Best Suited For

Tags are derived from certified class, length, sail area, accommodation and tankage using the criteria described on the Sources page; an editor may add or remove one.

Speed, Power & Tanks

What the builder publishes about how fast, how strong and how much the boat carries.

Power to weight

Total engine power per tonne of published displacement — more means livelier acceleration for the hull. Drawn for motor yachts.

not published: displacement

Tanks

Fuel and water on one scale: a tank twice the height holds twice as much.

Design limits set by the EU Recreational Craft Directive (2013/53/EU), in significant wave height. A category covers the conditions of those below it. It is the limit the boat was designed to, not a promise that it is safe in any conditions within it — that judgement stays with the skipper.

About YOT

Volume production

Catana Group's power-catamaran marque, launched in 2023 — the outboard YOT 36 and YOT 41 with twin Mercury V8 to V12 (300–600 hp each), fold-out side platforms and two hull cabins, and the inboard YOT 53 due at the end of 2026, all drawn by JnJ Design.

YOT is the power catamaran marque of Catana Group, which has been designing and building catamarans for close to forty years. The group's second act began in 2003, when Olivier Poncin, sensing the demand for catamarans, bought the Catana name; a few years on he judged the bluewater catamaran market too narrow on its own and decided to take on the much larger sail multihull market by innovating rather than imitating -- which produced Bali. The Catana-Bali yards now build more than 300 boats a year. A group given over almost entirely to sail owed itself a motor boat, and YOT is it: twin-hulled power catamarans meant equally for the beginner and the experienced, for a day out, a weekend, a fast run or a party, in a pair or a crowd. Catana Group employs more than 1,300 people across four boatbuilding sites -- Canet-en-Roussillon, the company's original home, Marans near La Rochelle, El Haouaria in Tunisia and one in Portugal -- with its own industrial joinery at Rivesaltes and a service base at Port Pin Rolland in the roadstead of Toulon.
