Anchoring is always tight in the popular anchorages in the Med! With a swirling wind this guy gets too close and we have to pull up our swim platform and ask him to move which he does without question.

► Discover our full test in Multihulls 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!

Our first washing day since we connected the first solar panels :-) We have ended with more in the batteries than we started the day despite multiple loads of washing and spin drying, doing the washing up (between them and drinks boiling the kettle on the induction hob at least 6 times), and running my computer (mini desktop with 40" screen). We are now living aboard our Rival 38 Centre Cockpit full-time while finishing a refit so we can launch ASAP. We have a frequently updated blog at https://sustainablesailing.net with membership options and a weekly newsletter at £2 per month for Early Bird Supporters. Our free Sustainable Sailing book is at: https://sustainablesailing.codeberg.p... Or visit our shop at https://sustainablesailing.teemill.com/ for great hoodies, t-shirts and bags. When we bought Vida in August 2019 she was in a very tired and damp condition with all original equipment and fittings (much of it not working). We have removed all the gas, diesel and paraffin equipment, and are installing all-electric (motor, cooking etc).

We are proud to introduce the Reliance, an ultra low-wake, hydrofoil-assisted catamaran built for Kitsap Transit. Designed by Teknicraft Design and built by All American Marine in Bellingham, Reliance will operate on Kitsap’s current cross-sound ferry route between Bremerton and downtown Seattle.
