Why we chose the catamaran we did for our next world sailing adventure. HH52 catamarans.
After looking at both monohulls and catamarans in the 50 - 55 foot range at the Cannes Boat Show, we made our choice of which boat to buy. We did a lot of online research then decided all the boats of interest would be at the Cannes Festival of Sails, hence we flew over from Australia to do our hands on research. We're looking for a new boat to cruise the world in as a couple with family and friends joining us along the way. Having cruised the equivalent of 2 laps of the globe and with over 10 years of living on boats, we had pretty strong views on what we did and didn't like. We decided we liked the idea of a catamaran, but didn't want to give us on the luxuries we'd had on our Discovery 55 (which was a high end mono hull). We then we're looking for the best of the cats and really short listed it to the Outremer 55 and the HH52 by HH Catamarans.
