Mares line of Catamarans - 68 Center Console

The all new edition to the Mares line of Catamarans the 68 Center Console.  We designed the 68 to be fast, shallow draft, long range with reliable power.  There are three staterooms each with en suite head and shower and a nice size well appointed Galley and Salon.  There are lots of amenities including a cockpit you can actually fish from, outside cooking area  and forward seating.  Still using the Mares asymmetrical hull with foil assist in the tunnel we expect to see 46 knots top speed. To get the desired speed we are using 1600 HP MTU’S with jet drives by Hamilton Jet.  In todays market outboards have become very popular and are getting bigger all the time. This alternative offers reliability only two diesel engines to maintain and trips to the Bahamas for instance longer range and access fuel you can use.  The Mares Catamarans are semi-custom built to suit each customers needs so there are many options available.  The 68 Can be built as a an open Fly Bridge or Enclosed flybridge. Power options include Volvo IPS diesel engines.
