Aqua Cat 14 Catamaran

The larger version of one of the world's most popular one design catamarans brings you performance, simplicity and weight carrying capabilities not offered in other catamarans this size. Featuring wide, flat bottom hulls with turned up bows and a small keel skeg, the pontoon design is unequaled in weight carrying capacity and planing speed. The small keels have replaced the daggerboards used on the smaller Aqua Cat and allow for easy beaching thru the surf. Designed for ocean sailing or inland lakes this cat has it all. The Aqua Cat 14 is ideal for four large adults or where capabilities to support 1,000 lbs. are needed.

The boomless sail rig supported by the tubular "a" frame provides simplicity and safety not found in traditional wire shroud designs. One sheetline and a simple tiller arrangement result in sailing simplicity, fun and excitement. Weighing in at 230 lbs. and with a 6-1/2 foot beam, it can easily be car topped or trailered to your favorite spot on the beach. Constructed of hand laid fiberglass, anodized aluminum tubing and stainless steel fasteners, maintenance is at a minimum. The rudder system is durable all aluminum construction with gudgeons through bolted to aluminum plates inside the hull and features wide performance designed aluminum blades. Positive foam flotation in each hull, plus the added feature of the mast flotation ball provide a measure of confidence and safety.

Standard features include spring loaded kick up rudders, 105 sq. ft. Dacron two colored sail, a 360 quick release cleat and rudder lift systems. Available with white hulls with red side stripes and four sail combinations, the Aqua Cat offers a performance fun package not to be missed. Experience the Aqua Cat feeling.

RESORT SPECIAL VERSION OF AQUA CAT 14 CATAMARAN

Exceedingly popular as a resort rental craft, the Aqua Cat 14 has proven itself as an excellent investment. Its simplicity allows use by the most inexperienced and offers a stable, safe and fun filled package for the Hotel Guest.

American Sail manufactures a slightly slower version of this popular catamaran for use in resort locations where most sailors are novices. The resort special features a smaller sail (90 square foot), a shorter mast and eliminates the 360 main sheet cleat to require the sailor to hold the rope controlling the sail thus reducing capsize possibilities.

Sailboat Review: Light and Lively Excess 14

• By Mark Pillsbury
• November 7, 2023

When Groupe Beneteau’s Excess Catamarans introduced its first model in 2019 , a test sail in winds approaching 40 knots made it abundantly clear that the 38-foot-7-inch Excess 12 wasn’t just another pretty new face in the ever-growing cat crowd. That boat could sail.

A recent light-air outing aboard the company’s newest model, the Excess 14, was perhaps equally revealing. With a hull length right around 44 feet and a beam of 25 feet, 9 inches, this is a big, roomy and comfortable cruising cat. But in just 5 knots of breeze, sailing with the main and working jib set, the chart plotter’s speed over ground read 4.1 knots heading upwind with the sails sheeted hard. A little later, with the jib rolled up and the code zero unfurled and set on a sprit that brings the boat’s LOA to 52 feet, 5 inches, our boatspeed was 5.7 knots on a reach in wind gusting to maybe 6. 

Those were conditions that would have left a lot of similar-size multihulls parked, but the Excess 14 felt relatively lively underway and “tacked quickly,” I wrote in my notes. I also noted that line handling was easy, thanks to sheet winches within reach of the helms and an electric Harken FlatWinder winch that handles a traveler mounted outboard of a comfortable bench seat that spans most of the transom.

For the record, I’m a fan of the Excess brand DNA that calls for outdoor helm stations located far aft on either stern. Sitting at them underway, you can see and hear the water rush by and feel the breeze in your face. You know, like when you’re sailing. You can converse with people seated in the cockpit, and you have easy access to the salon should you care to set the autopilot and keep watch out of the elements, through windows that provide nearly 360 degrees of visibility.

Open to fresh ideas, the team at Excess started with a blank slate when they conceived the 14, and they gave naval architects at VPLP Design some liberty in terms of hull design in their quest for better performance. VPLP, drawing from their experience with a long line of racing machines, then tested and ultimately opted for asymmetrical hulls—think of a monohull sliced lengthwise down the middle and then separated—that tend to reduce the size of the waves produced between the hulls, thereby reducing drag that slows down the boat.

The design team also toyed with replacing the stub keels affixed to most cruising cats, including earlier Excess models, with the sort of lifting daggerboards found on high-performance cats. They dropped that idea, however, because daggerboards add complexity when sailing and take away from living space below. Instead, the 14 has more-efficient, deeper and thinner fixed foils that increase draft to 4 feet, 10 inches—a few inches deeper than what you would expect to find on cats of a similar size.

There are also interesting ­innovations found in the 14’s interior, where saving weight has a direct relationship to livelier sailing. Relatively lighter carbon-fiber cloth is employed in some structural areas for strength, and some bulkheads are infused using foam coring. And there’s less wood used in furniture, drawers and stowage areas. Overhead, the cabin top is injected-molded, eliminating the need for a liner. And in hulls with two staterooms and two head compartments located amidships, the toilets share a single holding tank to reduce plumbing, while the staterooms share one larger Webasto air-conditioning unit, saving the weight and wiring required for two. 

Excess is also involved with Groupe Beneteau’s overall efforts to adopt more-sustainable building practices. Laminates used for the performance mainsail and genoa are recycled material, and hemp fibers are used in place of fiberglass and injected with partly bio-sourced resin in some nonstructural parts such as locker lids. Even furniture knobs have been replaced by neat little loops of rope.

Buyers have a few decisions to make when ordering an Excess 14. There is a four-­stateroom version that would be well-suited for charter, and there are a couple of three-stateroom options. In one, the owner gets a large fore-and-aft bunk aft, a sitting area with a desk at the foot of the companionway, a head and shower forward, and a walk-in closet in place of a V-berth. A second plan, called the Transformer Version, has bunks far forward that can be folded down for sleeping or up for stowage. (One company photo shows a paddleboard stashed away there.) That’s the layout we saw in Miami and the one I’d choose if it were my boat. In all the layouts, the salon gets lots of sunlight and has a pleasant, airy feeling with the sliding door and window open aft. There’s an abundance of fridge and freezer space adjacent to the galley to port. Dining tables are indoors, at the front of the salon, and in the cockpit. 

The Miami boat included a pair of optional 57 hp Yanmar diesels with saildrives (45 hp engines come standard) that pushed us along at 7.8 knots in cruising speed and 8.4 knots in get-home-quick mode. Gear included an electric winch at the starboard helm to make raising the main easier, as well as engine controls at either wheel to make docking simpler. Davits are available, as are canvas Biminis over the wheels for shade.

The boat also had an optional seating area on the flybridge. It reminded me a bit of a stretch version of the footwell that you’d find on a Sunfish. I’m not sure if it’s an option I’d choose, and with the boom set relatively low on the mast, it wouldn’t be a place to lounge underway. Some might like to sit up there while at anchor to enjoy the view though.

The sail-away price for the boat we visited is right around $980,000, but that’s loaded with gear, including an Onan generator and a Pulse rig and sail package that includes a 70-foot-8-inch mast instead of the standard 64-foot-11-inch spar. The upwind Pulse rig sail area of 1,453 square feet will be appreciated by those who sail in variable conditions and like to go fast; in the trades, the standard 1,323 square feet might suffice, and the shorter rig would let you just squeeze under most Intracoastal Waterway bridges.

Me? I was happy to have the added horsepower provided by the bigger square-top main. Sailing a big cat in 5 knots of breeze isn’t always fun, but aboard the Excess 14, we had a jolly old time.

FastCat14™ Catamaran Reviews

I absolutely love my FastCat 14. It really is a great day boat and fishing boat with plenty of room for all of my gear, friends, coolers, and more. I have it packaged with a Honda 9.9 and it pushes this boat around just fine. Its great being able to get into shallow areas that many boats cannot. When I get to the beach I pull it up on the beach and use it as a day bed. The new bow padding and scotty rod holders make me jealous. Great boat!

This boat has exceeded expectations in every way. It is stable, durable, eye-catching, and very functional. There is so much room on it. I've had many fun outings on it with friends and family. Satisfied owners, on their own, created a Facebook group for those who have already bought one to get the most out of their boats by sharing information with other owners. Prospective buyers have joined to ask questions and learn—most who do get one.

My 3rd inflatable but my first Cat. WAAAY more space and 15% faster with the same 20hp motor. 24 mph Highly recommend.

I recently purchased the FASTCAT14 by Sea Eagle, and I couldn't be more thrilled with my decision. This inflatable catamaran offers an exceptional boating experience. The FASTCAT14's inflatable catamaran design provides ample space for four passengers. The user-friendly design makes it a perfect choice for spontaneous trips, and the inflatable nature of the boat ensures easy storage when not in use. The FASTCAT14 truly shines when it comes to cruising. The swivel seats make socializing a joy, and the canopy provides excellent shelter from the elements. The boat's stability, coupled with the Honda 9.9 engine, makes cruising a seamless and enjoyable experience. In conclusion, the FASTCAT14 by Sea Eagle has exceeded my expectations. It's the perfect blend of comfort, convenience, and performance, making it an excellent choice for those seeking a versatile and enjoyable boating experience. Whether you're a seasoned boater or a first-time enthusiast, the FASTCAT14 is sure to leave a lasting impression.

Description

Excess Catamarans have been busy since they launched their first model in 2019. First they splashed the 12 and the 15 which used modified Lagoon moulds for the hulls. They followed that up with the Excess 11 which was designed from the keels up.

The second “pure” design is the Excess 14, which continues to develop the sporty DNA of this brand while offering plenty of comfort onboard. The 14 comes with twin aft helms (read our Vaan R5 review for another option with this setup), a low boom, asymmetric hulls to reduce leeway, and deeper rudders along with other enhancements. There are plenty of “power up” options if you choose the Pulse Line.

The Excess “look” continues to develop with reduced windage thanks to a lower freeboard, sporty lines, an aft-set coachroof, a forward stepped mast, a composite bowsprit and inverted bows.

This model has once again been designed with VPLP. Unlike her sisters, she has an overlapping genoa as standard for more power up front and a square top mainsail giving you a very decent SA/D. They’ve optimised the construction too (foam sandwich with carbon reinforcements, etc.)

• The Low Boom, Overlapping Genoa and Main give you very decent SA/D ratios, especially on the Pulse Line
• She’s extremely comfortable with some modular options to make the best use of the space.
• All the lines come back to the helms.
• There is an option for a Sky Lounge, like a Fountaine Pajot, but with no compromise on boom height.
• Foam sandwich with carbon reinforced construction
• Twin aft helms maximise sailing feel and living space
• Longer rudder blades help you pinch upwind
• Textile steering lines for maximum sailing feel
• One piece longeron/bowsprit option
• Not everyone likes aft helms. There is an option for biminis, but the visibility to the forward port bow is through the windows

This is a very comfortable boat that sits somewhere between a Fountaine Pajot and a Nautitech. In the hulls are wide, comfortable beds, and bathrooms with a separate head. There is loads of storage. There is also an option to convert the forepeaks into skipper cabins. If you compare the space down here to something like the HH44 , you will start to get an idea of where they have set the dial on this boat: she’s good value for money.

There are several options on the layout, and they are cleverly targeting couples working from their boats- the “digital nomads” – with a large office area with desk and a flexible space upfront which you can use as a dressing area, workshop or cabin with extra berths.

3 Cabin Version

• A central bathroom amidships
• A big private dressing area
• An option for extra bunks

4-cabin version

• 4 cabins, 4 heads & 4 separate showers
• An optional skipper cabin in the forepeaks
• The skylounge option: lounging space on the coachroof at anchor with no compromise on the boom height.
• A walk-in dressing room

We are looking forward to getting out on a test sail on the Excess 14. The standard set up is powered with 118 m² of upwind sail area that gives you an SA/D (Sail Area to Displacement) of 23.3. That puts you in Nautitech territory. If you go for the Pulse Line, you will be letting fly with 134 m² of upwind sail area with a bigger square top mainsail and overlapping genoa that boosts your SA/D to 26.5. Now we’re talking Outremer territory.

Now chances are that you’ll have more gear on this boat than you would do on an Outremer, and there are no boards. Even so, with deeper rudders and those asymmetric hulls, the Excess 14 will be no slouch upwind and we haven’t even discussed the Code 0 yet.

She comes with textile steering lines to maximise responsiveness and sensitivity

I love the direction that this brand is heading with the Excess 14. I thought the Excess 11 was a clever design and it was great to see more options at that catamaran length. This new boat ticks many boxes if you are after a sportier cat that is still very comfortable. I can’t wait to get out on a test sail.

Excess 14 Review

In this review, we will tell you how the topRik team got acquainted with the latest model of a sailing catamaran from Group Beneteau - Excess 14 . As always - a detailed description of the cat from transom to bowsprit, layout layouts, photos and videos, and, of course, reviews of professional yachtsmen-journalists from the leading media who were the first to see and test the Excess 14. By the way, in the end of the review you will find the answer to the question how to purchase productive, fast and comfortable Excess catamarans at an affordable price.

Excess 14 catamaran model was revealed to the world by Excess Catamarans, part of the Group Beneteau , at an international press conference in 2022. And now, those who want to buy this sailboat, which VPLP marine engineers and designers worked on, are on the waiting list for the second half of 2024.

This newest model in the latest Excess range and its resounding success among yachtsmen has finally established Excess Catamarans as a successful competitor in the double hull cruiser market. For such a young shipyard, this is a great achievement.

But we still remember that many sailors and businessmen in the yachting world met with bewilderment the decision of the Group Beneteau to create practically its own competitor when Excess Catamarans first introduced its first cat. This was because the first Excess somewhat disappointed the yachting world with their similarity to the Lagoon. But the shipyard quickly overcame the costs of growth, which was already evident with the built-from-scratch Excess 11 , and especially so with the release of the brilliant Excess 14.

TopRik team is delighted to be able to offer customers a boat with the freedom and lifestyle that only a twin hull can offer. That being said, Excess 14 owners will not lack the thrill and pleasure of sailing as this catamaran has some serious speed and responsiveness.

Excess 14 by TopRik Team

At the 2022 Cannes Yachting festival some lucky representatives of the topRik team saw, felt with their own hands and walked around the sailing catamaran Excess 14 from transom to bowsprit for the first time. That September the shipyard Excess Catamarans was showcasing two double-hull sailboats and the Excess 14 reveal was the world premiere.

From the Transom Ladder to the Cockpit

Even from the pier you can already appreciate many of the features of the new cat. A significant height of the boards is striking, which ensures high stability of the catamaran even at maximum speed and in heavy seas.

On the transom there are powerful enough davits to lift and hold the motor boat. Between the davits below there is a compartment for rescue equipment: rafts, oars, pumps, etc.

Wide transom steps, finished with anti-slip teak, also serve as a bathing platform, but, of course, stationary. You can only raise and lower here a ladder for descending into the water. Pay attention to how conveniently the lower part of the step protrudes - just a foot further from the curvature of the side. This is an additional convenience, if the boat is moored side-to - no need to climb over the side to get on the deck or climb from the yacht to the pier.

At first glance, even from the pier, you can see biminis above the control stations, which are mounted on solid supports - stainless steel pipes. The continuation of the roof of the cabin (or saloon) hanging over the cockpit creates a cozy atmosphere, protecting the cockpit guests from the sun and rain.

An interesting effect: when you look at the Excess 14 from the pier, the catamaran seems like a very small yacht. But when you get on board, just step on the cockpit deck, you forget that the cat is actually small - just over 13 meters. The merit of naval architects and designers is that they used the width of the boat so successfully and provided the crew and passengers with so much space, volume and height. You don’t feel cramped in this spacious cockpit, where more than 10 people can sit on the corner sofa at the table, large sunbed and transom sofa, and this is not counting the skipper at the helm and his assistant at the helm station on the other side.

While several experts were calculating the capacity of the cockpit, which is important for our clients who are in the charter business, the skipper of the topRik team traditionally went to evaluate the helms.

It seems that his disappointed look is connected only with the fact that he cannot find fault with anything in terms of organizing a skipper post.

Even taking photos of control posts from several angles did not help to identify the shortcomings. Adjustable seats, thoughtful arrangement of the helm panel and winches, the presence of baskets where halyards and sheets are dropped - everything is provided here for ease of control. The panel behind the helm contains all navigation equipment, a large chartplotter , as well as sensors that allow you to control the operation of all Excess 14 equipment.

On the port side, the control post differs only in a smaller number of winches. For some reason, our leader could not find a photo of this post from the exhibition, so we used the official one.

But the starboard side is presented in all angles, and one of them is remarkable in that it demonstrates not only the excellent organization of winches and halyards, but also the width of the deck on the starboard side, as well as convenient handrails on the roof. Moving here is free and safe.

And pay attention to the fact that most of the windows from the cockpit to the saloon are not tinted. This is done so that all parts and opposite hulls of the catamaran are visible from both control posts.

But the deck and handrails along the edge of the roof from a different angle. We appreciate these safe movement features in combination with the presence of high lifelines on both sides.

These wide transparent three-piece doors, which move apart and slide in all variations, lead from the cockpit to the saloon. Yes, Beneteau Group’s daughter company could not help but use this technique of superyachts - increasing the total usable area by combining two different areas.

In the Cabin

The photo below clearly demonstrates how wide the opening gets when you make full use of this sliding structure. And by sliding it to the other side, you can serve dishes from the saloon galley to the cockpit or organize a bar counter from the galley table if you want to throw a party on the yacht.

The divided galley amidships occupies the entire width of the common deck. Everything here is perfectly organized for cooking and storing food. There is a gas stove (or electric at the request of the buyer), a microwave oven, an oven and a full set of auxiliary kitchen equipment.

Pay attention to the metal doors of the floor cabinet on the starboard side - these are refrigerators and freezers. By the way, the same freezer door located in the cockpit is perfectly visible from here. The saloon refrigeration equipment can be used for non-perishable products, and the cockpit freezer is regularly replenished with drinks, ice cream and other products that you want to always have on hand.

Once again, we note the attention of Beneteau Group and now Excess Catamarans to the "little things" that speak loudest of all about how manufacturers care about the comfort and safety of the crew and passengers. We are talking about rounding all joints and edges of furniture – can’t go wrong with this move.

In order to view the entire saloon, let's change the viewpoint to see that the room is divided into several zones. You have already seen the kitchen, now it's the turn to evaluate the dining and working area - the chart table.

You can see for yourself how roomy the Excess 14’s saloon is: 10 more people in the saloon can join the diners (or rest) in the cockpit. This is a solid application for a crowded party while staying in the marina with guests from neighboring yachts.

But while the passengers are sunbathing, eating or relaxing, the skipper from time to time needs to sit down at the helm table in the saloon. Here is installed equipment similar to what you have already seen on the helm panel in the cockpit. This is also a photo from the official brochure, adding a little more atmosphere and romance to our report.

The skipper's table is positioned so that he does not get too bored while charting or checking the course. His friends will always support him, sitting next to him and passing something tasty or refreshing.

Despite the fact that the roof of the cabin, for obvious reasons, is devoid of hatches, there is enough natural light and natural ventilation in the cabin. In addition to a huge sliding door, light and air enter here through panoramic windows, in which opening portholes are mounted.

From the saloon it is natural to go down to the cabins located in both hulls of the catamaran.

Comfortable and Spacious

This “comfortable and spacious” is not an advertising phrase, we often caught ourselves reminding each other: you are on a boat less than 14 meters long... We examined the Excess 14 catamaran with 3 cabins. In this version, one hull is traditionally given over to the owner's cabin with a large island double bed, a living area and a bathroom. This is what it looks like from the living room. As you can see, there is enough height, light and air due to portholes and skylights.

There doesn't seem to be enough storage space here, some of the topRik team's experts have already begun to chalk this up as a drawback, but they've been stopped by those who have made it to the bow of the master cabin. The critics quickly hid their notes, as they were convinced that there was more than enough storage space. As you can see, even the largest family or group of friends doesn't have to limit themselves to picking too much of what they need on a cruise.

In the left hull of the 3-cabin version, there are 2 VIP cabins with double island beds and private bathrooms each. All cabins have separate showers.

In addition to this option, the manufacturer offers a 3-cabin convertible version, when two single beds are placed in the bow of the right hull. A normal option for a family with children or if the yacht is steered or served by invited crew.

The 4-cabin option offers 8 berths in two cabins in each hull with private bathrooms.

For charter voyages, you can also use a place in the forepeak and organize a berth for 2 people in the cabin, using a sofa, a bench and lowering the table to the level of the sofa, in total - 11 berths, and there is enough space for everyone on this "small" catamaran.

On the Foredeck

Since we are talking about the forepeak, it's time to take a look at the Excess 14 foredeck. At the exhibition, the manufacturers did not advertise it as a place to rest. Probably, they were afraid that visitors would start checking the elasticity of the nets, which many call a trampoline.

We agreed that the catamaran would certainly be equipped with a sunbathing area in the bow, and when we unfolded the brochure, we realized that we were not mistaken.

We took notice of Pulse Line sailing equipment option, which, unlike the standard one, is a high-performance version. This option features a square top mainsail like the standard version, but when ordered with the Pulse Line mast increases by almost 2 meters, and 12 square meters are added to the sail area on the windward side, as well as an elongated composite spier, to which Code 0 is attached. Since we could not photograph ourselves under sails, we are posting an official photo that demonstrates the installation of Pulse Line.

To increase the sail area, a forward mast and an elongated bowsprit serve. Instead of the self-aligning staysail typical for most yachts of this class, the Excess 14 has a 120% overlap of the genoa to increase the sail area. We have seen in practice that the boom is located low and is accessible from the saloon roof, so to operate the mainsail there is no need to climb the mast ladder to attach a halyard or reach the reef line.

Advantages of Excess 14

As usual, let's start with the disadvantages instead. Our expert, who controlled the storage areas, nevertheless made a point that there are not enough of them for the galley in the saloon.

All the experts responsible for testing the various positions have unanimously agreed that the Excess 14 catamaran has the following advantages:

• high seaworthiness, including speed and performance, which were achieved solely due to the found reserves and optimization of weight, steering and other structures, making the cost of a catamaran quite affordable for those who want to change from a monohull to a cat;
• safety when moving around the boat, as well as on a long cruise with changing weather conditions;
• enough comfort to make autonomous sailing a real pleasure and not a survival experience in extreme conditions;
• ease of handling, in which an experienced skipper can handle the catamaran alone even in adverse weather conditions.

Reviews of Excess 14 from Professionals

Here are reviews of the Excess 14 catamaran from well-known yachtsmen, experts and journalists from the leading online maritime magazines Yachting World and Yacht World and - Rupert Holmes and Zuzana Prochazka respectively. But first let’s give a word to a group of experts from SAIL magazine who test vessels for Best Boat award.

SAIL editors reviewed the new Excess 14 cat during the boat's US debut at the Miami International Boat Show. This is the first look at this 14 m double hull sailing yacht from Excess Catamarans, which is part of the Beneteau Group.

SAIL journalists, well known as experienced yachtsmen, identified several features on their first encounter with the Excess 14 to ensure that the yacht harmoniously combines cruising comfort with the pleasure of sailing.

The cooperation of the shipyard with VPLP Design resulted in the creation of completely new contours of the hulls and the exterior as a whole. Innovative asymmetric hulls reduce drag on the water mass, and the higher bridge position significantly reduces the impact force in waves. To improve sailing upwind, the keels have also been redesigned - they have become thinner and reach more depth.

SAIL editors also found significant changes in the steering system. The Excess 14's twin helms sit directly above the rudders, which have also been lowered to greater depths. The yacht is equipped with a Dyneema steering system which allows you to feel the helm to the maximum.

Experts noted that naval architects and engineers paid great attention to reducing the mass of a sailing catamaran. To achieve this, foam was used as bulkhead filler instead of plywood, and the load-bearing bulkheads were further lightened with carbon fiber.

A lighter deckhouse design was made possible by having the mast mounted on the deck rather than on the cabin. It also made it easier to access the mainsail via three steps to the boom.

Reviewers cited Thibaut de Montvalon, Excess Catamarans' director, who stated that the new Excess 14 aims to make up for the lack of sailing catamarans for those monohull owners who don't want to sacrifice the pleasure and feel of sailing for the comfort of a double hull sailboat.

Yachtsman and author of Yachting World, at the start of its Excess 14 test report, goes into detail on how Beneteau Group’s developers ensure the high seaworthiness of the new range of catamarans and at the same time offer them at an affordable price.

Rupert Holmes began the review by describing sailing the Excess 14. The boat's speed rose and fell between 7.4 and 8 knots while sailing upwind with a true wind of 12-14 knots. He noted that at the same time the helm is very responsive, and the boat easily maneuvers and quickly responds to changes in the trim of the sail.

Aside from the lack of roll, this kind of sailing experience and true cruising speeds are more to be expected from a 50-foot (15.2 m) single hull cruiser. This is despite the fact that the Excess 14 is a very spacious platform 26 feet (8 m) wide, and it was not produced by a highly specialized manufacturer of single expensive powerful yacht structures, but by the world's largest shipbuilder for all kinds of of yachtsmen.

Rupert cited shipyards such as Outremer and Marsaudon Composites as examples, that produce really great catamarans. But their boats are difficult to handle, and high-tech designs and low production volumes mean high prices.

Further, the author understands why Beneteau Group and her new shipyard Excess Catamarans has the ability to provide yachtsmen with stock boats with good performance and performance at an affordable price.

First of all, the invited VPLP office, which usually deals with racing boats, analyzed the possibilities of reducing the weight of each element of the catamaran structure.

As a result, carbon reinforcement was applied to bulkheads made of sandwich panels filled with PET foam, which are subject to high loads. Low-density balsa filler has been used in those parts of the structure where loads are less high, such as the hull plating. The hull sections are reinforced with resin, water will not be able to penetrate there in case of local damage.

At the same time, the structure is monolithic in the area where the engines and keels are located, and the deck is a sandwich made of foamed polyethylene terephthalate.

Design proposals for furnishing were also based on careful weight analysis. Thanks to this, it was possible, for example, to reduce the weight of the galley by a quarter without the use of expensive foam fillers.

As a result of this optimization, the displacement of the Excess 14 is 12.8 tons, while for other boats of the same size and purpose, this figure reaches 14-15 tons. This is just one of the factors that the developers have used to significantly improve the sailing performance of the sailboat.

Renowned naval architect Vincent Lauriot Prevost worked on optimizing the hydrodynamics of the keel. As a result of the introduction of thin keels, lowered to a great depth, we get an increase in draft by 10 cm, but also 15% increased overall efficiency of the catamaran.

At the sailors' forum dedicated to Excess boats, the developers found out that yachtsmen are ready to accept a yacht with an increased draft of up to 1.48 m versus 1.2 m. The latter indicator is the standard for shallow water anchorages in the Bahamas.

The increase in draft made it possible to halve the length of the chord, and thin keels reduced the resistance of the water mass to the movement of the cat and improved steering response. The helms also dropped by 20 cm.

The asymmetry of the Excess 14’s hulls is characterized by a large external volume and curvature. This innovation reduces the impact force and wave resistance between the two hulls.

The yachtsman and freelance journalist detailed her experience with the Excess 14 catamaran, which she tested in Biscayne Bay off Miami in late March 2023.

The reviewer recalled how in 2018 the Excess line of sailing catamarans was first presented at the Cannes Yachting Festival in France, and what bewilderment this caused among fans of Beneteau Shipyard’s catamarans. It seemed a strange decision, since the Excess cats were different from the Lagoons, but not enough to justify the creation of an entirely new line.

But after the release of the 11th model, these perplexities dissipated. And, in the words of Zuzana, chic Excess 14 confirmed that the brand has finally established its identity, as the latest yacht at the moment is the embodiment of the unique Excess' DNA.

The reviewer specifically noted that the twin helms located in the stern of each hull have direct, rather than hydraulic, control of the rudders. As an experienced yachtsman, Zuzana immediately appreciated the feeling of fast and responsive steering through these helms, which evokes the analogy of steering a monohull yacht. The shipyard’s goal here was to satisfy its customers, 85% of whom switched to their first cat from single-hull sailboats.

New catamarans: 2021’s most exciting launches

• April 7, 2021

Fast cruising is the theme this year, say Toby Hodges and Sam Fortescue, who look at some of 2021's exciting new multihull launches

2021 looks set to be a bumper year for new catamarans as the trend for fast cruising yachts, which deliver plenty if living space continues. This year there are set to be several new catamarans on the market, here’s our selection of those about which we are most excited.

A group of wild enthusiasts in the landlocked Czech Republic are the force behind the new IC36 from Independent Catamaran. The debut model is a fully race-tuned cat that aims to appeal to speed freaks as well as performance cruisers. Oh, and it unbolts to fit inside a shipping container or on a trailer!

Perhaps closer in design terms to the Extreme 40 than a traditional cat, the IC36 has super narrow hulls, high displacement bows and an optional rotating carbon rig with composite stays.

A sporty-looking carbon beam braces the bows and doubles as a bowsprit for asymmetric sails. Deep daggerboards help windward performance, and there’s a racy dual carbon tiller providing direct rudder control.

“The first time I saw it, I just felt like it was from one of Jules Verne’s adventures,” says co-founder Jaromír Popek.

The boat has been optimised for electric propulsion with twin 6kW Oceanvolt saildrives and up to 15kWh of lithium-ion batteries giving a range of a couple of hours. Powerful hydrogeneration under sail keeps batteries topped up. For longer spells at anchor , there is also a decent 1.15kW array of Solbian solar panel s which folds away when not required.

As much fun as this boat should be to sail in its Raw racing variant, it is also available with more creature comforts.

The Pacer model has a coachroof, cockpit tent, more storage and cooking and freshwater systems. It can accommodate a reported eight people in the hulls, with a fridge and two-burner hob to port and a shower/heads to starboard. Or you can opt for a fridge and hob in the folding cockpit table.

Construction is in epoxy-glass composite with local Kevlar reinforcement and foam core, helping to keep weight down to less than 3 tonnes (key for trailering). And there are three buoyancy chambers in each hull, which underpin the claim that the boat is unsinkable.

For all the variants, the light weight and high-performance rig means you can sail in a breath of wind. In a blow, the sky should be the limit. Expect reaching speeds of 20 knots plus, particularly if you take the high-modulus carbon wing mast from Pauger.

Specifications:

LOA: 11.00m / 36ft 1in Beam: 6.20m / 20ft 4in Draught: 0.85-2.00m / 2ft 9in-6ft 7in Displacement (light): 2,500kg / 5,512lb Price ex VAT: €295,000 (for RAW) Builder: www.independentcatamaran.com

This new launch from the world’s number one catamaran brand is the largest in the range of ‘regular’ boats, before entering the more luxurious world of the Lagoon 65.

It has been drawn by VPLP and Patrick le Quement, whose design nous has done much to make cats more mainstream. Many of the features, therefore, will be familiar from the smaller boats.

However, that extra length creates more volume below, so the Lagoon 55 can be arranged with up to six true double cabins with ensuite heads. “It’s the first time we have six cabins of the same size and function and a larger flybridge,” explains products developments manager Martina Torrini during a premiere virtual tour of the first model to launch in March.

Another first is the curving steps up from the transom skirt to the aft deck, dubbed ‘the stairway to heaven’. “The surfaces of the transom can be used differently,” adds Torrini. “Not just a way to access the boat, they become in themselves a living area.” This feature extends the size of the cockpit to 25m2, and even offers a plancha grill.

There’s more social space on the huge flybridge (with fridge and bar) and a movable sunpad on the forward part of the coachroof. The boat also features Lagoon’s first ever dedicated forward cockpit, connected to the saloon by a drop-down window.

A 107m2 fat-head main provides grunt, but is coupled with a self-tacking jib. As with all Lagoons, the emphasis is on comfort and ease of use rather than speed and windward pointing ability.

LOA: 16.56m / 54ft 4in Beam: 9.00m / 29ft 6in Draught: 1.55m / 5ft 1in Displacement: 26,500kg / 58,433lb Price: €tbc Builder: www.cata-lagoon.com

Fountaine Pajot Samana 59

Replacing the five-year-old Ipanema 58, this luxurious 59-footer integrates many of the new design features of the 45, which boasted longer, wider hulls that nevertheless showed 10% less drag. Chief among the new attractions is an enlarged cockpit, forward lounge and flybridge, for more socialising space.

“We wanted to emphasise her identity by optimising her interior and exterior spaces to make this 59ft catamaran the equivalent of a larger yacht,” explains designer Olivier Racoupeau.

“Whether it’s the flybridge, the cockpit or the saloon, we’ve worked hard to find harmony between all the living spaces on board, to gain every millimetre inside and outside.”

There’s a door forward out of the saloon, and the option of a hydraulic bathing platform, which doubles up for tender storage. Up to six cabins are offered, and the rare option of putting the galley up in the saloon or down to port. Hull number one is joining the World ARC .

Meanwhile, a new 51 is tipped for launch in 2022, which will focus on sustainability and have 2kW of flush solar panels built into the flybridge.

The new 42 replaces the Leopard 40, and it draws on the latest design thinking from the larger boats in the range. Like the award-winning Leopard 50, it has continuous hull windows, a hardtop, and contrasting coachroof accents. But it also goes further, with plumb bows and long horizontal chines.

That lounging space on the coachroof adds 65% to the exterior entertainment area. “By integrating the geometry of the lounge into the GRP hardtop, we were able to achieve a lightweight area that added less weight to the boat than one average sized crewmember,” explains Michael Robertson, chief designer at builder Robertson & Caine. It has been cleverly engineered so as not to steal headroom from the cockpit.

In contrast to many modern cats, the Leopard 42 makes a virtue of the separate cockpit and saloon, whose seating is focused on the forward galley. There is lots of glazing and a full-height door out onto the foredeck. Every cabin has a third more floor space and twice the glazed area of the old Leopard 40. Each has an island berth and its own heads with shower.

But it’s not all about space. “Performance potential remains one of the top priorities,” says naval architect Alex Simonis of Simonis-Voogd Yacht Design. “We spend a lot of time refining the rig geometry and the sail layout to boost the efficiency of the rig plan. At the same time, the ongoing refinement in hull and appendage design allows us to create a yacht with better sea motion and more agility.

The new entry-level yacht from France’s Neel Trimarans is designed to bring the world of three hulls to a new clientele.

Building on the success of the larger Neel 47 and Neel 51, the 43 takes the fight to the catamaran, with a big superstructure that includes two double cabins as well as a galley and saloon.

There’s a further double cabin forward in the central nacelle, and cosy singles in either bow. A sliding door and window allows the saloon and the cockpit seating areas to be socially connected, although they remain two very different spaces.

The bulkhead helmstation to starboard has commanding views out over the huge coachroof. From the drawings, this appears to allow a tight sheeting angle for the genoa, but brings the mainsheet, which is fastened to the transom, close to the davits and skirt of the central hull.

The main is square-topped with two full battens and there is also a high-performance carbon spar option.

Though the lay-up is in standard foam-cored glassfibre, Neel says it is leaning towards more environmentally friendly construction. Interior joinery is from sustainable Alpi wood and recyclable material.

Marsaudon Composites has quietly built an enthusiastic following for its TS42 and TS50 catamarans since the smaller boat was launched six years ago.

That these have been the first boats to cross the Atlantic in the last two ARC s has also done its reputation no harm.

The yard is based at Lorient La Base, at the heart of the French offshore racing scene, so it’s perhaps no surprise these designs are lightweight and offer plenty of performance.

The direct tiller steering, which gives a responsive feel to the helm, is an example of the thinking that sets these boats apart from other multihulls and makes them sought after models. Yet they also have enough space both on deck and below to offer very comfortable living.

A 57-footer from the board of Marc Lombard will be the third design to join the stable. It shares the same hallmarks as the existing models, although a wheel steering option will also be offered.

In suitable conditions this is a cruising yacht that can be expected to hit speeds of well over 20 knots.

The hull shape is clearly a progression from the earlier models, while following the same light displacement principles with fine hull shapes. Lombard drew a new shape for the bows to increase efficiency and reduce the tendency for bow-down trim. He told us: “The bows are shaped so that, when the boat is powered up and starts to heel, the lee bow will generate extra lift to push the bow up.”

The additional size makes the interior spaces of this boat significantly larger than those of the 50-footer, especially in the hulls. Much thought has also gone into ergonomics and weight saving, stripping out and simplifying anything that is not essential. CEO Damien Cailliau likes to draw on a quote from Colin Chapman, founder of Lotus Cars: “Simplify, then add lightness.”

As an example, there are no hull linings, which saves weight and complication, but requires extremely neat moulding. “A core competency of Marsaudon Composites is that we produce excellent mouldings,” says Cailliau, “so we don’t need to hide our work.”

Outremer 4X on test – a high-performance liveaboard cruiser that is built to last

Seawind 1260: Lightweight catamaran making waves on both sides of the Atlantic

The Seawind 1260 has been well received in the States, where the brand has a strong following, but these multihulls…

As a low volume builder – only 28 of the smaller boats have been built in total – Marsaudon Composites can offer semi-custom interior arrangements, providing they don’t add unnecessary weight. The boat can also be built with varying amounts of carbon to reduce displacement further.

At the same time as announcing this design Marsaudon launched a rebranding of the range, which will now be known as Ocean Rider Catamarans (or ORC). The new name is a better fit with the qualities with which owners identify than the Très Simple concept that led to the original TS designation.

To underscore the difference between these boats and the majority of catamarans in this size range a tiller has been incorporated in the logo.

Tooling for the ORC 57 is under construction and the first boat is scheduled to be unveiled in September 2021.

Current Marine CM46 & CM52

The founder of RS Sailing , Martin Wadhams, is a racing sailor who now spends more and more time cruising.

Martin and his wife, Amanda, enjoy sailing fast boats and have spent some time looking to upgrade from their Pogo 12.50 to a multihull. Their search for a true performance cruising catamaran – and one that wouldn’t cost seven figures – turned out few viable options.

Australian-based designer Jeff Shionning put them onto some fresh designs he has done for Current Marine, a new South African brand formed from an experienced team of composites experts at Knysna, between Cape Town and Port Elizabeth on the south coast.

It has been set up to build the new CM46 and CM52 in low-volume semi-custom production. On visiting the yard a year ago, Wadhams was impressed enough with the high tech builds to order the second CM46.

He reports that the joinery is all laminated in, there is plenty of opportunity for layout customisation (in three or four cabins) and, owing to the lower labour costs in South Africa, pricing is keen.

Shionning’s CM designs are lightweight, efficient catamarans that should be able to sail well in light breeze and outrun weather systems in the open ocean.

Key features include daggerboards, fine bows, centralised weight of engines and tanks, and high bridgedeck clearance. The rig is also positioned amidships for optimum weight centralisation, while also helping to create a large foretriangle for flying a range of furling headsails. Aluminium or carbon spars and diesel or hybrid propulsion are offered.

Wadhams says there is good stowage space and payload capacity for comfortable liveaboard cruising. “They’re built using post-cured epoxy, carbon, E-Glass and PVC foam-cored laminates – a level above mainstream brands,” he insists. “This brings the construction found in a few larger, high-end boats into smaller-size catamarans.” The first CM46 is a full carbon racing version destined for an Auckland-based owner and is due to launch early 2021. The second boat (for Wadhams) has a more cruising-oriented spec.

Seawind 1370

Is this the most popular new design of 2021? Although the first of this new 45ft model is not due to launch until later in the autumn, there has already been a phenomenal uptake in orders.

Publicity has been helped by vloggers Sailing Ruby Rose ordering one of the first boats, but a staggering 55 have been sold already. This has led to the Australian/Vietnamese yard establishing a new technical department that is separate from the production department.

European sales manager Jay Nolan says this 13-strong team is tasked with working up every system on the boat and looking at hybrid solutions.

CATAMARAN SAILING

Sailing gives the ultimate sense of freedom, blasting across the water with no agenda or a care in the world. This couldn’t be more fitting when sailing the RS CATs. Durability, convenience and fun are the hallmarks of the RS CATs. Simple to rig, simple to sail and yet packed full of modern features that make ownership and boat handling an absolute breeze. The RS CATs have stability and space so you can enjoy the excitement alone or with family and friends. A new design protected system for joining the beams to the hulls gives increased stiffness compared to other rotomoulded polyethylene catamarans, with the added bonus of allowing the boat to be disassembled quickly for storage or transport. From fantastic family fun to SailGP Inspire Racing, the RS CATs really do offer all the versatility and the awesome performance you would want.

Even under main and jib alone, the RS Cat 16 sizzled along, its wave-piercing bows doing their thing while a pair of laser-beam-straight wakes stretched out astern. A few minutes later, we hoisted the A-sail, and life became very satisfying indeed.

2002 HOBIE WAVE 14 FOOT SAIL BOAT READY TO SAIL

Beacon Falls, Connecticut

Category Catamaran Sailboats

I bought this with hopes of learning how to sail. I realize now that I am not going to learn to sail this year due to my busy schedule already. The boat is located in Middletown CT and I maybe able to drop it off at your location. The boat is a 2002 Hobie Wave 14 foot. It took me a while to find this boat. I see many older (80's and 90's) that sell for $1500 to $2000. I have not found another 2000 or newer model for sale anywhere. The sail was new last year and the rest of the boat is in very good shape and is 100% ready to sail. Low ball offers will be automatically be declined. To replace this with a new one is well over $6000.00 so I think I priced it fairly. https://youtu.be/eLqiHS7aSG8

Spanning 115 feet, the newest composite multihull is fitted with Sunreef’s custom-engineered batteries and state-of-the-art electric engines. Solar panels will also be embedded into the hull sides, superstructure, and bimini, allowing the cat to generate power from the sun. The yard has previously added this patented “ solar skin ” to several models, such as the newly unveiled Explorer Eco 40 , the Eco 100 , the Zero Cat , and the 80 Power Eco .

Sunreef didn’t share any details regarding speed or range for the new 35M Eco, but the aforementioned 80-foot cat is powered by 360 kW electric motors that can push it to 10 knots. The newcomer theoretically has an “infinite range,” given it can continuously get power from the sun so long as it’s shining. The clean, emissions-free energy would also power the hotel load at anchor.

The 35M Eco is not only sustainable but also spacious and stylish. With a beam of 48 feet, the yacht offers expansive living areas onboard. Positioned in the bow of the main deck, the owner’s stateroom provides stunning panoramic views and private access to an outdoor terrace. The luxurious guest accommodation, meanwhile, is located in the hulls and is fully customizable.

The 35M Eco offers an abundance of alfresco lounging areas, too. The vast walkaround aft deck, which Sunreef calls the “ocean lounge,” gives seafarers easy access to the sea and a hidden garage stocked with water toys. In addition, the sprawling flybridge features a plunge pool and bar.
