About
The Supercat 67 was built specifically for her builders, so moreattention was devoted to the
designing, planning and conceiving of this boat than most others. Dennis Shultz, a well known name in the boat building industry specifically designed Sea Chant to be an expedition cruiser. Lightly used, Sea Chant has sailed the South East Coast of Southern Africa salvaging species of coral that had been damaged by commercial fishing practices. Dennis has built over 1000 boats in his career with many being deep sea fishing vessels built for the harsh conditions of the South African coast.
Designed to sail at wind speed with very efficient slim displacement hulls and a Carbon rotating wing mast, this boat has the ability to do 300+ miles per day - easily.
The boat was manufactured on a moldless construction basis where all materials used were cnc machined.The Internal Structures were manufactured using Epoxy / Glass / Marine Ply / PVC FoamSandwich Construction.
The Hull was formed using composite Carbon / Glass / PVC Foam / Epoxy as follows:
Composite strip planks were used to form the underwater body and sides of the hull.
These were pre vacuum molded, in full lengths, incorporating glass carbon UD fiber (25% Carbon)
along the full length of the boat.
Thereafter perpendicular 45 degree UD layers were wrapped around the hull, developing a fiber
matrix, without overlaps.The price to custom build a 67ft catamaran to this standard today would be astronomical.
She was conceived as a family boat, but due to business obligations the owners have not been able to make proper use of her.
The boat features anenclosed upstairs helmstation, which is partially sunken into the main cabin roof, with a structure tying it to the bridgedeck, allowing for lighter overall construction, an aero dynamic ride and incredible 360 degree panoramic views whilst under sail.
Simplicity is the the idea behind this build, systems are uncomplicated yet unique. Uncluttered spaces focus on ergonomics and maintenance is just a fraction compared to other vessels in her size and category.
An interesting concept, Sea Chant motors at speeds up to 17 knots. If the rig is removed this vessel can effortlessly become an efficient motor catamaran for expeditions that require fixed bridges.
With a beam of only 27.9 feet the options for haul and service are plenty. The portable fold up trailer used to haul out Sea Chant at her current location can be shipped easily and is up for discussion with the sale.
The opportunities are endless with a custom built catamaran of this pedigree!Lets discuss your ideas.
Selling features:
It’s been a few weeks now and the dust has settled. We had a great experience with the Multihull Company and in particular our broker, Caroline Laviolette. Caroline was happy to share her knowledge of the market and the catamarans we were interested in purchasing. She was patient and thorough as we looked at several boats in SE Florida, helped us narrow our search and eventually purchase a beautiful 2017 Lagoon 42. Many thanks to the team at The Multihull Company!
We had a great experience purchasing our boat with Will Miller as a buyers agent. Purchasing our first large Cat is a daunting experience and Will was able to walk us through the process with ease. Will was very straight forward and constantly gave us honest feedback as well as finding and pointing out details on all the boats that we may not have noticed or thought about.
We had a great experience and would use them again.
I would specifically recommend a buyers agent when purchasing to help weed through a lot of problems and misrepresented boats on the market.
We have had great experiences with the Multihull company. We both sold our old boat through them, and bought our new boat through them. I have to say that Will Miller is top-notch, and Riley was great as our broker for selling our O day 39. when you buy a Salt or Boat through them, I feel like you are not only clients, but you are friends. The lines of communication were always open and we were always informed of everything going on.
Riley, and the entire staff at The Multihull Company, were incredibly helpful and responsive in helping me find and purchase my catamaran. I was a first time purchaser and had many questions about the process and Riley was very responsive in answering those questions. I would recommend The Multihull Company to anyone in the market to purchase or sell their boat.
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.
