LODESTAR is a 2026 HH60 catamaran built in carbon composite with epoxy and Corecell core construction. She is engineered as a high-performance sailing platform rather than a conventional cruising catamaran, with a forward helm and tiller-chair sailing configuration designed for responsive handling under sail while retaining full systems and comfort for extended cruising.
The deck and sailhandling package reflects this performance focus. The yacht carries North 3Di sails including a square-top main, staysail, solent, reacher, and furling gennaker. Curved carbon daggerboards, hydraulic in-boom mainsheet and cunningham, Harken 48V electric winches with carbon tops, Rigging Projects hardware, and titanium fasteners and padeye upgrades throughout provide the control and durability required for serious sailing. Both tiller chairs include integrated sail controls and Zeus3S navigation displays. Cap shroud load sensors monitor rig tension.
The four-cabin interior comprises a three-quarter owner's suite in one hull plus a dedicated office space. Two heads serve the accommodation. Power comes from two Yanmar 80-horsepower diesels integrated into an EcoDive parallel hybrid system paired with a 57.6-kilowatt-hour lithium battery bank, 8-kilowatt inverter, and dual electric drive capability. Solar generation includes a 4,984-watt array on the coachroof and 976 watts on the davit. A Schenker Zen Twin 200 watermaker supports extended voyaging. Air conditioning provides 63,000 BTU of reverse-cycle cooling. The yacht carries an OC400 Carbon tender and is equipped with dockmate remote docking, FLIR thermal imaging, forward-looking depth sounder, dual autopilots, and comprehensive B&G navigation and systems electronics. Interior amenities include electric BBQ, wet bar with drink fridge and icemaker, washer-dryer, projector system, and extensive shade package.
