âē Full test in Multihulls World N°191: https://www.multihulls-world.com/review/motor/prestige-m8-powercat-or-yacht-why-both-captain âē This new model announced at Boot DÃŧsseldorf confirms the ambitions of Prestige Yachts regarding the M-Line range they inaugurated in 2022 with the M48. A catamaran configuration is indeed where the manufacturer placing their bets! The M8 should have been called the M58, but Prestige's management preferred to emphasize the âmonohull equivalent comfortâ, in the same way that Fountaine Pajot did with their MY range. The M8 intends to offer features comparable to those of an 80-foot monohull yacht. Looking at the very first 3D views and the specifications presented, this will indeed be the case: the total living space extends over 2,900 square feet (270 m²), including 540 sq ft (50 m²) for the flybridge, 510 sq ft (47.5 m²) for the nacelle, 345 sq ft (32 m²) for the aft cockpit, and 320 sq ft (30 m²) for the forward owner's cabin, which occupies all the available width... A great deal of effort has also gone into the design, the materials used, and the quality of finish, such as the access to the flybridge from inside, surrounded by glass to avoid breaking the view, the bar between the two aft openings and the hydraulic platform that can be used as a terrace at the same level as the cockpit. While the M8 isnât a semi-custom powercat, various options, such as having the galley down, will allow this new model to be personalized. The shipyard is also taking a step towards respecting the environment with a Silent Yacht option: a lithium battery bank combined with solar panels will allow the crew to spend the night aboard without having to resort to running the generator. The M8's low fuel consumption is also worthy of note (at least at slow speeds) as the twin 600 HP Volvo D8s require only 5Âŧ US gallons (20 liters) per hour at 8 knots. Like the M48, the maximum speed remains modest, at 20 knots. On the other hand, the range this catamaran offers, while comfortable, wonât allow you to envisage too much in the way of ocean passage-making. âē TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS Builder: Prestige Yachts Length overall: 67â11â (20.7 m) Hull length: 60â (18.3 m) Beam: 28â10â (8.8 m) Drivetrain: 2 x 600 HP Fuel: 978 US gal (3,700 l) Water: 211 US gal (800 l) Maximum speed: 20 knots Range at 10 knots: 850 miles âē Become a FREE SUBSCRIBER to Multihulls World's YouTube page now - https://www.youtube.com/c/MultihullsWorld âē Log on to our website to discover over 500 multihulls tests!

Did you know our boats donât have a hull-to-deck joint? We donât make our yachts like other manufacturers, we make them better, stronger, and to last longer. One of the ways we distinguish our yachts from the mass-produced yachts is the way we join the hull to the deck. Some manufacturers bond the hull to the deck with structural adhesive, some bond and use screws, some bond and bolt. We are one of a few manufacturers who bond and then laminate the deck to the hull. Doing this makes the hull stronger; the hull and the deck become a single, strong structure. It is easier and quicker to fit the interior of a yacht before the deck is attached, but doing this means that the deck will have to be joined with the bulkheads and some of the interior in place â this makes the join harder to access. We join the hull and deck as one of the first parts of the build process; the whole join can be laminated and we know there will be no voids. We then build our yachts with the deck attached; everything for the interior â the bulkheads, every item you see in the interior, including the engine â comes through the companionway or the roof in the deck saloon. #WeAreSirius #SiriusWerft #Sirius #siriusyachts #Yacht #Yachting #Sailing #Sailboat #Decksaloon #decksalon #BluewaterCruiser #OffshoreCruiser #LiftingKeel #Twinkeel #BilgeKeel #Handbuilt #Sailingyacht #Sailingboat #BlueWaterSailing #GoAnywhereCruiser #Swingkeel #OceanSailing #Circumnavigation #DreamYacht #Segeln #SailingLife #SailingLifeStyle #LiveABoard #SailingInstagram #YachtingWorld
