High-end Catamaran Debut: Unveiling Evo 60, the Epitome of Luxurious Seafaring
The Evo 60, a new addition to the world of luxury performance catamarans, is making waves in the yachting industry. This innovative vessel, currently under construction at Evolution Marine in Cape Town, South Africa, is set to make its debut at the International Multihull Show in 2026.
With a length overall of 18.27m (60ft 0in) and a waterline length of the same, the Evo 60 shares similar dimensions with the Sunreef 60 Power. However, the Evo 60 stands out with its beam of 9.02m (29ft 7in), offering a spacious interior and excellent stability.
The Evo 60 is a testament to advanced composite work, with around 80% of the vessel made of carbon. This high-tech construction method contributes to the vessel's light weight, improved performance, and durability.
The catamaran's emphasis is on spacious luxury, speed, and comfortable cruising. The saloon, inspired by a Miami beach-house feel, promises a relaxing and stylish living space. The Evo 60's draft ranges from 0.63m to 3.28m (2ft to 10ft 8in), allowing it to navigate both regatta sailing and bluewater cruising with ease.
Powering the Evo 60 are twin engines, the specifics of which are yet to be revealed. However, they are expected to be powerful enough to match or exceed the performance of similar vessels, such as the Sunreef 60 Power's 2x 715 HP Cummins engines. The Evo 60 is also expected to have a fuel capacity suitable for extended range cruising.
In terms of luxury features, the Evo 60 is expected to offer multiple cabins, crew quarters, and state-of-the-art navigation and entertainment systems. This makes it a competitive proposition when compared to similar performance cruising cats from HH and Balance, offering a shorter lead time and a more affordable price point.
The Evo 60's design is the work of Anton Du Toit, a top multihull designer, who has optimized the hull shape and dynamic engineering for superior speed and efficiency under power and sail. The vessel's modern look, combined with its innovative construction and premium specifications, makes it an exciting addition to the luxury catamaran market.
