Alăturați-vă nouă într-un tur al lui Vaan R4 la Festivalul de Yachting de la Cannes. Acesta este un catamaran electric din aluminiu construit în Țările de Jos, cu câteva detalii de design interesante. . R4 este cel mai mic din lanțul Vaan la 42 de picioare (12,8 m). Corpurile ei sunt realizate în proporție de 60% din aluminiu reciclat și, acolo unde a fost posibil, Vaan a folosit materiale circulare, de exemplu punțile de plută. . Totul face parte din filozofia lor „Sail the Planet”: navigație durabilă, dar luxoasă.

The owner`s hull is portside)
For a nearly 13 m cat she looks so big and bulky, not like a long lean catamaran should, it looks like the designers focused more on maximizing living space rather than sailing ability. What is the tonnage?
The berths need to be built deep into the central bulkhead, seawind style, to minimize hull width. Otherwise great aluminium cat.
Very interesting boat. As a cruising cat sailor, it looks like there is something not quite right with that disturbed water at the bows – way too much?
Theres much to commend it in terms of aims ..and the styling is quite Dutch minimalist. I see as others the bow disturbance and the higher
Stern waterline … There is also not much clearance under the tunnel.
The biggest switch off however is the extreemly aft outboard helms and the final killer the open transom and scoops. Theres little or no chance of selling this to to familly cruisers… and many Cat owners know what its like to sail with massive waves pushing from the aft quarters and having to deploy drogues or ropes to stop the boat surfing down slope stuffing into the trough and then getting swamped or hitting your stern. You dare not open the saloon door in those conditions even with the drains.
Nice interiors 👍👍 at first glance I see open decks and gangways and I wonder if there are enough places where you can hold onto something. Secondly she seems to pitch quite strongly. A mast of 20 meters on a boat of 13 meters ?? Third I see both the jibsheet and the mainsheet connect to the coach roof while the mast steps to the deck.
What is the advantage of going aluminum over a composite hull?
Eh … The video states "The Owner's Hull is starboard" and "The Guest Hull to Port…", but the video seems to show the opposite.
I don't see much solar for a all electric cat.
Thank god for this coming out!
love it. lose the dutch minimalist designs. bet the welding is top notch too ….just wonder how pricey it would be and if they have any innovative options for big solar and quiet wind regen …cause an all electric boat youre going to want it and would love to see the clever dutch interpretation of this ! BUT don't like the choice of motors …would much prefer something more basic that isnt such a complicated design ….oceanvolt have too much gearbox and prop 'innovation' that get in the way imo
Centre of buoyancy to far forward, different layout options ?
That is a nice looking electric catamaran.
Nice cinematography but captions ran so fast , maybe a bit slower. Nice Cat though
👍👍
Nice to look at, clean lines; looks like a lot of love and attention to detail in this cat. Is shaft drive an option?
Its a cat, what you want is a single helm with all lines led to that station, 99.9% of the time you are on auto pilot, you want a helm position that offers shelter, not sun wind and rain, self tacking jib sucks, overlapping genoa is much easier to barber haul downwind using the lazy sheet and doesnt break things if you are furling and the sail flogs, the cleats are tiny. Electric cats are in reality diesel cats with one BIG motor instead of 2 reliable diesels offering redundancy. I like the aluminium though 😊
If I tried really hard I might just be able to make it more ugly.
Pretty amazing.
Is the cat nose heavy ? Looks such.
Thanks for the tour. Aluminum is VASTLY more eco-friendly than plastic composites. And it's also more durable and safer, especially in collisions.
Displacement 10.9 tons is somewhat light for this size of boat.
Why is there no roof over the cockpit? Everything is white like in a hospital…
Great boat! And how much is it cost?
I see a lot of sharp corners up on the deck and inside, someone's toes are not going to have a good experience 😅
Starboard on the left?
Se clava mucho la proa o está bien 🤔
Lithium batteries on bord is not good…and very… dangerous
Definitely not enough solar on a boat that is all electric!
It’s one of the biggest yots that I have not seen before
Interesting cat but three things 1. Exposed helms – wet and not good for anyone concerned about skin cancer. As an Australian I would avoid yachts like this and the Excess.
2. She tracks strangely at the bow, it looks too deep in the water. This makes me wonder how she go in heavy weather, would she plow through the waves or hobby horse? Would the helmsman get drenched more?
3. As mentioned by others, it looks underweight in solar.
I love that there are more fully electric boats becoming available and I hope you will take my comments and those of others as constructive criticism.
As a business owner who designs their own products, I openly tell my testers “I want to know what you like, but I’m REALLY interested in what you don’t like” because that’s what stops them from buying a product, repeat sales or recommending it to their friends.
Listen to what people don’t like and change it rapidly. This will be difficult if it’s something like hull design but worth it. Quick responsiveness will result in more sales and the difference between business survival and failure.
The exterior looks amazing. However, I don't like the interior – it looks tooooo minimalistic and cheap, even below IKEA style..
I was surprised there wasn't a hardtop going all the way back covered with bifacial solar panels.
My boat is even better than electric, it’s wind powered
