The popular Mahé 36 Evolution is arguably the best value entry level catamaran on the world market. With a host of technological and design innovations, the Mahe 36 Evolution makes catamaran sailing accessible to new clients on a reasonable budget while still offering the superior performance and construction qualities commonly found in larger and more prestigious catamarans.
The Mahé 36 Evolution was designed to meet three stringent objectives: to be affordable while offering excellent value for money, be ergonomic and comfortable, and lastly to possess outstanding sea performance with centralised handling.
With a sheltered open-plan cockpit, a clean and uncluttered deck layout, rigid cockpit bimini plus a raised helm station boasting 360-degree vision with centralised commands, the Mahé 36 Evolution’s innovative exterior design complements its outstanding performance.
The spacious saloon measures 15m2 (161.46ft2) and affords excellent headroom (1.95m), ample storage and unrivalled comfort. The catamaran has a spacious and practical galley, additional refrigeration, and superb ventilation and natural lighting in all interior living areas.
The Mahé 36 Evolution is available in two versions to satisfy the most demanding requirements of individuals and charter operators. The two-cabin version features two private suites with a door at the bottom of the companionways as well as two bathrooms. The three-cabin version features two double cabins and an exclusive Owner’s Suite.
