The 2018 Mares 47 Outboard Express Catamaran delivers an impressive blend of performance, efficiency, and luxury. Powered by quad Suzuki DF350A duoprop outboards, this foil-assisted power cat reaches 50+ knots and cruises comfortably in the high-30-knot range, with the hydrofoil creating lift for a smoother, more efficient ride through chop.
Despite its generous 15' beam, the Mares 47 fits comfortably in most standard slips and can operate in waters as shallow as two feet, offering excellent versatility for both offshore runs and island hopping.
Designed with entertaining in mind, the spacious salon features a large retractable sunroof, while the aft galley with flip-up window seamlessly connects the interior to the cockpit seating and grill area. Below deck, the boat offers a forward master stateroom with king berth and private head, providing the space and comfort of a much larger yacht.
