A Star is Born: The Omaya 50 Wins the Revelation Award

Story by Andrew Holland / December 18, 2025

The world has officially taken notice. The Omaya 50 takes home top honors and a prestigious nomination for Best Exterior Design in its global debut.

It is one thing to believe you have something special. It is another entirely when the world’s most critical yachting jury agrees with you.

The Multihull Company is thrilled to announce that the Omaya 50 has been awarded the “Revelation of the Year” trophy at the World Yachts Trophies during the Cannes Yachting Festival. In addition to this major win, the vessel was also shortlisted as a finalist for Best Exterior Design, solidifying its status as one of the most exciting new power catamarans to hit the market in decades.

The “Revelation” of the Show

The “Revelation” award is reserved for vessels that do not just iterate, but innovate. It is awarded to newcomers that disrupt the status quo and bring something genuinely fresh to the industry.

For the Omaya 50, this accolade confirms what our team at The Multihull Company has known since we first partnered with the shipyard: this is a boat that punches well above its weight class.

“We knew the Omaya 50 was going to turn heads,” says Will Miller, CEO of The Multihull Company. “But to walk away from its very first major boat show with the Revelation award is a testament to the vision of Omaya Yachts and the execution of the Elica Yard. It proves that the market is hungry for a power cat that balances luxury living with genuine performance.”

Why It Won: Design That Defies 50 Feet

The judges and the public alike were captivated by the Omaya 50’s best-in-class beam of 27.5 feet (8.4 meters). This immense width allows for a saloon and cockpit arrangement that feels closer to a 60-footer, offering a “superyacht feel” in a owner-manageable package.

The nomination for Best Exterior Design further highlights the vessel’s striking profile. Unlike many power cats that can look boxy, the Omaya 50 maintains sleek, aggressive lines while delivering massive interior volume—a balance that is notoriously difficult to achieve.

Key Features that Stole the Show

  • The Beam: At 8.4 meters, it offers unparalleled stability and interior volume.
  • The Flybridge: A massive social zone that serves as a second saloon in the sky.
  • The Finish: Built at the Elica Yard, the industrial precision and build quality were evident to every judge who stepped aboard.

We take pride in our happy customers

Chuck at The Multihull Company is the real deal.
He helped us find our Lagoon 40 after genuinely listening to what we needed, not just what he had to sell. He let us visit the boat multiple times, answered every question honestly, and helped us make a confident decision on a major purchase.
What impressed us most was the post-sale support. Once the paperwork was signed, Chuck was still picking up the phone, offering referrals, and helping us work through the early stages of liveaboard life. That kind of follow-through is rare.
If you are looking for a multihull and want someone who knows the boats and actually cares about the outcome, Chuck is the person to call.

We just purchased a 2025 Nautitech 44 Open with The Multihull Company. The process of getting here has been great, and we could not have asked for a better agent. We worked with Conor, whom we met at the 2025 Cannes Boat Show. We started our search for a cruising catamaran in Florida at the beginning of the year. We spent a couple of months looking at different boats/models within our price range and quickly narrowed it down to what really mattered to us, in part thanks to the wealth of knowledge and expertise our broker provided. When we found a perfect match in Montenegro, Conor and The Multihull Company did not hesitate to continue supporting us and to lead the efforts from start to finish with great care and transparency. Communication and support have been outstanding throughout this entire process. Conor, in particular, showed great compassion and care, going above and beyond to ensure that no stone was left unturned and that we would be able to safely and happily sail off into our big adventure.

A sale well handled. No inflated expectations and an honest opinion throughout. Highly recommended.

Absolutely THE ONLY company to use for buying or selling a catamaran! Our Broker Andrew Hodgdon, was excellent to work with, an experienced catamaran captain with extensive knowledge of sailing catamarans, the ins and outs of the construction, performance, systems, everything involved and life on board catamarans. All of which is invaluable in looking for the right boat for someone to buy or helping market your boat when selling. The Multihull Company is so connected in the catamaran world and used by so many catamaran sailors and searchers that we had an interested buyer before our boat was even listed and a completed sale 60 days after her first showing!!! Thanks Andrew and all of the Multihull team who worked diligently to make it happen so smoothly!

— Linda W.

We had a great experience working with Andrew! He was extremely knowledgeable and listened to our needs of what we wanted our next boat to be. He responded quickly to all of our requests and got us to the finish line. Working with Multihull was seamless and we highly recommend using Andrew and Multihull.
