This New 80-Foot Pink Catamaran Might Give Barbie’s ‘Vette a Run for Its Money

VisionF’s latest fleet member is pretty in pink.

The 80-footer, which is the fourth and final hull in the Turkish yard’s successful VisionF 80 series, features a rosy hull and superstructure that guarantees it will stand out on the high seas.

“I am very happy to take part even at the delivery stage of this project, she is unique in many ways,” Ali Tanir, general manager of VisionF Yachts, said in a statement.

The newcomer is the antithesis of the third, all-black hull in the series. It was built for an international tech entrepreneur, who requested the exterior of the aluminum catarman be painted in a custom pink hue. Thurstan Design in London is responsible for the color palette and the majority of design details.

Aside from the eye-catching paintwork, the cat has pretty much the same layout as its predecessors. The beam of 32 feet ensures plenty of deck space inside and out, too. The living quarters include a sprawling main salon of nearly 600 square feet, a large light-filled galley on the lower deck, and four luxurious suites that can accommodate eight guests.

The decor was, again, tailored to the owner’s personal tastes and is characterized by pops of pink. The fixed furniture was produced in-house by VisionF, though there are also pieces by leading designer labels such as Rove Concepts, Moro, Crate & Barrel, Kravet, Paola Lenti, and Farrow & Ball.

The exterior decks are geared toward alfresco entertaining. The flybridge, for instance, doubles as a fantastic party space with space for either sundowners or sunbathing. It is also home to an exterior helm station. Wide, teak-clad steps lead down to a hydraulic stern platform that can be lowered for easy access to the water or raised to store the Williams jet tender.

In terms of propulsion, the multihull is equipped with twin Volvo Penta IPS 1050 drives that give it a maximum speed of 18 knots and a range of over 1,800 nautical miles. It also has a modest draft of just 2.6 feet, meaning that is well-suited to cruising shallow waters.

It sounds like this cat isn’t just pretty, but powerful and precise, too.
