Hull 01, 'Tribute' was commissioned in Florida in May, and recently completed its first offshore passage from Ft. Lauderdale to Annapolis. Hull 02, 'Off-Piste' departed Xiamen this week and will arrive in Baltimore in early August. Both boats are owned by American couples - owner/operators who plan to live aboard and cruise full time.

Designed by California-based naval architects Morrelli & Melvin, the new HH50 provides serious sailors with a quick, capable, robust platform for short-handed, blue water cruising. Twin aft helms with sail controls led aft allow for ease of handling. Galley-up configuration with ample salon seating allows for comfortable deck-level living and entertaining. Three or four staterooms with ensuite heads and ample storage ensure comfort and privacy for up to eight. Top of the line electronics and equipment, bespoke interiors, and exceptional finish quality consistent with earlier HH offerings are found throughout.100% carbon construction, carbon mast and rigging, and advanced engineering allow the HH50 to handle a considerable payload while maintaining unparalleled performance and safety parameters. During sea trials in Fort Lauderdale HH5001 routinely achieved 10+ knots in light and variable breeze. Additional performance metrics will be available after further trials are conducted in Annapolis later this week.

HH5001 and HH5002 will spend the remainder of the Summer and Fall cruising the Chesapeake Bay and New England coast. Private showings are available by appointment, and plans for a media event are being developed. Please contact sales@hhcatamarans.com for additional information.
