Schionning has announced a new performance cruising design, the modern and stylish Arrow 1360.
Schionning says the design concept originated by looking back at the classic Schionning designs, at a time when the primary considerations were defined by need and not greed.
When building your own multihull, there are many factors that can push out the cost and budget of the project. Firstly, your choice of design is important as far as internal volume is concerned, a certain amount of accommodation is going to take a certain amount of materials. Secondly, the 'must-have' choices – while it is nice to have all the bells and whistles this too often blows the budget of any build.
The 1360 is based on her smaller sister, the 1200, but with more room and the weight-carrying capacity for a few extra toys.
The designers tell us that the Arrow 1360’s best feature by far is the simple 100 per cent flat-panel construction method. This design comes as a fully pre-cut kit direct to your door, with only a handful of tools required to get started.
To help cut costs further, the Arrow 1360 kit can be ordered in a shell-only kit, or with furniture, depending on your budget. If your budget is a little more generous, you can order the furniture fully pre-cut, ready to put together. However if you’re wanting to save every penny, you can order a shell-only kit, and piece together the interior as and when you can afford it.
The aesthetic style of the Arrow is really determined by this build process, and without any time-consuming strip-planked curves she has a very modern, stealth styling that should turn heads.
