raymarine and simrad/b&g. single nmea network with converter, likely a garmin as well and pc nmea interface from my current boat.

zeus 3, evo 3 and likely an axiom+. the raymarine is an unfortunate leftover because the dude bought $25K worth of raymarine kit which I cant change including hydraulic autopilot, 12" plotter display, VHF with remote station, instruments and AIS. I'll throw on the forwardscan, tablet, LLTV from my current boat and slap in a zeus 3 and evo 3 with halo 24. i have a converter on the current boat so i'll move that over as well. i'll drop in an HS75 DGPS as well.

If only they had that kind of budget and nerdness.

YouTube the build. I followed Parlay Revival for a while but seems to have lost interest after the relaunch. Planning to mount some downriggers on her? Be fun to sail out for Tuna on that bad boy!

You love your tech!

i do have a youtube but it takes too much effort to put it up there. i'll post a few vids once its done and im crossing oceans with it.
ideally i would like some automatic fishing rods on it. push a button and it reels in the fish sorta deal.
anyone tried this thing ? https://fish.shimano.com/content/fi...age/Shimano_Product_Page.P-BEASTMASTER_A.html
ideal setup would be for me to put the fishing rod off the back of the boat and then when it detects a fish it reels it in. i know - lazy fishing method lol but i couldnt be bothered to do it manually. even better if there is one which interfaces to chartplotters.

What's the weight on the ballast? Great build by the way!

He was cat fishing us with that little tin boat stuffed full of electronics!

Both of them love their electronics. For me replacing a breaker on the windlass is a big job, I yearn for the days of a pull start tiller boat! Looking like a sick build

Sounds like my wife, lol. She hates it when her fish make a big run.

Sweet, who’s doing the build? I'm curious about the ballast weight too.

its originally done at a shipyard Projektowanie i Budowa Jachtów in Szczecin, Poland. Getting transferred to UK for completion since i dont speak polish and its a pain to communicate with them. plus minor war going on next door - dont want a cruise missile up my new yacht's backside. i might transfer it to Tunisia instead of UK since they seem to speak english there (the manager is a brit) to HACO in Al Huwariyah if its cheaper. otherwise it will go straight to the UK. anyway, will decide once i fly down to Tunisia and talk to them end of this month.
5 tons dry weight. A catamaran generally has no ballast. It primarily depends on beam and individual hull buoyancy for stability. max design speed is 17 knots under sail so a bit slower than my 40 knot powerboat.
