About
Capricornus--a truly extraordinary 49-meter multihull that does more than sail the seas; she redefines them. As her name suggests, Capricornus, representing the mythical zodiac sea creature symbolizing strength, resilience, and adventure.
Launched in late 2023, Capricornus concept was created by the renowned I Yacht design of Hamburg and is not only a pinnacle of modern shipbuilding but a vessel designed to explore the world in ultimate comfort while sparing nothing in performance and versatility. She also makes a bold statement in the global shift towards multihull superyachts, setting herself apart in an ever-evolving industry.
At 48.88 meters in length with an eye-watering 14.75-meter beam, she is a yacht of phenomenal proportions.
As a Tri-deck multihull, it's no surprise that she boasts 900 gross tonnes and a total exterior teak-laid deck space of 600 square meters. Yet, with a fully loaded draft of just 2.51 meters, she epitomizes the benefits of multihull cruising--offering extraordinary stability and efficiency while maintaining the ability to access shallow bays and remote anchorages, that other yachts of this volume can only dream.
She is constructed with a steel hull and an aluminum superstructure, ensuring robust ocean-going performance while maintaining elegant, modern, and sharp lines. Her sheer volume and striking profile will undoubtedly turn heads when entering a crowded bay--but, in reality, she will more likely to be found in locations like this: secluded, untouched, and discreet.
Capricornus has been built to and maintained in Bureau Veritas (BV) class, a challenging feat in any case. But perhaps more impressively, she is classed as a BV Passenger Vessel for 36 passengers overnight.
Sure, some of her aesthetics may not align with the typical "white boat" standard, but every inch of this vessel has been class- and type-approved to meet the most stringent regulations--even down to the fabrics onboard.
Should her next owner choose, she could be "downgraded" to commercial yacht status, but her current level of classification opens the door to unimaginable scope and abundant commercial opportunity.
In fact, Capricornus was originally envisioned as a superyacht-level vessel tailored for the boutique cruise ship market--and the result is nothing short of incredible.
Capricornus features an incredible 15 ensuited guest staterooms, spread across her main and upper deck.
Four of these suites even have their own private balconies, something that is undoubtedly appealing to charters and owners guests alike. Her incredible accommodation makes her capable of welcoming up to 36 guests overnight in absolute privacy and comfort.
She has the capacity to house 40 professional crew members, where some may find that excessive, she can safely operate with as few as 10--providing flexibility to bring onboard local guides, dive masters, masseuses, and other specialized support staff depending on the expedition.
Whether operating as a passenger vessel or a private adventure yacht, her setup can be tailored to suit an owner's specific needs.
Arriving onboard, guests step onto two expansive swim platforms, each fitted with dedicated garages housing brand-new Seadoo 325 RXT.
These platforms are connected by a 3,000kg hydraulic lift platform, used for tender and toy Launch and retrieval, but when at anchor, it transforms into a sprawling beach club deck.
The Main Deck Aft serves as the activity center, with a strong emphasis on diving operations. Here, guests have access to a fully equipped dive store and an 8 seater dining table.
Slightly forward you enter the main deck saloon via double stacker sliding doors, a large family style buffet survey to starboard and C lounge seating to port with an expansive a luxury 12-seater dining table stretching through the center, conveniently supported by a bar and easy access storage room.
Ten of the total 15 staterooms are located forward of the main saloon, accessed via two doors on either side of the bar. These are connected by an impressive centerline hallway and consist of four doubles with their own private balconies, two convertible twin cabins, and three triple cabins, which work perfectly for children or family groups.
Additionally, this deck also hosts 2 independent day heads, a commercial laundry with 6 washers and dryers to forward, A spiral staircase to aft that leads to the upper deck access to the hulls where the commercial Galley, dry storage and crew accommodation are located.
The Upper Deck is home to the remaining five staterooms. A sprawling owner's apartment featuring large picture windows for an abundance of natural light, and a large ensuite with bathtub, but the most impressive feature is the private owners cinema room with state-of-the-art dolby digital sound system, comfortable lounges and a 85 inch flat screen smart tv.

2 extra day heads and an abundance of separate storage is conveniently situated throughout. This entire deck seamlessly connects via a center line hallway which leads through to the pilot house fwd.

In her current configuration, she holds 28,000 litres of diesel, whilst there is scope for this to be increased, It could be argued that this isn't necessary.

Dialing her back to and economical cruise of 8 knots will see an impressive 3000 miles pass under her keel.

Zvonimir heard that my vessel was back on the market and reached out to see what was going on. Nothing wrong with the boat! He put me in touch with Charles and we got her sold. Thanks for all the support and making it happen TMC!
Chuck was amazing throughout the entire process. Not sure how we could have navigated this without him and the Multihull team!

THEY ARE THE CATAMARAN MARKET LEADERS!! Captain Will Miller has taken the company to the top level. They had an interested buyer prior to my listing going live. I was under contract the first week. The Multihull Company is an impressive organization.
