The first Makai model was launched... during the International Multihull Show. So it was a little late to join the multihull mecca at La Grande-Motte, but an appointment has been made for the World Premiere at the Palma International Boat Show, that runs from from April 25 to 28.
The first pictures sent to us by the yard confirm the promises of the earlier renderings: the Italian design of Emanuele Rossi (ERYD Design), offers this powercat sedan sporty and attractive lines. The catamaran concept is of course exploited so as to offer reduced fuel consumption, impeccable lateral stability and a level of comfort pertaining to a much larger boat. The tunnel between the hulls has been designed to create a shock-absorbing air cushion in rougher seas. The deck plan provides access to the water - or the beach - at the (Kevlar®-reinforced) bow and at the stern. The engine legs can be raised, allowing the boat to take the ground with total safety. This model will be available in Open or GT version. We’ve already booked in for a test in Split.
