Aion 52, 56 and 60

A New Range of Catamarans

We recently gave you a sneak preview of the three trimarans soon to be offered by Independent Catamarans... but there’s more: the Czech builder has announced three more new catamarans measuring 52, 56, and 60 feet.

These models are at the top end of the performance spectrum, pitting them against Cure, HH and ORC Catamarans. The designers have focused on creating a sleek, understated but instantly recognizable design. These boats will offer numerous customization options.

Initial images reveal a pronounced inverted deck sheer, very fine bows, a long bowsprit and an aft-set coachroof with an aerodynamic profile. The Aion boast very light displacement thanks to their meticulous composite construction - these catamarans will of course be equipped with daggerboards to optimize performance close to the wind and reduce the wetted surface area as required when on other points of sail.
