This vessel is designed with a very different approach than anything else available. It is specifically intended as a very long range cruising boat for 2-4 people. While most long range displacement vessels are restricted to low speed, this vessel is capable of very high speed passage making journeys in superb comfort as its long lean hulls cut effortlessly through the water. The small 120 hp engines required will quietly push the vessel at 23 knots for over 2,500 nautical miles, while those into very long cruises can double this range at 12 knots with the engines barely above idle.

The vessel is designed for foam and glass composite construction, and can be purchased as a kitset, shell only or completed vessel. Please contact the designer for further information
