2011 Maine Cat P47

The 2011 Maine Cat P47 is a 47-foot fiberglass catamaran built for extended cruising with shallow-draft capability and protected propellers and rudders. Twin Volvo Penta D3-220 diesel engines produce 440 horsepower and deliver a cruising speed of 17 knots with a maximum speed of 23 knots. The efficient hull design achieves ranges of 1,500 nautical miles at 6 knots, 1,100 miles at 8 knots, and 500 miles at 18 knots on 400 gallons of fuel.

The boat is comprehensively equipped for self-sufficient cruising. Solar generation consists of 640 watts across four 160-watt panels. Power storage comes from three Epoch 24-volt LiFePo4 lithium batteries with 690 amp-hours of capacity, installed in 2025. A Spectra Catalina 340z water maker produces 14 gallons per hour and was rebuilt in 2025. The Northern Lights 6-kilowatt generator operates within a sound enclosure with vibration isolation mounts. A Steelhead Marine WD600 davit supports an AB Alumina 10 ALX tender with Sunbrella cover. The boat carries two kayaks and two paddle boards on the roof.

The engines show 2,770 hours of operation, while the generator has 931 hours. The water maker was rebuilt in 2025. The lithium battery bank and tender are recent additions.
