Vaan R4 Aluminium Electric Catamaran Tour. #eco #yachts
Join us on a tour of the Vaan R4 at the Cannes Yachting Festival. This is an electric aluminium catamaran build in the Netherlands with some interesting design details.
.
The R4 is the smallest of the Vaan range at 42 foot (12.8 m). Her hulls are 60% made from recycled aluminium and where possible Vaan have used circular materials, for example the cork decks.
.
It´s all part of their "Sail the Planet" philosophy: sustainable, yet luxurious sailing.

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.
Is the cat nose heavy ? Looks such.
The bows seem to be wave piercing. There are many different ways to design boat hulls.
Pretty amazing.
If I tried really hard I might just be able to make it more ugly.
It's beautiful....
🙏
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 😊
I'm guessing you are not a fan 😅, all good stuff but there are pros and cons to all of those points of course. The helm position debate is always a passionate one, I find it interesting how it doesn't fire up so much in the monohull market with deck saloons vs the sportier helm positions. As you say, most of the time you are tucked inside on autpilot if the weather is filthy, you might need to wear a jacket every now and then coming into the marina. You are probably best off "tacking" downwind in a cat for the best VMG in my opinion, or invest in a parasailor. You make a good point about redunancy, I'd think about a back up generator if I was doing long passages. A portable one stowed away for instance.
Nice to look at, clean lines; looks like a lot of love and attention to detail in this cat. Is shaft drive an option?
I don't believe so, powered by 2x SD15 Oceanvolt saildrives
👍👍
🙏
Nice cinematography but captions ran so fast , maybe a bit slower. Nice Cat though
@@vicariouswitness ok, thanks for the feedback, hard to get the best balance between info and speed, but you are probably right
That is a nice looking electric catamaran.
@@VonBluesman 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Centre of buoyancy to far forward, different layout options ?
Huge❤😊😊
@@dasimmyr9840 🙏🏼🤩
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
@@_PatSails interesting thoughts, what brand(s) of electric motor would you go for?
@@katamaranscomI think combi are the best. good history of production. simple and from all accounts I've had with owners very reliable simple (in a good way) construction and controls
Thank god for this coming out!
I don't see much solar for a all electric cat.
@@douglasmontgomery6315 you can option up to 2050W of peak solar
@@katamaranscom , Do you have a diagram of it distributed on the vessel. I just don't see the room. Thanks
Eh ... The video states "The Owner's Hull is starboard" and "The Guest Hull to Port...", but the video seems to show the opposite.
@@TerjeDahlT yes, that is a mistake. I think I must have put my green shoe on my left foot and my red shoe on my right foot that day
@@katamaranscom We put red and green bands in my daughter's pigtails. ;-)
@@TerjeDahlT 😅👏
Sailing "bow heavy" from the video,anyway..
What is the advantage of going aluminum over a composite hull?
@@grantwes lifespan, more resistant to impact, recyclable, solar and fire resistant.
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.
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.
It's a whole boat length too short!
The bow at low speed seems ready to sink, what will happen at high speed with formed waves?"
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?
The bows seem to be wave piercing. There are many different ways to design boat hulls. Agree it seems to throw some spray from the vertical bows. The actual bow and stern wakes look ok. The spray needs to go somewhere. Throwing it outwards is different from up and back, and arguably maybe better?
The berths need to be built deep into the central bulkhead, seawind style, to minimize hull width. Otherwise great aluminium cat.
you mean they could be built like that . its a big storage issue with those designs if you're a live aboard though. all about how far you want to move the scale towards purist performance than comfort?
@@_PatSails Agree, different designs balance the performance vs practicality in different ways. And that's a good thing since it gives us more choices. There is no single perfect answer for everyone.
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?
Quoted light displacement is 10.9 tonnnes (specs at 6:30 and 6:55). The beam is 7.08m on a length of 12.8m (55%).
This would be a good platform for the charter poole. Great presentation.
The owner`s hull is portside)
Yes, you are correct, there is a mistake on that caption in the video, thank you
My dream
But you
"Goes beyond the potential of fossil fuels", really! We have gone 276 knots per hour with fossil fuels. BS
put a nuclear power plant in it and call it a atomic boat with infinite* range for 21st century.
They might need to rething the weight distribution
Answer to the question? MORE FOILS, BIGGER KITES M'BOY!
Foils are too unstable at the target speeds. Bigger kites...yes! They are steadily building up to the 55 sq. m.
It kinda looks like a boat version of the Blackbird
yes, lots of people are saying that
Why don't they use the fins that take the main body out of the water like the professional twin Hull's do. It's just advertising.
Foils are unstable at over 60 knots (cavitation), so their strategy is steadily power up on a stable platform. They do have a foil, but it is used to stop them flying off the water at speed
Go for it😊😊❤
@@dasimmyr9840 👍🙏🏼🙏🏼
You need to get that boat’s hull out the water and you do that using hydrofoils.
foils are too unstable over 60 knots (cavitation). The limiting factor is more down to how much power you can safely transfer to the craft without it taking off/catapulting. If you look at the kite surfing speed records, they are all planing
@@katamaranscomDidn’t stop Sailrocket II from doing more than 65 knots.
Why not use underwater foils/wings to lift the hole body out of the water?
At around 56-60 knots, foils become unstable due to water bubbles forming across their surfaces (cavitation). Foils are very good at delivering high speeds in lower wind conditions, but once you get to these kind of speeds, you hit a wall. If you look at the power records, it is all about planing and safely transferring lots of power to the craft without it taking off, so that is the route they are taking. They do have a foil (like a dagger board), but it is designed to keep them down rather than lift them up
Millions spend for what 😮😂😂😂
Spin-off tech. Advertising for the sponsors. Training mechanical and hydro engineers with their university partnership.
The Boat design is just breathtaking. This is just amazing, just when you think we have reached our limits on water speed generated by wind only .... u guys just go and do this.... I am here for it and waiting to see that record go down!!! Go Team!!
🙏🙏🤩
I believe the kite will be the limitin factor, too much drag using ripstop nylon
@@huck4321 kite stability, line design has to be one of the key technical challenges
Ok sweet...best wishes for your team
🙏🏼
Global warming, CO2 and the energy transition is a big scam.
Hrydofoils
There are stability problems with foils over 55-60 knots
Lower hull would give more ground effect?
Why would you want ground effect?
@@thethirdman225 It provides lift, more boat out of water->less drag->faster
@@kgill99 Oh, you mean _that_ kind of ground effect. I thought you were talking about it in racing car terms. You meant in Ekranoplan terms. Makes some sense but the boat has to be in the water or it gets disqualified.
It looks like the outriggers are planing on the aerated wake generated by the bow wave. 🤯
What was the tow boat?
@@7mtex300 that was the tow boat in that clip. They are now 40+ knots under sail, next target 50 and then a record attempt in 2025
@@7mtex300 just reread your question, I will ask
@@katamaranscom The first boat I see is black being pulled by a sail and it's hauling ass. Then I see a white boat being pulled with a fairly level line (to the water). What's pulling the white boat - a "sail", a power boat, or the blackboat that's under Sail?
What a joke, next they will tell you it is a replacement for transatlantic travel
Why can't they just open source "the zero point energy".
@@SafaidTV Heisenberg would agree
