What do you think..
Definitely this due to the fact that you have a "go fast" look hullshape so the cabin suites that image
Sun flogging in through sloped front is a downer.
What do you think..
This powercat pulled into our dock at Pensacola yesterday and I got to spend a while talking to the captain about it. It's a very large cat - 82' x 32' constructed of carbon fiber.
It was an amazing vessel.

Jeff,
I thought you were doing the loop?
I'm glad you brought up the Domino 20 powercat.
If you really want to have some fun go visit their BlogSpot
DOMINO 20
....and take a look at some of the total distances they have covered from their building place in South America, up thru the Caribbean, up and back down the East Coast of the USA, down Central America, and now holding over in Panama waiting for the next big journey out thru the Pacific.
This is an ocean going powerboat.
I think you naysayers need to go back to the first page of this subject thread and look at a few of the vessels presented there.
Then I would strongly suggest you have a look thru this extensive blog by the owners of Domino, a 20m (65') Tennant powercat that has done a considerable bit long range cruising, including offshore. They are getting ready to do the Pacific now.

By the way, I had suggested that a version of this design could be converted into a 'motorsailer' with the addition of my aft-mast rig.

Some other 'sail-assisted' possibilities.Couple of good photos of some other multihull vessels

BTW Maltese, if you wanted vertical windows on your cabintop superstructure you could have made them look like this design
Do you have any other photos of the M-52 being built besides those two, kinda getting old looking at those same two pics.Speaking of the Indikon project and Journey catamarans, anyone happen to know their latest pricing and what is their speed range? I know Journey cats are meant to be fast and compete with the Mainecat p47 design which I think is prettiest of them all. I dont see any speed range for the indikon motor sailor or powercat, but judging by transom shape and size of engines (170-220hp) each side I venture that they are aiming for maybe low twenties? Our MP52- Trawler was intended for what I thought was that perfect sweet spot of 10-12 and doing so on (75-120hp) each side while sipping fuel. Prices for the Mainecat P47 and Journey 47 are both 889K I believe? Wonder what the new 40ft indikon P4 will be, Did they advertise pricing at boat show? All I can say you might be hard pressed to find a 52ft power/trawler cat for the 450K we are offering the Maltese MP52- Trawler for... Don't even need to mention that the Mainecat and Maltese are only ones made in good old USA. Maltese Catamarans MP52- Trawler
Oh, sorry didn't realize that.N4712, We have plenty of photos on our website which I don't think i can post here but they are easy to google at Maltese Catamarans. Be happy to share a build diary photo log that I've compiled over time with any interested party but will this do for now?
Brian,
Thats a nice trawler cat but not really a fuel efficient option though with twin 370HP and weighing 46000 lbs. I do like the interior though and not bad price at 695K.

....and your photos over and over again....a few too many times.
Actuly, he still can by simply adding a "hat". Most fly edges are not integral anyway. If he doesn't want a fly bridge, he can use the space inside the fairing fore hidden dink storage and sat tv antenna.
Here is a new entre to the field that I think is quite nice looking.
Long Range Cruising Power Catamarans by Journey Catamarans
Sorry, as FF has pointed out I got the decimal point wrong.
It was 90 gal per 5.5 hrs = 16.4 gal/hr at 18 knts
That's 1.1 nmpg
According to the article that is estimated to double at 12 knts of speed...
2.2 nmpg
I'll have to see if I can find an updated fuel burn from the current owner.
Sorry for that mistake.
The owner reports, "Going about 19-20 knots we burn about a gallon a mile, and at 9-10 knots we burn about a gallon every three miles."
