With its new flagship, Aventura Catamarans presents a completely new development by designer Samer Lasta. The boat surprises above all with an unusually wide range of interior design options

The brand is based in France. However, Aventura catamarans are built in Tunisia. The up-and-coming shipyard recently put a completely new production facility into operation. The shipyard is currently represented on the market with the Aventura 37, as well as two motorised catamarans. The programme is now being supplemented with the new Aventura 45. The design features voluminous hull shapes that taper significantly towards the waterline with striking chine edges and strikingly large windows in the freeboard and deckhouse. The rig is positioned comparatively far back on the cabin superstructure. The overlapping genoa with hollow points on the coachroof is standard, and a self-tacking jib is not provided as an option.

The helm station is raised to the side on the port side and also at a clear distance from the winches on the coachroof, where all halyards, sheets and trim lines converge and are operated from a central point. This keeps the access to the flybridge lounge clear both from the outside cockpit and via the side decks. And: during manoeuvres, there is enough space for both the helmsman and the crew to work. According to the shipyard, up to 12 people can sit comfortably in a cosy group around the huge table in the outer cockpit.

Up to six cabins are possible. This is a novelty

The layout concept of the Aventura 45 provides for enormous variety. Layouts with three, four, five or six cabins are possible, plus four bathrooms, each with a shower option. What's more, additional berths for the skipper(s) can be integrated into the bows on request. This range of options is new in the 45-foot hull length class. In addition, depending on the layout version, the owner's cabins aft can also be accessed directly from the cockpit via separate entrances. All possible layout variants and combinations can be seen in the following picture gallery.

The first Aventura 45 is now under construction and is set to celebrate its premiere at the Cannes boat show in September 2023. What's more, the shipyard has already announced a specific price: the boat will cost 591,400 euros, gross including 19% VAT and including the sails.

The Aventura brand is marketed in Germany by the company Cat Sale represented by Klaus Tietze in Bremen.
