GUNBOAT

Representing Gunboat Asia, we are proudly to be able to work with Gunboat in partnership & to have this great opportunity to introduce such unique and high technology performance catamaran to all sailing masters.

We build the fastest cruising catamarans that can be reasonably sailed in luxury and shorthanded. In under ten years, we have not only launched a new performance luxury segment in the market, we have defined it. Gunboat’s second decade promises to be even better. With our new production facility in partnership with Hudson Wang in Xiamen, China, and an all new series of designs (50’, 60’, 70’, and 80’) launching over the next year or so, the excitement around Gunboat is at its strongest ever. We are very excited to be producing in China and able to serve the needs of Asia and the World.

FEATURES

Visibility: 360 Degree View Whether you ‘re cooking, helming, navigating, lounging, playing, or sunning, from any point it seems there is a 360 degree view of the horizon.

Speed = Safety We believe mega catamarans are the safest platform for surviving the worst weather. Engineered high tech composite structures, clean minimum wetted surface underbodies, and strict weight centralization combine to deliver an easily driven platform for high sustained passage making speeds. 300 nm days are common. 400 nm days are possible.

Retractable Rudders With rudders and daggerboards retracted, Gunboats draw less than a meter of water. Imagine the many shallow waters that are available. For sailing in shallow bays, the rudders may be partially raised, without adverse affect on steering. Imagine the shallow cruising grounds that are now open to explore.

Work & Play Flow is key to design. The indoor-outdoor helm opens up to the forward working cockpit. All sail and anchor controls are two steps from the helm. The aft porch is dedicated to relaxation, and if you like, sun worship. Elements of work and play are kept apart so everyone can put their worries away.
