This powercat stands out with a radically different approach from most of its competitors: at just 13' (3.97 m) wide and 41'7" (12.67 m) long, its dimensions are comparable to those of a monohull of the same size.

These proportions are already well proven on American multipowers and Persian Gulf powercats designed for big-game fishing, but remain unprecedented on recreational powercats, which are usually around 3'3" (1 m) wider. The objective is clear: to make marina berths easier to access while retaining the advantages of a multihull platform - stability, generous deck area and reduced fuel consumption. Its typically Italian clean design, minimalist yet luxurious accommodation and construction in Viareggio clearly position this model in the premium segment. During our quick outing in Cannes, we reached 37 knots aboard prototype hull #1 in great comfort; the Vybe 43 should comfortably exceed 40 knots once optimization is complete. The builder is also working on three new models: a 53, a 66 and a 77.
