OMG NEVER SEEN ANYTHING MORE BREATHE TAKING THAN THIS EXQUISITE CATAMARAN CUTTING THE WATER LIKE THAT TAKING YOU TO NEW ADVENTURES AND ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES!!!!! 💘💘💘💘
Simply fab 🤩
Congrats Gino.....lookin awesomesaucy !!!!
Great you like it.
The tiller steering looked fun from that position.
That is perfectly the yacht I would want to own and sail around the world with... 😍⛵
Sure you can.
@@HHCatamarans not yet, but I am on a good way to affording it! And then you'll hear from me in a few years! 😊
Amazing!
Dream yacht
Great boat
Thank you very much.
So perfect;)
Thank you very much. Great you like it.
Jiminy crickets are the lines of that beast completely bad ass, or what? And the tech!
Can they make one out of titanium next? There's rumors that Ti is "too expensive". For production boat volumes. It doesn't make sense yet, but the custom yacht and super yacht markets can absorb the expense if you can convince the players it's a SUPREMELY RATIONAL choice.
There is a world of unexplored applications for Ti in the marine sector. It's all about knowing material properties and loads on component parts and hull loads.
I'm sure lots of folks are working hard prototyping and testing. Like anything, change comes slowly, but I have a sense that carbon fiber is gospel for racing hulls and various parts, but I imagine 90% of the industry engineers might scoff at the idea of a titanium hull that will last an eternity and is farrrrrrrr safer than CF when it comes to failure modes. I've seen first hand how brutal a sudden failure can be with carbon fiber frames and parts in the cycling and motorsports world. That stuff is a knife. With Ti, you have many warnings before a deformation and failure happens...Warnings that even complete noobs to boats would notice. Please note I use the term "noob" here with respect. Us puter engineers on the internet since forever love noobs, and for myself, being a noob, so long as the noob tryna teach me something wasnt him or her self a noob 3 fortnights ago. 😊
For this to make sense (my point), I mostly think from a performance perspective. As in building the lightest possible boats to win races.
I friggin' love carbon fiber, but it's weaknesses are legendary. For me the failure mode is horrifying. Because it's more dangerous. And the big limitation and ? mark is it's off ply behavior. SO WEAK.
I'm probably just lazy. I'm the last guy that has any more patience for thorough prototyping and testing to make sure that the predictive modeling and simulation game holds up in the real world. Also, I'm just an engineer on the internet that loves sailing and building cool stuff. Not an industry pro.
Well, I enjoyed the thought exercise. Hope you did too.
I have yet to find a video of the interiors of your boats usually just people's hair blowing in the wind.. Good job HH
Thank you very much.
Really great but would really loved to have seen some interior shots
the boat is still a work zone at this point, so the interior is not quite camera ready. soon enough!
What an amazing catamaran. It really looks great, and I believe it performs well?
Sure it does.

Nice video. One thing I would like to ask. Why the daggerboards are so long sticking out when not used, in comparison to other brands with daggerboards ?
That's a great question. For a daggerboard to be most effective, it needs to reach the undisturbed water deep below the hull, and to have the maximum amount of surface area to prevent lateral drift. The trade off is additional drag, so the board need to be as skinny as possible and as light as possible, but this also means they need to be incredibly strong to withstand the loads. For this reason, we use pre-preg carbon fiber to build our daggerboards and test each one in our factory using a jig before installation. This isn't a cheap process, but the performance improvement is undeniable. So to answer your question, most other builders use simple, short boards in order to save cost (at the detriment to performance).
hope one day we have a boat like this fully automatic. i want to be alone on the boat and try to never come back to fast land again.
@ Agree, yet at the same time, some automation, like furling sails on electric winches, can make storm and short handed sailing much easier.
Come and sail with us.
Any thoughts of an electric version?
Or a hybrid system: one electric drive, one diesel drive with high output alternator, one generator.
@@machinesandthings7121 Or a serial hybrid: electric motors powered from batteries charged by wind, solar, regeneration (sail power) and backup diesel generator for long passages (rarely needed due to sailing performance).
Parallel hybrid with one diesel hull and one electric hull, as you mention, is also highly viable. Has full redundancy. High output alternator on diesel hull could also charge propulsion batteries in electric hull.
All HH Catamarans now have the option of Shaft Drives or Sail Drives. Our EcoDrive Parallel Hybrid features shaft drives and is available on all of our boats. But if you prefer traditional diesel engines and sail drives, we can do that too. Please visit our website for more info or email us at sales@hhcatamarans.com. Thanks for watching!

How much flexibility does the owner have to pick out interior finishes and colors?
A great deal of flexibility! We offer a large choice of finishes, layouts and hull colours. To date we have launched 6 hulls and no two are alike.
@ It's a full Carbon, semi-custom, near racing yacht.
HH now has a fiberglass version of the 50, which is lower priced than the full Carbon HH50.
