Multi-hull ships are typically more stable and have a larger space to work with. As such, clients who want a luxury yacht brimming with upscale amenities tend to commission the former. On the other hand, should they also require thrilling performance on top of everything else, the T-2000 Voyager has already been tested in extreme conditions.

Designed and built by Safehaven Marine, reports talk about owner Frank Kowalkski’s recent exploits aboard the power catamaran. This sleek 70-footer hails from the yard in County Cork, Ireland. The story highlights how the watercraft was in its element, even against 15-foot waves and 70 mph winds.

At the height of Storm Kathleen earlier this year, everyone was on high alert as they took shelter. Surprisingly, the T-2000 Voyager went out for sea trials to prove its mettle. According to the people behind its development, 65-foot waves shouldn’t be a problem. “The stability in beam seas is key here,” noted the executive.

Kowalski adds, “While we were out recently in a Force 8 with 40-plus knot winds and 12-foot seas, we could stop and leave the boat to drift while we retrieved a drone. It just took the waves on the beam with ease. It would have been rolling so badly in a monohull that you couldn’t have stood on the deck.”

v The T-2000 Voyager can reach a top speed of 57 mph. Even in the roughest weather, the helm provides comfort as seats with diamond-stitched leather line the interior. Owners can also look forward to an impressive range of 1,700 nautical miles at 18 mph and even farther at lower speeds.
