The "INTRO" would have really been a step up if it was cutting some seas. I am a huge fan of the power CAT [sail too] , i.e. "Freeman" so looking forward to the rest of the experience your about to share !! Back to the video
What a wonderful vessel. I captained a Morelli and Melvin 67 foot all aluminum power cat. Twin 960 HP Catarpillars. Speeds to 40 kts. Very nice displacement power cat. Ran her for about 2 yrs. Very capable in heavy weather. Wet but amazingly smooth. And a joy to handle.
What a great boat. Why not rake the helm station at the same angle as the front window, and use that space to the left. Maybe have the windscreen wiper parked up and out of view.
6:12 for me, as I used the big wheels on 200' ships for four+ years. Love a wheel, and also loving the interior windows in the rooms aLL of them. Nice view from bed wow NiCe !
@@chippyjohn1Common misconception. While the oceans can wreck any boat of any size, catamarans are extremely stable and very resistant to capsizing even in very rough seas. There are catamarans making long passages and circumnavigating continuously.
@@johnbarton2276 personally I would send those used solar panels to Ukraine and let them dispose of them. Since my country (the USA) is sending billions in aid to help them, they should be made to accept all of our toxic shit for eternity.
An exceptional design brings forth capability, comfort and features that are not found on nearly any other previous design. This boat checks all those boxes, and at a price that represents value. A truly exciting boat.
An aluminium power catamaran that that achieve performance, range, ocean crossing capabilities in all kinds of weather conditions, year around, is certainly a game changer. Love the concept! Love the woodwork in the cabin and in the master head. Not so much on the main deck where the woodwork seems very simple by comparison. Why does the helm have to be that high, obstructing a lot of the view from inside the main deck? This boat could certainly use a lifting hydraulic platform to both carry a tender and to serve as a beach club. The Archipelago 47 is certainly an exciting new boat!
Really nice vessel, would like to see stainless steel hand rails installed both in side and on deck. Also would like to see dingy placement, and means of launching it. With that nice flat roof solar set up. It may have lots of speed, but 15 knots would be fine, better mileage.
Greetings from Northern California. Stunning modern clean design. I’m old school so tend to favor monohull trawlers and sailboats but I have to admit this one peaked my interest.
Beautiful and unique design, especially the bedrooms ! But some detail may have been shown, regarding the engines and access areas/other fuel/water, etc.
A compelling clean design with the following observations: Helm: It looks like the helm station is too close to the screens and the screens are too vertical. I am not sure if this is just from the perspective of the camera pointing downward but it feels like the operator's view is blocked by a near vertical control panel. It should be angled further back. Cleats: I only see two port and two starboard cleats on the upper decks. I know there are additional ones to aft as well. Tieing up when sidelong would seem difficult. For single handed operation, unless you are using remotes to control things, one would need to walk briskly through the cabin to get out an tie up (could be tough on a windy day). Port and starboard hulls: They seem just a little on the narrow side. I am sure they help with forward speed but interior space could be improved with just a little wider width on both. Outside access: A forward hatchway to the foredeck might help provide access to the deck for docking. Maybe something on the forward starboard side, opposite the helm? Outside railing: A solid railing at a height above the windows would make side access a little more secure than the cables. Hand holds the length of the roof line would also be welcome. Power: I wonder if this builder is looking into hybrid options. Lots of room on that roof for solar. Final thoughts: On first view it looks amazing. I am not sure I would attempt crossing the pond on it. It would be an amazing coastal cruiser or canal cruiser on the wider canals of Europe. Love your videos. Keep'em coming, please.
Can you mount an optional sail and mast a top it just in case of power loss or solar panels?Plus if you are solo traveling,I want a 50 caliber machine gun on the bow😁....you never know when you will run into Pirates.
A couple of questions come to mind, given the hull design, a Kite-Sail would be perfect to stretch its "Legs" even further; the Roof Rack lends itself for PV Panels so what is the Limits of a LiFePO3 Battery Bank and is there provision for EV propulsion? Is there space for a Tender?
Hi Michael, thanks for your comments. We are absolutely exploring things like kite-sail. Equally we can fit solar panels on the roof. Given this is a semi-bespoke design we will fit propulsion depending on owner requirements. Clearly not a great deal of point fitting solar and EV in high latitudes where this boat will ultimately reside, but a mid-latitudes it's more than possible. Tender will be either crane to roof, or davits depending on owner requirements.
In Australia we pronounce IVECO as i-véc-o, not i'v-co. Which is correct according to the manufacturer? It is like how to pronounce Meile, answer Meil-a.
I love your video about the quasi-industrial design and specs of this beautiful power Cat. I don't like the low-side rails (basically useless and a serious tripping hazard) with their low height. They may look pretty but they are totally useless. I would also like to see a flip-up wave protector in front of the helm windows. One decent wave would bust straight through to the helm. I'm not a fan of the vertical helm station either. The throttles could easily be jostled fore or aft based on waves or other boat movements.
8knots in force 7 10-15 feet seas would like to see the sea trail video for that then i may be impressed and then you can call it an explorer. Not flat sea state like in this test. Also like many of the comments below total lack of solar. But not a bad tub for the med or east coast USA when the sea is playing nice.
Wish there was a look at the other quarters, engines, ect. Not that I've hit the lottery I don't even play yet. :-) This is a really cool cat. I'd love to see the performance of a hybrid.
I’d prefer a more raked forward dash panel instead of the more vertical orientation here. A bit awkward for navigation and throttle use. But this is bull #1 so I’m sure a lot of evolutionary changes are possible as more owners get their hands on her. Overall a beautiful boat. If a power cat can be ISO Certified Class A and get 3000 nm range with decent fuel burn, sign me up. The advantage of floor space on a cat is a massive plus during long distance cruising.
that boat would be incredibly if it had a hybrid drive system, a big battery bank and the roof covered in solar panels. you would basically have unlimited range and the solar panels would easily cover all regular power uses like AC or basically anything else running on the boat.
It's an interesting design but there's definitely room for improvement. The helm station is awful - the console is way too high (really interfering with the view through the windscreens) and far too boxy. Lots of spray coming through the trampoline foredeck - just make it a solid foredeck and hugely increase the storage space and usability. Insufficient seating space for eight people in comfort. No swim platform or dinghy davits/cradle. Overall I like it, especially the bedrooms, but I think hull #1 is a proof of concept.
Hi Ian - indeed you're correct that hull no1 is a proof of concept. We have a long list of modifications for boat 2 including spray deflectors for the inner hulls. The interior is totally customisable and the helm station was designed very much as an industrial / commercial style. This will be changed for all future boats unless owners want a commercial helm. The solid foredeck is an interesting idea, but not something we wish to pursue as it will reduce the sea keeping in very heavy head-seas. Thanks for your comments - all great observations.
I will double check but I am sure that the 3,000 NM range is possible with this configuration but with a cruising speed of 8 knots. I will double check thou 🙌
thanks 🙌 glad you enjoyed the video and the boat 👍 the track is from Epidemic Sound. i cant remember the name of it off the top of my head but if you ping me an email i will find out for you
It's now 2024 and this beauty is likely sold. But if not, you can assume it's now eleventy million USD (roughly the equivalent of 100 carts of groceries). Let's go brandon!
@zedwpd I was being sarcastic. But I do want know where you're shopping! Last Thursday, I filled a little over half of a cart, and it was almost $250. Granted, I had 3 full salmon fillets, 2 ribeyes, and 4 lbs of ground chuck with other items, but I'd love to be able to fill a cart for $200 😭
No autopilot mentioned on the helm station? I assume the raymarine unit next to the VHF is the autopilot? Peronally, as a merchant mariner, i dont like the setup that much, its a bit to stand uppery for my liking. Also, i never get why yachts need a steering wheel? a joystick, or nfu stick works much easier. For the rest, great looking boat, already started saving and dittching the idea of a nordhavn for this. So much more space. Reduce the engines to 110 hp, cruising speed of 8 to 10 knots, and go epxlore the world.
Hi there. Interestingly we have just been talking about ditching the steering wheel. We will, as default, have lever steering and autopilot. There will be a wheel but this won't be part of the helm station, and will form the backup steering system in event of pump failure. Thanks for your comments and interest in the boat.
I can see myself in a an F1 style cockpit ( with more room of course) up on the minimalist flybridge totally encapsulated ! I would like to talk to someone about ordering a 40' but can't seem to find a anyway to get ahold of them on the internet from the USA. All you can do is subscribe to their newsletter? Very odd for a company trying to sell expensive one off boats.
Fantastic to see the future of power boats. Why not show this boat in a proper sea state? Flat water is no test of the things you say she is good for! I think the inner forward hull shapes might need looking at, or deflectors put in place, given the large amount of between-hull water that is hitting the screens hard in benign conditions. Also, why the crappy anchor on a boat of this status?
Not that it doesn't look cool, but why did they put the trampoline on the front? I thought power cata didn't need them because the air wasn't an issue. But, these look awesome.
In very heavy seas, it is better for the water to splash up through the trampoline than to slam into something solid. That or not worry about drainage from large waves washing over the two bows. This boat seems to be geared for heavier seas than typical luxury cats intended for the Med or Carribean.
Hi Wendy, thanks for your comments. We are absolutely committed to being as accessible as owner's require. Clearly - given it's a semi bespoke vessel we will customise as required and can add many accessories to help disabled operators.
Will this be easy to certify for US waters, electric, spares availability. Helm is wasted space imo huge void behind not easy to access so will fill with junk. There isn’t enough instrumentation shown or required to demand such a massive piece of real estate.
Hi Kevin - yes - this can be certified for US waters. Equally the interior is totally bespoke so can be configured to user requirements. Thanks for your comments.
The helm is a bit weird. having the display at that angle makes you look at it from way too far above. I'd like it at a flatter angle that would also give a better view through the front windows from anywhere in the cocküit.
Hi - thanks for your comments. The console in boat number 1 was specifically designed as a commercial helm, with a very large display. As a semi-bespoke boat we design the helm console in conjunction with future owners' requirements.
Nice boat, but the ergonomics of the helm station is ridiculous. It looks fine for standing, but the steering wheel placement is just stupid when you’re sitting.
Console du poste de pilotage trop haute et trop verticale. Pas de porte à l'entrée des cabines. Pas asser de sécurité à l'arrière de la plage arrière entre les flotteurs.( Juste un cable !). Sinon, il me plait bien.

The catamaran design with low profile speaks to the stability of this power cat. Definitely a sea worthy vessel.
Not sure about that, when a wave slaps underneath and flips it over. They are designed for calm water, not rough seas.
@@chippyjohn1Common misconception. While the oceans can wreck any boat of any size, catamarans are extremely stable and very resistant to capsizing even in very rough seas. There are catamarans making long passages and circumnavigating continuously.
Great design leaving new owner to put his stamp on finishing touches consul ect I love it as is
I totally agree!
I would fill that huge expanse of the roof with solar panels!
Great idea 🙌
I’m with you bro
💯
Where will you dispose the pannels when they begin to fail
@@johnbarton2276 personally I would send those used solar panels to Ukraine and let them dispose of them. Since my country (the USA) is sending billions in aid to help them, they should be made to accept all of our toxic shit for eternity.

Sounds like a copy and paste from the Sales brochure 😂😂

piqued
How about potting a 4meter fold down A frame , for a large kite, to power her at 6-10 knots?
Needs an aft motorized platform.
John, an absolutely stunning yacht!
Beautiful and unique design, especially the bedrooms ! But some detail may have been shown, regarding the engines and access areas/other fuel/water, etc.

Absolutely gorgeous it might be the best design I’ve seen on a boat interior and not crazy expensive and so fast!
🙌
Nice. I have never considered a catamaran before, but it has some obvious benefits over a trawler
Like flipping in rough weather?
Beautiful .

Isn't the cockpit screens a bit high? Like it blocks too much of the view for the captain.
How do they do in stormy seas ?? very rocky ??

Can you get one with a fly bridge?
Yes! If you want to find out more, feel free to send me an email: john@yacht-buoy.com
Price ?
Circa £900K for hull number one
What's the load limit on the roof? Park a helo up there!
Hulla cow !!!
Its not a boat its a space ship!
looks nice, but missing some solar panels there
John, beautiful yacht but I still prefer a power cat with the forward weatherproof door to the bow.
Why waste the salon space and make the boat ugly with a forward facing door?
Bigger Wheel would be nice
I can see myself in a an F1 style cockpit ( with more room of course) up on the minimalist flybridge totally encapsulated !

Yeah, sadly missing solar panels!
The big question is where do you put your feet while on watch at the helm?
No helm station is complete without a possibility to put your feet up 😆
Would have liked to see how it handles some rougher water...
Watch this space 👀
Really nice clean and efficient design, but I couldn't live with that helm station, way too cramped.
Um dos mais lindo...

Batten down the hatches 🌊🌊🌊🌊

@Yacht Buoy that was my retirement plan since 2008 at 50 when I backed away from the Babylonian beast system we live in...
What an amazing craft 👏 Sad thing is it's a little out of my price range 😢
This cat looks pretty fast. How's the engines inside?
Work on your celsius to fahrenheit conversion.
How much to buy im malaysian langkawi

I would like to see, a fully disabled access conversion model, for a disabled owner operators.
Hi Wendy, thanks for your comments. We are absolutely committed to being as accessible as owner's require. Clearly - given it's a semi bespoke vessel we will customise as required and can add many accessories to help disabled operators.
Will this be easy to certify for US waters, electric, spares availability. Helm is wasted space imo huge void behind not easy to access so will fill with junk. There isn’t enough instrumentation shown or required to demand such a massive piece of real estate.
Hi Kevin - yes - this can be certified for US waters. Equally the interior is totally bespoke so can be configured to user requirements. Thanks for your comments.
Beautiful needs solar panels all over and just a water power system it's perfect.
Weird they haven't any solar on it and a hybrid diesel engine from start. Look like a nice catamaran
The nets in the front makes it look cheap , like a Hobie sailboat !
The helm is a bit weird. having the display at that angle makes you look at it from way too far above. I'd like it at a flatter angle that would also give a better view through the front windows from anywhere in the cocküit.
How much?
Around £900k 🙌
Any one know what helm chair brand that is?
Hi Andrew - it is an ALU chair. Thanks.
A cat has a strange mixture of some spaces being roomier, while others being much smaller.
Awesome boat... But too bad the captain has to peek over that wall of instruments. Long voyages would be really uncomfortable.
Hi - thanks for your comments. The console in boat number 1 was specifically designed as a commercial helm, with a very large display. As a semi-bespoke boat we design the helm console in conjunction with future owners' requirements.
im not sure where everyone sits? 8 people on that 1 tiny settee?
Unusual looking cat… would have appreciated a more detailed look at the interior.
Check out my yacht tour video here: ua-cam.com/video/8aW_BQy6UPk/v-deo.html
If only it were an eYacht. I'd pay around $2M for something like that.
Seems to meif you really want to sell things you should put up the price
It's much better to get a solid front deck
Would have been great if it was electric or even hybrid, big diesel engines cost a fortune to run
I haven’t seen anything in this boat that is better than the Aquila 70
We're not necessarily trying to compete with an Aquila 70 - it's a very different concept and in a package of 47 feet, and not 70 feet.
Alright, sooo, maybe, JUST MAYBE. This boat is NOT trying to compete with a boat 5 times its price... Not sure if you considered that...
I’ll take one …….in my dreams with my make believe money
Sailboat design without mast
Nice boat, but the ergonomics of the helm station is ridiculous. It looks fine for standing, but the steering wheel placement is just stupid when you’re sitting.
Helm seat = silly
helm on port side = good
no side access door = mistake
Lots of wasted headroom above bed in owners cabin
👍🤝✊️
Is it bad that I don't like it?
Console du poste de pilotage trop haute et trop verticale. Pas de porte à l'entrée des cabines. Pas asser de sécurité à l'arrière de la plage arrière entre les flotteurs.( Juste un cable !). Sinon, il me plait bien.
It sounds really noisy, or the presenter is shouting (or both).
This was filmed before the days when I had a mic lol
Not feeling the helm station. its blocking the view out..too tall. def needs a dedesign. otherwise, beautiful cat!!!!
