Atlantic 72
The ATLANTIC 72 is a fast and comfortable world cruiser.
New Build Opportunity
With sailing performance similar to racing monohulls like a Volvo 70 in stronger winds, the Atlantic 72 Penmanship and her sister A72 Skylark let your family and friends sail long distance in luxury. On a recent Atlantic crossing the crew reports, “we sailed consistently for 16 to 22 kts for many hours at a time”.
You can't do that in today's crop of production catamarans.
Four foot draft with boards up allows exploration where many boats can't go.
100% epoxy/carbon fiber construction provides exceptional strength at very low weight. Ample power from twin 110 HP engines and substantial tankage yields excellent speed and great range under power.
The interior layout is flexible and can be configured to suit any specific needs. Standard arrangement includes four cabins with double berths (king and queen size) and two cabins each with two single berths.
Sailing Performance
For this I will defer to Alan Weeks skipper of the Atlantic 72 “SKYLARK”. Alan has been at the helm for nearly 4 years and has sailed her over 21,000 miles.
"Skylark is a true world voyager that routinely covers 300 plus miles a day. Using the right sail plan she sails at the speed of the wind, remarkable for such a big boat. With 8 knots of wind going to weather we're doing 8 knots of boat speed.
In passage making speeds of 12 to 16 knots is the norm. With enough wind, 14 to 20 kts of boatspeed is common. During one passage we kept the speed between 20 and 25 for about 5 hours straight. All of this is achieved easily and safely with 2 crew just as it is on the A57."
Capable, comfortable, safe and easy to sail- what more can you ask for?
