Two Oceans 870

Four decks for ocean passagemaking

Two Oceans Marine Manufacturing has been a somewhat discreet player in the multihull world since 1989. It is nonetheless very active, however, since in addition to its own boat ranges (production and custom), the Cape Town-based shipyard also collaborates with its neighbor Balance Catamarans...

One of the next units to be launched this year is an imposing Du Toit Yacht Design incorporating three deck levels - and even four with the flybridge. The main deck, directly connected to the forward and aft cockpits, features a huge saloon and a fully equipped galley. The lower deck offers two cabins and two bathrooms in each hull. The deck above is reserved for the Owner, who enjoys a suite with office, dressing rooms and even a private terrace. The flybridge boasts a panoramic view, lounge area, bar and sunbathing area. The tender is housed aft, on the owner’s deck, and is launched using a hydraulic crane/davit system. The foredeck can accommodate two jet-skis handled by another dedicated crane. The choice of a moderate powertrain combined with a very large fuel capacity will enable the 870 to undertake transoceanic passages.
