Introducing "The Keys" - A Pinnacle of Nautical Excellence by Valder Yachts
Crafted by the renowned Scott Lane Boat Builders in New Zealand and proudly presented by Valder Yachts in conjunction, with Roger Hill, "The Keys" stands as a jewel in the world of luxury yachting. Valder Yachts, under the visionary ownership of Wayne Valder, brings an infusion of innovation and excellence. Wayne Valder, a legend with an extensive offshore powerboat racing history spanning 2 to 3 decades, is not only the owner but also the designer of this magnificent vessel. His expertise and passion for high-performance and design are embodied in every curve and line of "The Keys". This vessel is a testament to modern engineering, sculpted entirely from carbon fiber using the latest in 3-D computer-aided design and CNC machining.
Performance and Power
"The Keys" is a foil-assisted power catamaran, generating an impressive 20 tons of lift. This remarkable feature allows it to achieve lift from the foil at approximately 17.5 knots. At its heart are twin 1300 hp turbo diesel MAN engines, paired with a ZF665 V drive gearbox. This powerhouse enables a breathtaking 43-knot wide-open throttle speed and a cruising speed of 40 knots. With a fuel capacity of 2499 gallons, it boasts an 840-mile range, ensuring extensive voyages with ease and comfort.
Advanced Control and Navigation
Navigation is a breeze with the Advantix Marex 3-D joystick positioned at both the helm and a starboard stern wing station. As the speed increases, control seamlessly shifts to the Advantix shifter/throttle controllers and the rudder angle joystick. The yacht's stability is managed by the Humphree interceptor, a trim and stabilization system. For navigation and radar, "The Keys" is equipped with three Garmin 8416XSV multi-function displays and a Garmin 424 xHD2 open array radar, all stylishly integrated into a floating carbon fiber display above the helm station. This vessel is equipped with CZone, controlling majority of the boats functions.
Luxurious Amenities and Accommodations
Inside, "The Keys" is a haven of luxury and convenience. It accommodates eight guests comfortably across four state rooms, with a 450 square-foot top deck that can host a helicopter, a large tender, or multiple water toys, supported by a robust 2200 pound capacity davit. The tender garage is designed for vessels up to 11 feet in length and 6 feet in beam. The main salon spans 128 square feet and features a retractable 50-inch LED TV, cork flooring for comfort and practicality, and elegant American oak accents. Each space within this yacht exudes sophistication, from the diamond-stitched faux leather headliner to the Sea Recovery Aqua Matic 1800 water maker.
Gourmet Experience and Entertainment
For those who love to entertain, "The Keys" does not disappoint. The galley opens to the aft deck, extending the entertainment space. It features a full-size Fisher & Paykel refrigerator-freezer combo and all essential appliances, including a convection cooktop range and dishwasher. Adjacent to the galley is a 48 square-foot U-shaped bar with glass storage and a 20 bottle wine refrigerator, perfect for hosting and socializing.
Efficient and Innovative Systems
Environmentally conscious, "The Keys" is equipped with two Fisher Panda 15000i three-phase inverter combo marine generators, and a substantial lithium battery bank, providing 10 to 12 hours of operation on battery power alone. The electrical system is versatile, accommodating various power inputs.
"The Keys" is not just a yacht; it's a statement – a testament to luxury, power, and advanced marine technology. This vessel is an ideal choice for the discerning mariner seeking performance, elegance, and comfort. Contact us to experience "The Keys" – where every journey becomes a cherished memory.

Your team delivered on every mark. You’ve got an amazing broker in Mark Wattrus and I’m confident you will have continued success moving forward together. He was available 24/7 whenever I had questions. We had a great initial visit on the boat and his marketing plan and photos were superb
I bought a yacht that I had never seen. I did this because I trusted my broker Andrew Holland. It was not an easy job for Andrew, as I am an experienced boat builder and owner of previous yachts, but work in West Africa. Imagine how hard it was to communicate what I was looking for. Andrew came up with exactly what I wanted. He dealt with time delays, all my questions at odd hours, and was there for the survey. He reported honestly and professionally. After buying the yacht, I arrived at the boat on a Sunday night, after dark, after travelling from West Africa to the Caribbean, and found it was better than expected. He never pulled punches and made me aware of shortfalls. I expected to spend my one month leave working on the boat, but actually spent less than one week, and was able to spend 3 weeks sailing – wonderful bonus.
Thank you Andrew for putting up with all my questions, all my worries and all my crazy out of the time zone concerns – you were totally professional, but also I know that if and when we meet up, it will be like a friend finally meeting. You are always welcome on Aseka.
Outstanding company with professional subject matter experts. If I were to buy or sell cruising sailboat, particularly a catamaran, Andrew would be my go to broker.
I have been sailing since I was a child and attended Massachusetts Maritime Academy. But when my wife and I began the process of purchasing an ocean cruising/racing catamaran, I realized that this is a world unto itself. Obviously, we needed to find someone knowledgeable to help us make an informed decision. More importantly, we needed someone honest and willing to put our interests before his or her own. I was lucky to work with Phil Berman at The Multihull Company. He repeatedly shunned the fast buck, choosing instead to work the long road to connect us with the “perfect boat”. I would be glad to recommend Phil and his company to anyone planning to purchase or sell a performance sailing machine.
Andrew Hodgdon was our broker when we bought our 2018 Lagoon 450F in Antigua in April 2922. He provided great service and was very attentive to our needs. We would highly recommend Andrew and the Multihull Company.
Successful relationships cannot exist without it. At The Multihull Company we base every relationship on a firm commitment to earning and retaining our client’s trust.
Advice of any kind is valuable only when grounded in hard-won expertise. It too, must be trustworthy. Trust and expertise define the heart and soul of The Multihull Company. We are a team of skilled professionals who thrive on providing expert, trustworthy advice and service to catamaran and trimaran sailors around the globe.
