Visayan 36' Catamaran (V11)

Designer: Mike Allen

The Visayan 11 carries enough hull length and interior accomodation to be seriously considered as a true live-aboard cruising catamaran for those on a budget or just not wanting the cost and effort required to manage a bigger boat. A fully battened mainsail on a shop-built rotating wingmast will provide excellent sailing performance with a modestly sized and economical sailplan. The spinnaker and screecher sails shown may be considered optional, but are recommended as they significantly enhance sailing performance in typical tropical light-air conditions.

A fabric bimini shelter (not shown on the drawings but as seen here) over the helm station and deck seating will keep the helmsman and crew in the shade while underway, and a larger boom awning can cover almost all the aft deck at anchor. All the standard Visayan features are in place on the Visayan 11 for comfortable tropical cruising. Minimally outfitted or fully loaded, the Visayan 11 will take you cruising wherever you wish to go.
