Designed by architects Axel De Beaufort and Guillaume Verdier, who masterfully designed both exteriors and interiors, Art Explorer is the largest aluminium sailing catamaran in the world.
Measuring 47 meters in length with an impressive 17.30-meter beam and a towering 55-meter carbon mast, Art Explorer is a unique and avant-garde project. A true floating museum, the first and only of its kind, designed to embark on a two-year global journey, showcasing immersive artistic experiences and a powerful message of environmental sustainability.
65 sqm of solar panels have been installed on the deckhouse roof, capable of generating up to 12 kW instantaneously, with a total capacity of over 200 kW per day. This system is supported by a lithium battery bank, ensuring zero-emission power generation for over six hours, even under full on board load.
The catamaran is certified with a “green” class notation and is equipped with catalytic filters to reduce emissions and particulates from exhaust gases. Additionally, all maneuvers in ports and protected areas will be carried out in full electric mode.
Thanks to its powerful, fully automated sailing plan, which can be managed by a single person, the catamaran can sail at 10 knots even in very light wind conditions.
