Multihull World Launchings

Rabbit

The boat is designed by Thailand-based office ‘Albatross Marine Design’. This small cat is studied as a budget solution for charter or family use in the Gulf of Thailand. The boat possesses four double cabins, each with a hanging locker, two toilets/showers, saloon with galley. Engines are installed in separate watertight compartments with access from deck. The roof incorporates flybridge with steering station and all winches where four people can comfortably sit. The boat has plenty of privacy spots: stern cockpit is unusually spacious for the boat’s length. A unique feature of this boat is front cockpit – excellent for sunbathing and safe even for kids. Twin 14hp engines with saildrives provide a top speed of nine knots. The boat is 10.46m long and 5.93m wide, 0.85m draft and bottom skegs make the boat safe in shallow waters. The bridgedeck clearance is 0.6m. The boat is designed to be simple and suitable for beginner sailors/family crews. The hull structure is built in sandwich with 20mm honecomb panels. All panels are developable that enables easy assembling. Now a few 34-footers are in construction, as well as a bigger 38’ model.
