Italian shipyard Wider and Pajot Custom Yachts have added a 44.1 metre model to their fledgling line of eco sailing catamarans.
The 145 Eco Yacht follows in the footsteps of the 35.1 metre Pajot 115 Eco yacht catamaran, which received an “enthusiastic response” from the market, according to the builder.
Set to be built in aluminium and carbon by project partner Wider, the 145 version will boast additional volume, deck space and performance in comparison to the Pajot 115 Eco Yacht.
More customisation options will also be available, with options on the helm and galley positions, as well as various interior configurations.
The catamarans, which will be built at Wider’s Ancona shipyard, will feature technical configurations of hybrid power options.
Speaking about the new model, Marc Pajot said: “The synergy with what I have been developing with our Eco catamaran and the superyachts produced by Wider is exceptional.
“Adding leading edge hybrid power-train technology developed by Wider and their specialist technical partners and suppliers has created a unique yachting opportunity and experience.”
Wider chief executive Marcello Maggi added: “I am personally very excited about our partnership with Marc Pajot and his exceptionally talented team. Together we will build some spectacular Eco hybrid catamarans, setting a new benchmark on the oceans.”
