RB 38 - Power Catamaran

The boat is built in Nidacore sandwich, with a bottom in plywood - 20 mm of thickness- in order to avoid a keel and let the boat explore the shallow waters, safely, and occasionally be beached.

The wingbridge is extremely reinforced and the transportation on a trailer is possible.

The target of the RB 38 is to fill an evident lack of vessels in this sector of size and costs. Our 38 ' is perfect for a family and for run a charter business, without the expenses and the difficulty related the use of a larger cat, 42 - 45 '.

A huge fly bridge with a fix fibreglass canopy ( a characteristic of our boats, as we noticed that sunbrella canopy or similar cloth, don't last very long in our weather ), large areas studied to enjoy the weather and the sun, and of course, an interior that can be easily adapted to anyone needs.

Apart the structural bulkheads ( in red in the drawing ) that can't be removed or changed, all the interior can be modified and re-designed.

The space aboard is enough for 4 to 5 double cabins and 2 heads (only 1 head if 5 cabins layout is choose).

A family layout could foresee 2 heads and 2 cabins, a studio and a working area, with washing machine or a compressor for diving tanks, or an holder for fishing rods or similar.
