW (optional) Cruising speed: 20/25 knots Fuel: 396 US gal (1,500 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!

You may have heard the "ease, hike, trim" sequence mentioned for managing gusty, stronger conditions. Did you know it's also an effective flow for the light wind? In light wind, we create more power by easing, more speed by adding weight, and more efficiency by trimming. Sarah Douglas Sailing, #3 World Sailing Ranked Athlete (at time of this post), shows us the basics of light airspeed.
