SilverCat Expanding With Two New Models

The yard is adding two new models to the SilverCat lineup which will now have an entry-level vessel at 22-meters long and a slightly larger SC24 (23.9-meter).

The first hull in the entry-level SC22 is actually under construction and fairly advanced with the aluminium hull and superstructure mostly completed already...

Cigarette Racing 52 Thunder
Cigarette Racing has a new boat and it is called the Cigarette 52 Thunder. In the last few years the news cycle has been preoccupied by the 59 Tirranna from this builder. It is good to see them stepping back at this juncture in terms of length and not bringing a longer boat than the Tirranna. The Thunder was introduced back in June and represents a new path forward for Cigarette Racing. It is the first boat launched since the new ownership of the company as well as the first with the new V-bottom. While the Thunder may not be as long as the Tirranna, it has the same 14-foot beam which still will make it a very spacious center console category boat...

StellarPM Reveals SF2603 Design
A new sportfish catamaran design revealed. It is by a company called StellarPM based in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. The SF2603 is a step-up from StellarPM's previous StellarCAT AL2503 and is being developed between the yard and a gamefisherman. "The SF2603 was developed together with an experienced game fisherman who wanted a more stable and comfortable base boat than a traditional monohull sportsfisher could offer. His key requirements were safety, strength, superyacht luxury and the means to cruise between the great fishing grounds off Florida and the Caribbean, Belize and Nova Scotia and cruising areas much further afield when extended cruises with family and friends are in order. We are currently working on the development of a foiling solution which could well take the max speed up to 35kts+," comments Chris Holmes, Principal and Founder of StellarPM...

"Charley 2"; Largest Cat Motor Yacht Built In Australia
Australia is known for building very large catamaran ferries that they export all over the world but catamaran yachts, not so much.

Nordhavn 112 Unveiled By Nordhavn
Nordhavn has just unveiled the design for their latest undertaking. It is called the N112 and as the model name suggests it is a 34-meter yacht in the region of 112-feet. The rationale behind the new design according to Chief of Design Jeff Leishman is to offer all the amenities but with the advantage of manageability. Nordhavn's largest boat was the N120, the first of which was a vessel called "Aurora", which might be too much yacht for owners who want to step up from the N96. The N112 is the perfect bridge-gap for owners who want to step down in size from another boat as well...
