TheOceanwalker S60 does not just sail, but aspires to become a true floating residence. The new multihull comes to market with an eye-catching exterior profile and on-board technology designed for those seeking silence and efficiency, without sacrificing the generous volumes typical of catamarans. From the design of the exterior lines to the technological heart of the engine room, here is what makes the S60 a model to keep an eye on.

A private island by the sea

The first impact with the S60 is dominated by an eye-catching silhouette, characterized by sleek lines and large windows that lighten the perception of volumes. The exterior spaces are designed to maximize open-air living; the flybridge is a true elevated oasis, with 360-degree views of what lies around the C-shaped settee and exterior helm station. In the bow is arranged a large area dedicated to sun lovers, with generous space and comfortable sofas for lounging. Let’s talk about the stern: the hydraulic swim platform is not just for launching the tender, it extends effortlessly to create a private beach above the water, ideal for launching water toys or just enjoying the sea.

Interior: light and fluidity

Stepping aboard, the Oceanwalker S60 reveals its nature as a “refined retreat.” The spacious salon takes advantage of a contemporary design in which natural light takes center stage, thanks to the panoramic windows that surround the space. The layout is designed to ensure a continuous flow between the living room, dining area and kitchen, encouraging conviviality. Quality finishes and furnishings enhance livability. As for the sleeping area, the S60 offers great flexibility with two possible configurations: a 3-cabin layout (ideal for private owners who want a larger suite) and a 4-cabin layout (perfect for charter or large families). All cabins have en-suite bathrooms, with the additional option of a service bathroom in the main salon.

“Revolution” edition: hybrid and solar heart

The real quantum leap is found “under the hood,” with the S60 Revolution edition. This model adopts a state-of-the-art hybrid propulsion system that integrates electric and diesel power, combined with a displacement hull for maximum efficiency. Energy management is the strong point of this version, as solar panels installed on the roof and flybridge generate up to 8 kW of power. The energy stored during the day is enough to power air conditioning in all guest cabins throughout the night, without the need to turn on generators (so-called silent night mode). An 80 kWh battery pack also supports refrigeration and all on-board appliances, ensuring zero-emission “home” comfort in the roadstead.

Whether envisioned as a private luxury retreat or as a vessel destined for the charter market, the Oceanwalker S60 promises to adapt to the owner’s needs. The combination of modular space and power autonomy makes it an ideal platform for both elegant parties and long cruises in total privacy.
