Warwick Yacht Design launches the W43m Powercat

The W43m Power catamaran is the latest design from Auckland-based studio, with a compact entertainment centre and multipurpose 95sqm helicopter deck uninhibited by navigation towers and roof structures and ideally suited to a EC 120b Eurocopter. Once the chopper is safely on deck the roof rises up to allow access to the other lower decks via stairs or lift.

The upper deck provides space for four guest suites, with glazing opening onto balconies and a large passageway to central stairs forward down to main deck. The upper aft deck caters for a kiosk-type bar with Jacuzzi and sunbeds, the water from the  Jacuzzi  forms a waterfall down to the main deck pool with stairs both sides down to the main deck pool area.

The main deck  features lounging to port with rotating seating to optimise view, a generous central passageway/gallery and dining to starboard, moving aft through curved sliding glazing to twin bars and infinity type pool, twin stairs down to the stern platforms with transformer bathing platforms each side.

The owner’s stateroom forward on the main deck occupies a generous 126 sqm incorporating an atrium area with sliding roof and forward viewing.
