The drawing office at the Catana shipyard aims to improve performance on an ongoing basis. The shipyard has developed an incredible number of innovations over the last 26 years. If we look at some of the most significant of these, the infusion construction procedure is particularly important insofar as it greatly optimises boat weight. The Twaron Impact process significantly improves the rigidity and stability of the hulls, whilst the invention of the legendary daggerboards has enabled Catana to create the first catamarans that perform well when facing the wind. In recent years, the development of carbon fibre has also increased the speed of Catana catamarans: the fastest sailing boats in the world that can be sailed by non-professional sailors. Whilst we focus systematically on performance, our research is always accompanied by extremely high standards of comfort and safety.
