An
85' passenger ferry catamaran in composite materials.
This
85' passenger ferry catamaran design is designed to
carry up to 250 passengers on short trips. In
the US the passenger limit would be 149.
The very efficient sailing cat type hulls take very
little power and generate minimal wake. 980
hp per side gives 32 knots speed. Construction
is foam/glass.
This catamaran design takes fullest advantage of
platen flat panel construction with a vacuum bagging
table. The house is assembled from flat panels,
like a tilt-up building. There is no faster
way construct composite cats, this side of having
the molds already. See the link
