► Presented in a world preview at the La Rochelle boat show, this catamaran, designed by Nicolas Purnu (a former partner of Marc Lombard, now based in Brittany with his own firm), has no hard nacelle - the central area will be fully protected by a large retractable canopy. The galley will be located aft of the mast bulkhead, along with a U-shaped deck saloon and a large 85 cm x 135 cm (33½ x 52”) table on a sliding base. The berths are located in the hulls. This Ventio #1, rigged with a carbon mast and daggerboards, is clearly performance-oriented and even optimized for sailing on one hull, thanks to a comprehensive NKE electronics package connected to two Cyclops electronic turnbuckles. This means it will be possible to monitor shroud tension in real time: it looks like it’s going to be sporty for our test scheduled at La Rochelle. ► Builder: Windpearl Yachts Architect: Nicolas Purnu Material: PVC/glass/vinylester foam sandwich Length: 34’9” (10.59 m) Beam: 20 ‘4” (6.21 m) Draft: 35” or 20”/6’11” (0.89 m or 0.5/2.1 m) Displacement: 8,150 lbs (3.7 t) Mainsail: 355/474 sq ft (33/44 m²) Self-tacking solent: 183 sq ft (17 m²) Code 0: 474 sq ft (44 m²) Motors: 2 x 10 HP ► 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!

Avalon Venture Cruise © Avalon Pontoon Boats Length overall: 6.25 m (20 ft 6 in) Beam: 2.44 m (8 ft 0 in) Pontoon diameter: 63.5 cm (25 in) Dry weight: 816 kg (1,800 lb) Max passenger capacity: 8–10 persons Fuel capacity: 95 L (25 US gal) Max horsepower: 115 hp Hull material: Aluminum The Avalon Venture Cruise is the premier choice for boaters seeking a compact, high-quality pontoon that does not sacrifice style for size. As part of Avalon’s boutique collection, the Venture features a narrower beam than traditional wide-body models, making it exceptionally easy to maneuver in tight marinas and effortless to trailer. The Cruise layout is specifically designed to maximize seating comfort, featuring plush Cadet series vinyl and a sophisticated helm station. Built with the same structural integrity as Avalon’s larger flagships, the Venture Cruise utilizes heavy-duty aluminum crossbeams and integrated splash shields for a smooth, dry ride. The open-concept deck provides ample room for social gatherings, while the integrated swim ladder and optional bimini top make it a functional platform for all-day family outings. Whether navigating small inland lakes or exploring coastal waterways, this model offers a refined entry into the luxury pontoon lifestyle. #AvalonPontoons #VentureCruise #PontoonBoating #HarbourMasters
