AY60

The AY60 we discovered at La Grande-Motte is destined for crewed charter work: this powercat, making its world premiere at the show, is already scheduled to head to Split, Croatia, for its summer season.

The Thailand-based builder Adventure Yachts offers a very modern design with this new model, featuring inverted bows. Notable features include two 300 HP diesel outboard engines and a displacement that is particularly light for this category (just 18.5 tons) achieved thanks to its relatively fine hulls and, in particular, the meticulous glass/epoxy and carbon/epoxy construction.

The AY60 offers optimal self-sufficiency when it comes to energy thanks to its 8 kWp solar panels and 1,800 Ah 48-volt battery. The powercat also boasts a range of 3,000 nautical miles at 8 knots.

The series includes the AY60 Sport and AY60 Flybridge versions, available with hybrid or outboard diesel engines. Three further hulls are already in build.
