Coming soon: M37 Power Cat

M37 Power Cat

June 26, 2025

The European M37 power catamaran is heading our way. Built in Poland by Makai the boat now has a US dealer and eyes on this market.

M37 Power Cat

The M37 is quite a looker and delivers power catamaran fuel-efficiency and an unprecedented helming experience. It features two distinct and refined cabin spaces, with layouts suitable for couples cruising and families alike, and an enormous deck space fit to entertain 12.

Makai M37

This is a performance cruiser: up to combined 740 horsepower, along with a new and unique super low-drag catamaran design, enables a 38-knot top speed. Propellers are spaced farther apart than on a monohull – making them more efficient and providing greater twisting force when manoeuvring in tight spaces. Add in joystick control and this boat is simple to drive, and even more simple to dock.

M37 Power Cat

The M37 has a full standing headroom in two beautiful staterooms. Both have double beds, and for families there’s even the option of a double bed with additional singles for extra kids and guests. Each cabin has its own shower, sink and electric flush toilet.

Nimbus 365 Coupe – A real long-stay cruising boat for exploring

By Andy Adams

There is no shortage of fun and exciting new boat designs hitting the market, but for the last few years these have been mainly outboard-powered day boats. Some are day cruisers; some are centre console fishing boats or designed for tow sports. A new live-aboard cabin boat has become a rare item these days.

So when I heard that Pride Marine in Orillia, Ontario, had a Nimbus 365 Coupe in the water, I jumped at the chance to get out on it.

Tahiti—Updates from Paradise

By Zuzana Prochaska

I’ve been to Tahiti seven times—six on charter and once as crew for a couple of yachties. Over the 25 years that I’ve been visiting, it’s changed dramatically. Yet, inexplicably, it has also stayed the same.

Lounging on the flybridge of our Sunsail 454, I had time to think about this dichotomy as I toasted the nighttime skies of Bora Bora and specifically the Southern Cross, a constellation that never fails to hypnotize. As the Crosby, Stills & Nash (1982) tune reminds us:

…you understand now why you came this way.
