Full test in Multihulls World N°196: https://www.multihulls-world.com/review/motor/vandal-46-explorer-a-4x4-of-the-seas-in-catamaran-mode ► The Vandal Marine brand was created by Dutch manufacturer Tenderworks, who specialize in tenders for megayachts. The main idea behind the project was to bring to market a true “all-terrain” powercat, inspired by workboats and featuring an innovative design with asymmetrical hulls linked by a central foil capable of optimizing the equation that combines speed/consumption/passage though the water. The aluminum hulls are protected by impressive thick scantlings, and the welded parts throughout the deck are impressive. The 46 Explorer is fitted out in a somewhat rustic fashion, with a single, relatively spartan double cabin. However, a number of customization options, such as the fabric enclosure for the flybridge enhance the level of comfort. According to the manufacturer, at 20 knots, fuel consumption is reduced by 30%, giving a range of over 200 miles. It’s worth noting that despite the foiling design, the Vandal is still perfectly capable of taking the ground – you’re either an explorer or you’re not... A second 60-foot (18 m) model is currently under study. Full test of the Vandal 46 Explorer to appear in a forthcoming issue. ► TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS: Builder: Vandal Marine Architect: Jutson Marine Design Length overall: 46’ (14 m) Waterline length: 39’ (12 m) Beam: 14’ (4.4 m) Draft: 2’6” (0.8 m) Light displacement: 26,015 lbs (11.8 t) Powertrain: 2 x 425 HP Yamaha XTO Cruising speed: 20/28 knots Max speed: 40 knots Fuel: 333 US gal (1,260 l) Water: 79 US gal (300 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!

At just 30 years old, Captain Mark J. Reinhardt bought a 41' Morgan with almost no offshore sailing experience—and made the bold decision to sail around the world. In this clip, he shares how it all began: from being a Hobie cat and windsurfing enthusiast to stepping onto a full-size cruising sailboat and setting off into the unknown. Mark is currently sailing through the Solomon Islands aboard his beloved sailboat, Pompero, living full-time on the ocean and chasing the dream of global circumnavigation. He's also the author of Off the Grid: How I Quit the Rat Race and Live for Free Aboard a Sailboat, where he tells the story of how he left behind the conventional life to pursue freedom, simplicity, and the sea.
