transatlantic power catamaran

Catmar Explorer® 55 Power

An ideal ocean-going explorer power catamaran for worldwide blue water cruising and circumnavigation.

The hulls, deck, deckhouse and the entire structure are made of certified aluminium. Safe, strong, reliable and robust!

The result is a stable, homogeneous and torsion-resistant structure without the annoying creaking noises that can occur with GRP constructions or mixed forms - such as hulls made of aluminium, deck and superstructure made of GRP - in rough seas.

Catamaris ®  is committed to environmental friendliness and sustainability. Numerous building components can be recycled and reused in an environmentally friendly way, see below.Built in our shipyard in Holland.

Description

Perfectly designed for a small crew, e.g. for a couple, even with children or occasional guests. 

The flybridge with 30 sqm offers space for relaxing and dining and an outside steering position. For bad weather, the comfortable inside steering position is a safe place. Also available in a well thought out layout for wheelchair users.

The yacht is built from class 5083 H 321/H111 aluminum, which is certified by "Germanischer Lloyd, Bureau Veritas or Lloyd's Register". Our Explorer catamarans are equipped with bow reinforcements and crash boxes with watertight bulkheads.  More about the advantages of aluminium .

Strong highly effective foam insulation throughout the interior provides protection against heat and cold and contributes to a pleasant interior climate.  

Available with conventional diesel engines or with the innovative electric hybrid system "Green Eco Power Supply".

With the optional extra fuel tanks, transatlantic range is possible at Eco-Speed.

At 174.20 sqm, the Catmar Explorer 55 Power offers particularly large living/usable areas. Headroom in the saloon 2.10 m, in the hulls 2.05 m. CE Certification Category A with 12 persons.

Optionally available reinforcements, approx. 30 cm above and below each of the 4 waterlines, provide increased protection against containers, flotsam and ice in Arctic waters.

Design according to your preferences

The design of the Catmar Explorer 55 Power can be customised to your individual requirements in terms of the flybridge design, the number, layout and design of the cabins, the saloon, the interior fittings, the furnishings, ceilings and walls as well as the entire technical equipment.

Alternatively, a completely new "full custom" design is also possible according to your preferences and ideas.

The designing and construction costs are comparable to those of some semi-custom manufacturers. However, with Catamaris® there are no restrictions on the realisation of your ideas and desires thanks to the "full-custom" construction method.

In the final result, every customer gets his Catmar Explorer® catamaran exactly as he wants it!

• LEEN 72 Power Trimaran

The LEEN 72 Power Trimaran is an avantgarde, long range cruising multihull.  She is perfectly capable of transatlantic voyages and even living aboard in high latitudes.

The LEEN 72 is wide multihull and consequently she has another benefit beyond range and stability. Her interior and exterior areas are reminiscent of a 100-foot monohull! She is 29 feet wide, which translates to 1,378 square feet of useable space.

Unprecedented Cruising Range. Experienced Composite Construction

Built in a state of the art composite process this innovative power trimaran has a range of 3000 miles. Fuel up only once a year! Consequently as with all LEEN power multihulls, a large single diesel engine is accompanied by twin electric drives in the outer hulls. Experience silent maneuvering in port with the electric pod-drives. The LEEN range is a true hybrid electric multihull and a large generator acts as an effective range extender. With just the electric drives the boat is capable of speeds of up to 5 knots. Typical cruise is around 10 knots and consumption is a super-low 2l/hour. Discover fuel economy of up to 10 times more than a classic power trawler!

Choose your Interior. The Options are Endless

The 72 comes in either a three- or four-stateroom setup. Both options feature a very private, main-deck master with an athwartship king-size berth. The spacious owner suite can either be situated on the main deck or in the main hull forward. The choice is yours. Enjoy the expanse of the LEEN’s flybridge. It encompasses 500 square feet of space and is highly customizable, with lounges, sunpads, and dining tables. All bespoke to an owner’s particular tastes.

The main deck is flush between the cockpit and the salon, making the transit from the exterior to the interior seamless. This is the DNA of a thoughtful design. At the interior helm, a comfortable nav seat for two is to starboard and is accompanied by settees to port, which provide guests perfect sea views.

Avantgarde Design. Experienced  Build Team

The LEEN 56 Power Trimaran is a true shorthanded vessel. This boat is a true liveaboard yacht, which can easily be operated by a husband and wife team. NEEL and LEEN trimarans offer their full experience of having built more than 2000 multihulls.
