The Max Cruise 44 SC is a performance-oriented cruising catamaran that represents a modern shift toward lightweight, semi-custom multihulls capable of high daily averages without sacrificing liveability. Built by Max Cruise Marine in Vietnam, the 44 SC was designed to fill a niche for sailors who find production "condo-marans" too sluggish and high-end carbon racers too spartan or expensive. The hull is constructed using vacuum-infused vinylester resin with a foam core, further reinforced with aramid and Kevlar in high-load areas and below the waterline to ensure structural rigidity at a remarkably low lightship displacement of approximately 17,000 lbs (7.7 tonnes). This model has since evolved into the Max Cruise 45 SC, which added a foot of length to the transoms to provide additional buoyancy for blue-water payloads.
