Wider Yachts in Italy says construction is proceeding on schedule for Hull No. 1 of the WiderCat 92, which is expected to launch this summer and make its public debut at the Cannes Yachting Festival in September.
The WiderCat 92 will be the flagship of the builder’s hybrid propulsion catamaran range. It’s the first of five hulls that Wider has already sold.
Design on the WiderCat 92 is by Luca Dini Design & Architecture in partnership with Centro Stile Wider.
The yacht incorporates the most recent version of the Serial Hybrid Propulsion System that Wider introduced in 2015. The system includes generators and solar panels, and is managed via the Wider Power Management System. If the generator is engaged, the rpm is evened out, optimizing consumption. Any unused power recharges the battery pack. A fully electric mode is available for silent cruising.
When is the 2023 Cannes Yachting Festival, where the WiderCat 92 will debut? The boat show is scheduled to run Sept. 12-17 in France.
