This design is also more efficient by providing outstanding upwind performance with the daggerboards down, and best performance with daggerboards up in a reaching or running sailing angle. Instead of opting for fixed keels, a daggerboard configuration was chosen based on the advantages of providing lift, and lateral resistance versus drag. The advanced hydrodynamic shape of the hull, designed by world renowned naval architect Germán Frers, utilizes the optimal length to beam ratio to minimize the wetted surface and deliver true performance. Displacement, hull shape, and sail power are the key design features of an OE. In order to be called a true luxury performance offshore cruising catamaran, the width of the OE60’s hull has been carefully balanced for performance and splendid liveaboard comfort. A four, five, and seven cabin arrangement remains a part of the custom layouts available. The six cabin arrangement provides a generous amount of personal space and comfort. The OE78 offers a unique balance between comfort and performance and will not be overtaken by any other catamaran in her class. The fully customizable layout is designed to operate with three to four crew depending on intended use. Designed with the same efficient hull shape as her sister ships, the additional length and width creates room for a spacious master cabin as well as VIP cabins, all with exemplary attention to detail in a timeless design. The OE78 will embody the Scandinavian archetype of the OE60 and OE72 while expanding on the core features to become the ultimate maxi catamaran. Whether you plan to cruise stylishly around the world or race comfortably at 25+ knots offshore, the OE78 will be the perfect platform to reach your goal. The combination of high performance and abundant living and entertaining areas makes the OE78 comparable to a 100’+ performance cruising monohull, while maintaining a very shallow draft to reach more destinations.
