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.

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.

The Erie Canal – An Extraordinary Waterway

By Mark Stevens

As I shift our chartered canal boat into neutral, I’m soothed by the soundtrack of bird calls, the occasional plaintive horn of a distant train and the hum of our engine.

I reach for the VHF to radio the lockmaster in charge of Erie Canal’s Lock 32 dead ahead. Our boat spins gently in the current like a maple key in a mud puddle.

“This is Onondaga,” I say. “Headed westbound and requesting passage.”
