2025 Multipower Buyer's Guide

60 to 70 feet
These sub-70-foot multihulls still don’t quite officially make it into the superyacht category... but the comfort (particularly when compared to a monohull cabin cruiser) is so much more luxurious that it no longer felt appropriate confining them to our big multipower category. So, from here on in, welcome to the world of Yachting!

60 Sunreef Power/Eco

Luxury Ocean Passagemaker

 
 
Forever Green
The 60 may be the “smallest” powercat in the Polish shipyard’s Power range, but it already has all the attributes of an ultra-modern multiyacht. Easy to handle, this luxury catamaran can be sailed with or without crew. Thanks to its large beam, the 60 Sunreef Power offers an extremely spacious saloon. On the same level as the aft cockpit, this large semi-open space is fully customizable and bathed in sunlight thanks to a skylight and panoramic glazing. The large volumes of the lower deck can be customized to suit the sailing program and lifestyle of the individual owner. The hydraulic platform offers a relaxation area close to the water, perfect for watersports. This model is also available as part of the ECO range.

T-2000 Voyager

The Powercat of Extremes

 
 
The T-2000 Voyager is an all-weather powercat dedicated to exploration and extreme sailing, was treated. To begin with, its performance is particularly breathtaking: over 50 knots of top speed and a record range of 3,000 miles at 9 knots. The T-2000’s hull combines bows that are wave-piercing in their lower section, a traditional slant above, and optional foils, visible through a glass floor. The deck ends 11’6” (3.5 m) from the bow and 3’3” (1 m) from the stern. The beam has been kept to 20’6” (6.25 m). On board, everything has been designed to guarantee real comfort, even in very rough conditions, as evidenced by the interior helm seats that have pneumatic suspension.

Ocean Eco 60 Coupé

A Racier Design Without a Flybridge

 
 
Forever Green
With a sportier design than that of the Ocean Eco 60 Open and the Explorer, the Coupé version differs by having no flybridge. It has only one deck level, but it offers a total surface area of 2,475 square feet (230 m²), while retaining the forward supports of the nacelle that are characteristic to the brand. This reduction in superstructure makes it possible to limit the air draft to just 21’4” (6.50 m) - a dimension more compatible with inland waterways. The manufacturer announces a record range of 2,800 nm with the help of two generators. A full-electric version is also available. The interior promises only the most refined comfort. We’re waiting impatiently for the launch of the first example of this electric ocean-going catamaran!

Sixty Solar Power

Hybrid Propulsion and XXL Comfort

 
 
Forever Green
Following two years in development, Xquisite Yachts, in collaboration with Dixon Yacht Design, set up the tooling for the new Sixty Solar Power at its factory in Portugal – and built the first example. This new powercat features a design typical of the builder, with coachroof supports in the form of an arch. The Sixty Power uses a hybrid diesel-electric propulsion system. Energy autonomy is based on an immense area of solar panels on the bimini and the T-Top. The builder is putting the accent on on-board comfort.

Horizon PC60

Making Her Mark in the United States!

 
 
There have already been more than 30 examples built, and for a 60-foot powercat, that’s a more than respectable result from a commercial point of view. This model, produced in the United States, features a relatively classic design, very motoryacht-like with inclined bows and almost enclosed flybridge - a true upper deck in a way. You can opt for an open flybridge, however. The deck line that rises up in the middle of the hulls is also in keeping with motoryacht culture - as such, it lends the PC60 an original outline among 60-foot multiyachts. Construction and finish are all completed to a very high standard. The Horizon PC60 can be customized on request.

Silent 62 3-Deck

A First Model with Three Decks

 
 
Forever Green
Developed using the Silent 60 as a base, the 62 has gained 35” of extra hull length, but is above all, the brand’s first model with three deck levels: cabins in the hulls, central nacelle, and flybridge. This is, of course, covered by a vast T-Top, which not only provides protection but, above all, is suitable for installing an optimal surface area of solar panels. But the manufacturer goes a step further than the classic open fly version - which is the one we got to test at Cannes - as this third level can also be converted into a closed saloon or owner’s suite.
The drivetrain chosen for this model is identical to that of the Silent 60: despite its displacement now approaching 40 tons, the 62 is capable of covering 100 nautical miles in 100% electric mode - at reduced cruising speed, of course. A kite can also be deployed for longer passages on favorable points of sail.

Builder: Silent Yachts
Length: 61’11” (18.86 m)

Draft: 3’1” (0.93 m)
Displacement: 86,000 lbs (39 t)

Iliad 62

Over 3,500 Nautical Mile Range

 
 
Aboard this long-distance cruiser, the emphasis has been placed on controlling fuel consumption, and this has led to increasing the range to over 3,500 nm. The Iliad 62 is therefore capable of ocean passage-making: with a bridgedeck clearance of 3’9” (1.15 m), it also reflects an architectural design optimized for comfort in the open sea. Moving around on deck is easy, as is access to the huge flybridge. Whether open or fully enclosed, the flybridge can accommodate up to ten people in luxurious comfort. As for the cabins, they each include large bathrooms and beautiful openings to enjoy the sea. The hull dedicated to the owner can integrate a laundry room, a workshop, an office area, or even separate crew quarters with access from the bow.

Class 6 Power

Hybrid or Full Electrict

 
 
Forever Green
O Yachts, based in Latvia, offer a power version of their Class 6 sailboat. After two years of sea trials, the builder has validated the original “Smart Hybrid” powertrain (the builder’s GTS version). In other words, an electric engine in one hull, a diesel engine in the other. The idea is to take advantage of all the benefits of electric propulsion - no pollution, no noise pollution, the possibility of sailing in protected areas - and of the longer offshore range guaranteed by the diesel propulsion. The fineness of the hulls, combined with a displacement of 13 t (28,650 lbs), ready to sail, thanks to the composite/carbon construction, allows for minimal consumption: one liter (just over ¼ US gallon) per nautical mile at 9 knots and half that at 7 knots! A “Full Electric” version is also possible. All sorts of customization are possible: traditional diesel motors, solar panels, a rig with a short mast, kite wings, etc.

GR63

Wind, Sunshine, and Fuel Cells

 
 
Forever Green
Gilles Reigner, the former owner of Catathai, sought to validate a second brand that is both green and high-end. With a doctorate in physics, this Frenchman living in Thailand is well placed to run a 100% electric powercat project whose energy production is ensured by wind generators and solar panels. The GR63 guarantees a cruising speed of 7 knots and a top speed of 18 knots thanks to a pretty wide range of technical solutions - fuel cells (up to 2 x 40 kWh), high efficiency wind generators (2 x 10 kW), a large surface area of solar panels (14 kWp), powerful electric motors and, of course, a large battery bank (between 80 and 270 kWh). The design of this powercat calls for a careful lightweight sandwich construction associated with very fine hulls and optimized aerodynamics. The interior layout and the deck plan are customizable according to the wishes of the owner. A GR80 is also in the catalog - it won’t go unnoticed with its drone and submarine, both of which are two-seaters...

MC63p Offshore

36 Knots Top Speed!

 
 
This racy powercat picks up on some of the design elements from the MC60, such as the angled deck edge, and the aft-set nacelle/bimini assembly. But the hulls, in the forward section, still gain in freeboard and feature a second chine. The trampoline disappears, replaced by a rigid deck. The MC63p adopts high-tech construction: carbon/foam/epoxy on all levels to obtain a rigid and lightweight platform. Two 875 horsepower engines provide a cruising speed of 20 knots, and 36 knots top speed thanks to the addition of semi-foils. The interior has been particularly well thought-out and comes in three versions, with three or four cabins. Large windows - panels and doors - are retractable in order to completely decompartmentalize the nacelle in fine weather. Two flybridge configurations are available. The MC63p Tourer, that features a reduced freeboard and less powerful motors, is also on offer: this version is derived from the former 59p.

Moon 6Ty Power

Motorized Version of the 60 Sail

 
 
Following the Moon 60 Sail, an ultra-comfortable catamaran that was offered two years ago, the Polish boatbuilder has produced a power version that’s based on the same platform. With XXL freeboard and generous superstructures, not dissimilar in spirit to the former Supreme range from Sunreef. Nonetheless, the yard offers a number of options that give its powercat an extraordinary range, such as increasing fuel tank capacity to 1,685 US gallons (6,000 liters). A wide choice is available in the engine compartments, with 225, 500 or 715 HP motors. Moon Yacht has also unveiled a 90-foot (27.4 m) version, the 9Ty.

Serenity 64

Retractable Bimini

 
 
Forever Green
Has the winning recipe for the Serenity 64 become a genuine classic? American marketing and Turkish production. The designers chose to offer a hybrid engine combining two electric and two internal combustion engines: a reassuring and, ultimately, environmentally friendly choice. While the layout is fairly traditional, much attention has been paid to its quality. But what amazed us was the ingenious rigid bimini entirely covered with solar panels, which lowers to the point of almost covering the huge flybridge to reduce air draft and/or windage.

Prestige M8

As Good as an 80-foot Monohull Yacht

 
 
The aim of the M8 is to offer features comparable to those of an 80-foot monohull yacht, and following our test, we can confirm that this is certainly the case. It’s clear that a great deal of effort has also gone into the design, the materials used, and the quality of finish, such as the access to the flybridge from inside, surrounded by glass to avoid breaking the view, the bar between the two aft openings and the hydraulic platform that can be used as a terrace at the same level as the cockpit. While the M8 isn’t a semi-custom powercat, various options, such as having the galley down, will allow this new model to be personalized. The shipyard is also taking a step towards respecting the environment with a Silent Yacht option: a lithium battery bank combined with solar panels will allow the crew to spend the night aboard without having to resort to running the generator.

Power 67

High-end Yacht for Blue Water

 
 
Unlike the Motor Yacht range, designed specifically to be powercats, the Power 67 is a catamaran developed using as a base the flagship of the Fountaine Pajot sailing fleet, the Alegria 67 sailboat. The hull has of course been optimized to meet the specific requirements of multipowers, and to support the power of the engines, which range from 2 x 300 HP to 2 x 435 HP. This is enough to offer speed enthusiasts a wide range of top speeds of over 20 knots, even if the main interest of this type of unit is to go along between 10 and 15 knots in remarkable comfort. Another specific feature is that the Power 67 version offers a flybridge designed 100% for life on board, with the area dedicated to sail handling being reorganized to offer new spaces.

Forever Green
The Supreme range has been available in an Eco (which is to say electric) version since 2022. Since then, it has been available as a custom powercat, whose superstructure front end remains inverted. Green technology is used to reduce carbon emissions as much as possible. Solar panels are integrated into the sides of the hull wherever possible. The solar energy obtained is used both for on-board equipment and for electric propulsion. It is still possible to opt for a traditional internal combustion engine. Fully customizable, the Sunreef Supreme Power offers an infinite choice of layout solutions, including the option of having an owner’s suite with sea view on the main deck. The model presented here is the 70-foot version; an 80-footer is also available.

Lagoon Sixty7

It’s Got Everything You’d Find on a Much Bigger Yacht

 
 
The objective of the Sixty7 is clearly to attract owners of monohull superyachts of 100 feet and over, bored with the high costs and complicated management of their vessel. Lagoon was therefore keen to offer this clientele a more compact powercat that requires a smaller crew of just one or two people. However, comfort has nothing to envy that on a superyacht, even if the famous suspended terrace of the owner’s cabin of the Seventy8, the flagship of the range, is not incorporated. The Sixty7, on the other hand, retains the same sleek design as her bigger sibling. She also offers an exceptional level of finish.

MC66

Blade-sharp Bows

 
 
The initials chosen for this model could create somewhat of a confusion with the McConaghy - it’s M for Mylius, a renowned Italian builder offering their first motor catamaran, hence the C for Cat. The MC66 is a Ceccarelli Yacht Design project, with interiors designed and developed by Parisotto + Formenton. The powercat looks to be very luxurious, with the bulwark sculpted out along the midships section of the deck, lightening the overall silhouette, while offering maximum glazed surface area for the nacelle. The inverted bows are at a steep angle at the top, so that the deck itself starts relatively far back. This configuration ensures good weight centering and will limit pitching. Close to the waterline, the chine should limit spray effects. The 66 will be equipped as standard with a pair of Volvo IPS700 engines, each rated at 550 HP.

Valder Sprint 20s

A Powercat for Modern Adventurers

 
 
When New Zealand offshore powerboat racer Wayne Valder decided to take an interest in building a cruising powercat, the result was always going to be a (very) fast machine! His quest led him to one of the big names in high-performance leisure catamarans, Roger Hill, who designed a large 67-foot (20 m) catamaran equipped with a self-stabilizing foil system. This powercat was then built in a foam/carbon/epoxy sandwich and fitted with a powerful drivetrain (2 x 1,300 HP) to reach 45 knots. Cruising speed is between 18 knots - the speed at which the foils start to work - and 30 knots, where range is still well north of 1,000 miles. The layout can be customized according to the Owner’s wishes, as can the deck layout: the flybridge version can even accommodate a (small) helicopter, though a Sedan version also features in the catalog.

70 Sunreef Power/Eco

A Made-to-Measure Luxury Powercat

 
 
Forever Green
Launched in 2021, the 70 replaced the yard’s former best-seller from the 2010’s, built in 15 units. At 5 feet (1.5 m) more in the beam, the new 70 Sunreef Power fits into Sunreef’s flagship power range which includes the 60, the 80 and the 100. This new unit is suited equally to both private and high-end charter use, luxuriously appointed to accommodate up to 8 guests. This first example features four cabins, of which one is a suite dedicated to the owner. The drivetrain comprises 2 x 850 HP motors compared to 2 x 300 HP as standard, though this model is also available in the ECO version with electric motors. The full deck allows you to take advantage of all the available space, which totals 3,272 square feet (304 m²). At the stern a garage has been designed to house jetskis and other watercraft, and a vast hydraulic platform allows you to enjoy 100% of the pleasures of the anchorage.
