A small Power Catamaran Passage Maker

Passage Makers do come in small sizes as the Aspen Cat proves so. The Aspen is a 30 foot Cat powered by a single diesel Volvo 220HP. One hull is larger than the other and she is a full displacement hull, The biggest benefit of the Aspen design is fuel economy and a much larger space for a 30 footer.

   Here is a video of the Boat builder Larry Graf and his son Nick attempting to set a record for the circumnavigation of Vancouver Island in one non-stop shot. They made the record comfortably.




There are no Aspen Cats in Singapore yet. I can easily see the benefit of this boat for the type of cruising we do in Singapore to offshore destinations in Malaysia, Riau and Thailand.
