? Full test in Multtihulls World N°203. ? Most of us have probably forgotten about the Edel Cat 35, Kat 28, Corneel 26, Aventura 23, and 28, to name just a few. Back in the mid-eighties, these Open catamarans were giant sports catamarans with a hard cockpit instead of a trampoline. The Aventura 23 and 28, based on older models, revived the concept in the early 2000s and these endured for about fifteen years... but since then, there hasn't been much to report. So it was with great interest that we discovered the Ventio, presented for the first time 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 is fully protected by a large retractable canopy - at least in its Open Space version. 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. The Ventio #1, rigged with a carbon mast and daggerboards, is clearly performance-oriented while offering comfortable accommodation in the cabins. The builder offers a wide range of options, including a central cockpit with a composite coachroof, rigs of varying power, and a twin electric powertrain. ?
