? 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. ?

The custom horn (with its own air compressor!) is just one of the many upgrades featured throughout this exceptionally well-maintained vessel. Skipjack is ready to go having been recently hauled and serviced for the season. Bow and stern thrusters makes for easy maneuvering with the twin Mercruiser V-8 engines, and the custom stainless grab rail that runs the length of the full canvas enclosure makes going forward to the bow along the side decks safe and secure. Below decks the sheer size of the interior space and natural light is impressive, including the Sellers self declared "sunken living room" which converts into a large double bunk for guests or crew. Complete with built-in vacuum system and security system with camera monitoring, Skipjack is available to view by appointment.
