Performance.
The fine hull lines of the Havanas reduce the wetted surface and provide a smooth glide through the water. The Havana catamarans guarantee good sailing performances and a great feeling. The large steering wheel and the location of the navigation instruments ensure the helmsman’s comfort.
COMFORTABLE ACCOMMODATION ONBOARD THE HAVANA CATAMARAN
Light and modularity of spaces
The size of the portholes has been optimized to offer excellent natural light and fantastic views over the ocean wherever you are in the boat. The saloon, which can be adapted to the owner’s choice, is very light and opens widely onto the outside. The telescopic tables allow this spacious and friendly dining area to be converted into a comfortable lounge with a warm and relaxed atmosphere.
