? Our Australian correspondent Kevin Green got the opportunity for a test sail aboard the XF75, a luxurious powercat that is as high-performance as it is exclusive, with a superstructure that doubles as a helipad. This powercat, offered by New Zealand manufacturer Voodoo Yachts and unveiled at the recent Sanctuary Cove International Boat Show, features a carefully optimized hull and foils that allow it to reach speeds of up to 50 knots. In addition to this impressive speed for a 75-foot vessel, the Voodoo boasts fuel consumption well below that of an 85- to 90-foot monohull superyacht offering the same features: the usable area measures some 3,000 square feet (279 m²)... By limiting its speed to 8 knots, the XF75 is capable of ocean passage-making. Check out the full test report in our next Power Special Edition #25. ? TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS: Builder: Voodoo Yachts Length: 79' (22.8 m) Beam: 25' (7.6 m) Draft: 4'7" (1.4 m) Displacement: 47 t Powertrain: 2 x 1,250 or 1,800 hp Propulsion: Waterjet Fuel: 1,450 to 3,700 US gal (5,500 to 14,000 l) Maximum speed: 50 knots Cruising speed: 28/40 knots Range: 1,200 miles at 30 knots and 3,000 miles at 8 knots Berths: 8 to 12 people ?

After over a year and three black water tanks later, we now have a non leaking black water tank in the starboard forward head. This could double the time between pump outs. Now guests can have their own head area. Thanks to Seawind and Sailaway Catamarans for coordinating this warranty work. We are getting close to starting our sailing season, albeit, a tad late. We hope to see everyone out there soon. Feel free to comment and let us know your thoughts. Subscribe and share the adventure!

We sailed to Fiordland in New Zealand and drove my boat right under a waterfall. This was one of the most beautiful places we had ever taken the boat. SV Parlay is a hurricane damaged Lagoon 450 catamaran, which Colin rebuilt with friends and has started sailing around the world. We found bulkhead damage on their catamaran in Panama, so have fixed her up, and are now sailing across the Pacific Ocean!!

?? Olivier Heer is living in a tilted mode right now, but the conditions are calm, so the skipper is taking the opportunity to explain what he eats in a day. ?? La vie est penchée pour Olivier Heer en ce moment, mais les conditions sont calmes, alors le skipper en profite pour nous expliquer ce qu'il mange sur une journée. ------------------------ ??
