Gunboat 68
A true reference in the world of cruising catamarans, the Gunboat range was acquired by Outremer in 2017 and swiftly augmented with the Gunboat 68. The first two 68s were delivered in late 2018–early 2019 to American owners who were looking for the best in racing-cruising catamarans.
Befoil
Befoil is the first foiling catamaran for beginners and sailing schools. The design aims to make foiling easier and safer for everyone.
Komorebi 138
Currently in the preliminary study phase, the Komorebi 138 derives from the Komorebi 282, a concept boat for scientific cruises. VPLP pushed the envelope even further by scaling her down into a luxury yacht for private use.
EMC Mono
This project is a monohull version of the EMC Multi, a cargo and passenger trimaran developed under the aegis of Watever, an NGO founded by Marc Van Peteghem and Yves Marre, to provide services between islands in the Pacific. The EMC vessels are of similar length (89 m Mono, 80 m Multi) and both carry […]
EMC Multi
Developed under the aegis of Watever, an NGO founded by Marc Van Peteghem and Yves Marre, the EMC Multi is a proposal for the future of merchant shipping. In sum, an 80 m trimaran with a 17 m beam and hybrid propulsion which is reliable and economic, and contributes little to atmospheric pollution. This first […]
Banque Populaire IX
Built two years after the first version of Macif 100 and skippered by Armel Le Cléac’h, Banque Populaire IX is much, much more of a foiler than François Gabart’s initial Ultim.
Serenity
Serenity is a concept developed by VPLP for an owner who wanted a boat powered by a wingsail and solar panels. His project was to live aboard and sail leisurely round the world with his family.
Outremer 7X
Buoyed by the success of the 5X, Outremer and VPLP decided to collaborate anew in 2017 to produce the Outremer 7X, the largest cruising boat ever built at the yard in La Grande Motte. The DNA of the Outremer series – performance and ocean cruising – is even more present in this 70’ catamaran because she was designed to carry a crew and be very light, making her very competitive.
Figaro 3
After a call for tenders, the job of designing the third generation of Figaro Beneteau boats was entrusted to VPLP, whose winning bid focused on creating “a gateway to ocean racing”. Figaro 3 adheres faithfully to the VPLP motto of lightness and power.
Komorebi 200 – Wingsails Exploration Trimaran
Deriving from the project to build a hybrid cruising catamaran which VPLP unveiled in 2015, this Komorebi 200 is designed to be an exploration ship for the scientific community. The principles are the same: broad spaces which make the most of natural light and ventilation, and which can accommodate up to twenty-four scientists, fifteen crew members and all the devices regularly used in marine research.
