Following numerous requests for a cruising catamaran that was also transportable, Jean-Noël Lebrun has designed a lighter and beamier model than his Palma, with a large carbon bowsprit.
The Ventio has the same hulls as its sibling, but with a larger and completely redesigned nacelle to allow for assembly/disassembly – the idea being to be able to load the catamaran into two 40-foot shipping containers. Each hull houses two cabins, and as an option, one heads compartment is available. The galley can be installed below deck or in watertight lockers on the nacelle, which will be fully protected by covers in the event of bad weather. A rigid nacelle roof will also be available on request. As for the appendages, the options are either skeg keels or daggerboards.
