Multihull Solutions has added the new Cora Cat 48 to its range after being announced as the
shipyard’s exclusive Asia Pacific distributor.
The feature-packed family power catamaran is built by the prestigious PMG shipyard who
have been building a number of Silent 60 yachts for the Luxury European Silent Yachts
Group.
Adapted from the original Heliotrope 48, the Cora Cat 48 comprises a host of upgrades
including a full interior and exterior redesign, new deck moulds and a huge suite of features.
The catamaran has been designed with an emphasis on functionality, safety and comfort
and is ideal for weekend cruising or blue-water adventures with an outstanding long-cruise
range of 1,500nm.
Philippe Guenat and naval architect Dr Albert Nazarov designed the Cora Cat 48 around the
principles of space, pace and grace, and the result is an impressive catamaran that unites
advanced construction techniques, traditional craftsmanship, high quality finishes and
contemporary lines.
The Cora Cat 48 features a huge signature flybridge, which is larger than any in its category.
Alongside generous cabins and a spacious galley, there is also ample deck space without
compromising performance.
The Cora Cat 48 also has fast displacement hulls, which deliver effortless speed, high
manoeuvrability and excellent fuel economy. The advanced vacuum-infusion hull
construction technique reduces weight without compromising strength, making handling
easy in all conditions. Her hulls are further strengthened by an extra layer of 5mm SORIC for
chock and impact-resistant protection.
The Cora Cat 48 is not a production boat, so clients can make adaptions to suit their
particular style and cruising needs.
PMG Shipyard was founded in 2004 as a privately held company with Swiss ownership and
management. Strategically located by the sea on the eastern seaside of the Gulf of Thailand, the production site and offices are situated on a 20,800m2 facility with direct sea access and
its own launching pier.
The company’s key management and technical team features a strong European presence
with world-renowned members of the advisory board, allowing the shipyard to develop
technically advanced, stylish, practical, economical and safe yachts. Key management
figures includes NASA astronaut Michael Lopez Alegria and Raphael Domjan who is founder
of Planet Solar. PMG’s technical board provides new developments and contacts with
renowned universities and solar research centres, continuously strengthening their
expertise.
Multihull Solutions has ordered the first Cora Cat 48 to be on display at the 2023 Australian
boat shows, and the first Australian order was taken following the 2022 Sanctuary Cove
Boat Show. The company is fielding strong interest in the model from power catamaran
enthusiasts across the region. The next available Cora catamaran is available for delivery
during 2023.
