About the DAZCAT 1295
Max load: 7500 kg / 16,535 lbs.
The Dazcat 1295 is a high-performance catamaran designed by Darren Newton and built by The Multihull Centre (UK) in 2017. With a production run of ? hulls, this 42.49 ft LOA vessel represents a modern, lightweight cruising option.
- Best for:
- This boat suits active coastal cruisers and short-handed sailors who prioritize speed and ease of handling, as evidenced by the prevalence of fractional sloop rigs and lightweight displacement.
- Bluewater capability:
- With a low capsize ratio of 3.77 and a displacement of 12125.42 lb, the hull form suggests good stability, though its lightweight nature and variable keel configuration require careful assessment for heavy offshore conditions.
- Comparables:
- Comparable to other modern performance catamarans like the Lagoon 42 or Fountaine-Pajot Elba 45, the Dazcat 1295 offers similar beam (21.65 ft) and fractional rigging for efficient upwind performance.
