2024 Wave Wave60

The Wave60 is a 60-foot composite catamaran built with a hybrid propulsion system uncommon in its class. Twin Volvo Penta diesel engines paired with dual 18 kW electric motors deliver flexible power across cruising modes, with a cruising speed of 8 knots and maximum speed of 10 knots. A 360-volt lithium battery bank supports full overnight hotel loads including air conditioning, reducing reliance on generators and enabling near-silent anchoring. Solar panels integrated into the hardtop and forward lounge work alongside the hybrid system for energy independence.

The hull employs PVC foam core sandwich construction with carbon fiber reinforcement and an aluminum crossbeam, resulting in a lightweight yet rigid structure rated for ocean passage. The boat carries 2 × 477-liter fuel tanks, 2 × 400-liter water capacity, and a high-output watermaker at 440 liters per hour with UV filtration. A bow thruster with dedicated batteries, Variprop feathering propellers, and dual hydraulic rudders support responsive handling. Notable navigation equipment includes a Garmin premium suite with 12-inch chartplotter, autopilot, and mobile monitoring via ActiveCaptain.

Accommodations consist of four cabins and four heads arranged in a two-master configuration, with a full galley featuring induction cooktop, oven, dishwasher, and refrigeration. Climate control spans 90,000 BTU air conditioning across 10 zones. The interior features modern European styling with a 50-inch television and soundbar in the main cabin, complemented by a separate flybridge cinema system. Deck layout emphasizes space with dual trampolines, Flexiteek flooring, an electric swim platform with tender lift, and a Rocna Vulcan anchor system with 2500-watt windlass.

The design carries CE Category A (Ocean) compliance and a comprehensive offshore safety package including life raft, EPIRB, and fire systems. Onboard water and energy systems are sized for extended cruising autonomy.
