- With Voyager successfully launched we've begun her sea trials, the first day of which was performance testing. Here's a cool video of her running at speed albeit in fairly calm conditions with some great drone footage.
Another stunning vessel from Safehaven Marine. Beautiful!!!
What a beast!!!
Spectacular hull design and outstanding performance - the stuff that dreams are made of ...
Frank, you are a true genius, creating boats like this amazing vessel, above anything ever before!
Of course, I absolutely love your Thunderchild boats too!
Finally proper audio!! Lovely boat
Well Well done brother, this is truly special for the blue water family
Superb vessel, Superb music ❤. Can't wait to see further videos on this one.
what a vessel.....great work to the designers and builders.....
Absolutely stunning work you've done to further the craft of vessel design in the last decade. I can't even imagine what you have in store to top this, but I'm sure it's in the works!
Sweet looking boat there! Stay safe and keep rolling them out! 👍👍
Amazing Frank - well done. Are you concerned about the spray that comes up from the centre console ? Seems that you might have wipers on a whole lot of the time - or will the foils stop it?
You’ve outdone yourself Frank. She is very special
Greetings, welcome again, senior, the prototype of the ship has been tested for feasibility, very good, senior
I thought my cat sneezed a lot! Cool boat!
What an Amazing Piece of engineering....Although I must say that the Open Covers of the bathing decks do look erm somewhat precipitous above those extremely powerful Surface Drives....Especially when you see how sharp their edges are out of the water........!!!!! Although I assume that they might have been open for effect on the video while filming at sea....!!!!! def especially good if you're a bond villain but even if you're not the fairly thin stainless steel gate does kind of add to the somewhat precipitous effect of it all especially going along at full chat in such a descent swell.....!!!!!! :) :) :) :) :)
Not bad. I dont like the constant spray from between the hulls.
Why not? Is not big deal.
Hot Day.. Sun is shining then and refreshing spray on face and body. Also.
Depends on the wawes.
No wawes no spray.
Lol, you probably should not be standing on the sugar scoops when traveling 40+ km/h in large enough swells that cause a 21.5 meter boat to jump waves.
That's the surface drives
I agree if a deck-level plate could knock down the bow spray before the pilot house. The only issue I'd care about would be slowing this vessel down or the deck extension would assist a wave in burying the bow.
@@stevedupre8779 N miles. No Km.
awesome. looks like a fantastic platform. the sneeze, however, seems excessive when considering the relatively calm conditions. I wonder if there's a small design tweak that could mitigate that. Maybe carry the deck a little further forward between the sponsons? Or some sort of "sneeze deflector" under the deck span?
I don't know whether this cat is designed to trap air between the hulls to provide lift, but that seems to be what's going on here. Without increasing the airflow under the deck it will tend to blow spray out in front. It's a tricky compromise, the hulls are wave piercing, which will throw up spray when I'm the water, but she's clearly fully on the plane. The big fast cats from mti and skater barely touch the water when on full chat, consequently there is huge airflow under the deck. Very different boats though. The sneeze is probably the price you have to pay for wave piercing capability when the going gets really tough. Lovely boat Frank 😊
We just have to modify the inner hulls chines a bit 😁
Came to the comments to read about the spray, and learned it's called the sneeze. Very appropriate!
@@elmamo2000 Or that those little ridges are called chines. :)
@@1973keithit’s got a hydrofoil underneath the pilothouse
Great footage Frank!
very cool, will be great when the constant spray from between the hulls is sorted out
Mr Frank that is insane . Nicely done
Wow! That is a serious offshore powercat!
Just how 'offshore' do you think it will be with engines that size absolutely chugging through the fuel?
@@alfredneuman6488 Do a little more research and you will find there are other engine options which would enable ocean crossing range.
@@duncanjames914 Right sure....
Why spend all that money on building a speed boat only to underpower it so it can go the distance?
It is either one or the other, not both.
And what it is, is really thirsty.
@@alfredneuman6488 I think you're missing the point. This is a test platform with maximum power to assess the boat's handling characteristics. The designer/builder will likely offer other power options to extend the range. If you're worried about full economy consider a sailboat.
@@duncanjames914 The "handling characteristics" are relevant to the engines, taking into account the weight of each of them, tankage etc.
These characteristics vary when engines are changed out.
Stop trying to guess what the designer was thinking and accept reality.
I like power cats and have built a number of them to meet market requirements.
Lovely boat great work. quite impressive how u made a highspeed catamaran very resistant to Ditching nose down in big waves.
Fantastic. Besides thunderchiled another beauty
I haven't been on a boat in 20 years and I live in the midwest, but I love RUN LIKE HELL! Awesome boat seriously though. Cheers!
Good to see the new Boat Frank :) i will order a couple when i win the lottery :) Always good to see your new boats, Take care :)
It would be fun to see one of your boats come out of Haulover Inlet on a really rough day.
agile and nimble on the rough seas, as the name suggests, can rule the rough seas and chose a name that suits the adventurous character. I like the voyagers ship
Beautiful, cool, and she looks seaworthy for sure. I would say she sneezes a lot which might/could be problematic.
Wow, it looks something out of James Bond!
That is one hot cat, Frank! Amazing Job!
Any chance of some technical videos. Engine choices, set up, build process , prop choices , drive train, etc ? You did some for Thunderchild that i enjoyed as much aa the sea trial content .
She's a beauty, Frank. Love it❤
Well done Frank and the Team yet another world class boat coming out the workshop. just looking forward to the long distance runs at least theres plenty of space on the floor this time to have a snooze. Oh and beds thats if you can manage to stop in one running flatout in a force 8+gale and massive sea state. Need a hand on the helm i know a mad Yorksireman who would to love help you out.
Holy shit. Now we’re talking.
What a spectacular craft!!!!
Fantastic boat! Amazing!
Wow, what a beauty 😊
Wow, Amazing very nice 🎉So Bountiful 🌹🌹
Just BRILLIANT !!!
Sensacional! Abraços de Aracaju - Brasil!
Idk how possible this would be, but is there any way you guys could post unedited/mostly unedited videos of when you take the boats out in big storms? Just like views from a few mounted gopros or smth. I think that would be really cool to watch.
That is REALLLLLLY damn pretty!
I wouldn’t mind gunning it to the ‘run like hell’ soundtrack!
Spectacular!
Oh, she is beautiful. What a boat. Stunning all round.
Freakin awesome craft.
Congratulations ...
Well thats is the most beautiful boat I have ever seen. Can we see more interior video?
Thanks to Mr Kowalski, I once again must change my knickers.
This boat is absolutely insane! Love it! I am an absolute fanatic when it comes to catamarans, foils and surface drives!! Keep the kids off the swim decks when that thing is running! I understand the need for them to be open to allow air in behind the surface props and that has got to be the coolest thing to watch! Show us some video at night with the underwater lights lighting up those props and water as speed! I bet it is spectacular! Can I ask what size props and what pitch? Are you running the ASD 12's? Foils? What's your cruise speed and top speeds? Thanks for sharing!!
Freaking AWESOME design
I love catamaran, but that one’s got a cold
Phenomenal
And that’s why you have a foredeck between the hulls
This is my idea
of a luxury speed boat.
Next level
Superb
Wow !👍
Wow !
Great looking Super Boat ,
Spray can be eliminated by extending fordeck by one meter.
As a matter of fact this is the first MY catamaran concept that appeals to me. However as a former Flying boat aircraft owner of many years, water spray is a concern to me at any speed. It causes erosion plus is a sign of parasitic drag and as a result more Energie is required leading to higher fuel consumption. I’m sure the naval architect or the team behind designing this yacht is well aware of this and they will research all possibilities to address the issue within the limitations that reality throws at us. That’s why most of times we are forced to live with compromises! Fact is 90% of cruising is done at most economical cruise speed anyhow, where spray is likely no problem at all.😉
I have an idea how to increase the bow deck area whilst stopping the "sneezing" from the catamaran hulls. Let me know if you want to hear it. Incredible machine you have there by the way. Congrats!
my sort of boat!
Ooooft! Snice….. 👊👍🏻
Yes please.......
Beautiful
That looks amazing! Is it self-righting? Or is that simply not possible for a catamaran?
My guess is NO WAY IN ####. :SHRUGS:
There was some fancy 'survival' mono hull
boat with tons of incredibly technical gear,
I asked if it was self-righting, they didn't
even respond, for that type of boat I would
think it a priority.
I wouldn't expect them to even try to make
a cat self righting, I guess it would be
possible, but they would really have to
be thinking and designing out of the box,
on another level.
I can’t see how you bend the laws of physics to self right a catamaran. It is flat on the bottom and flat on top. To be self righting you need a fairly round boat.
The Tony Stark of boat builders! 😁👍
Best boats in the world! Love them! God bless!
When did a dry ride go out of style? I think I missed it.
Rides well, looks beautiful on the move. Does the cat tunnel act as an anti slamming cushion?
Kowalski se reinventa mais uma vez na execução de um grande projeto naval. Parabéns a esse grande homem que tanto contribue para o desenvolvimento de novas tecnologias na navegação offshore .
What about the splash i see coming up the middle?
That could get annoying.
Any thoughts?
yeah, sucks big time
What an awesome machine I can’t believe someone found a negative about the sneeze try any of that in a 60 foot monohull
Боже какая прелесть, как стану миллиардером обязательно себе прикуплю.
Awesome boat! Like other comments, I'm wondering about the frequent spray finding its way over the bridge deck from the bow - it seems like it's mostly coming from the "mini-spray-strakes" on the base of the inverted portion of the bow... what do those strakes do?
Way too much "sneezing", aka spray blowing back from between the hulls.
It's the roostertail from the arnesson surfacedrives.
@@biotribe123 Drives have nothing to do with bow sneeze.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I can't help but think the hulls look like the Wharram sailing cat design, even where the cabin starts it looks exactly like the Wharram design. Obviously it's had a bit added to the bows to accommodate the extra weight etc from the sailing Wharram design, so is it from the the design table of Wharram?
👏👏👏🤘😘
Awesome boat / yatch. Quick question? Do both engine turn the same way or is one counterotation? Thanks!
Отлично! И Pink Floyd как подходит!
Perfect boat for me. 🙂
Get her to halouver inlet on a big swell and huuuge outgoing tide!
Das als RC Modell Boot das wäre es , das ganze in 1:15 und 2 x BL 3674 oder 4074 mit ca 1400Kv und je Motor 2x 4-6s 5000mah Lipo dann damit bei anständig wind auf der ostsee fahren oder anderen größeren Seen z.B. Müritz oder auf der Elbe ...
Das wäre dann ein schönes und sportlich zufahrendes Modellboot bezahlbar für alle die sich das original nicht so ganz leisten können .
Ich finde das Boot absolut Klasse eine Stabile 9 von 10 einfach nur GEIL
EXCEPTIONAL
♧♧♧BRAVO
awesome, how much Kt at full speed??
Wow! 70' of boat, 50' out the water jumping off a 12' wave!!!! 😮
Where the HELL did you see that?
Very nice but not sure about the constant spray from between the bow!?
Cool to see Duke Nukem has a nice boat, but can it handle Haulover Inlet?
روعه amazing
Amazing very nice 🎉
Enterprise 😮
Very nice indeed would like to own
Interesting 🤔 Looks like it rides well and does not seem to dive a lot, how does she go with tunnel slam ? does not appear as though it would be an issue even in heavier seas ?
The twin children of Thunderchild II?
Would have been nice to see below deck.
👏👏👏🤙
very cool. like two swords dividing the sea 🗡🙏😊
Beast , will the spray coming up in the centre between hulls be reduced when Hydrofoil fitted
How about some canvas with netting under it between the hulls to stop the ocean spray going all over the boat. Remove the canvas and sit on the netting when stopped.
My boat when can I pick it up? ❤❤❤❤
What’s the cruising range on your boats? Would they be reasonable to take from Australia to SE Asia?
