Voyager V1040 Flybridge

Catamaran design over the years has favoured practicality over aesthetics, and thus limited the hull's potential appeal. But no more, writes David Granville - Voyager's new V1040 Flybridge is the cat's whiskers

Powered catamarans have long been recognised for their excellent seakeeping ability and performance, which is probably why they are the boat of choice for rescue organisations and commercial operators alike.
