The VOYAGE 480 stands as a definitive benchmark in the South African multihull tradition, representing a refined evolution of the earlier VOYAGE 440 and a structural bridge to the larger 500 series. Designed by the renowned naval architecture firm Simonis Voogd, the 480 was engineered to meet the dual demands of the highend British Virgin Islands charter market and the rigorous requirements of private bluewater cruisers. Unlike many contemporary "condomarans" that prioritize interior volume at the expense of sailing characteristics, the 480 maintains a sleek, lowprofile aesthetic that emphasizes a low center of gravity and reduced windage. Built in Cape Town, these vessels are constructed using vacuumbagged sandwich techniques with isophthalic resins, ensuring a hull that is both stiff and resistant to osmotic blistering. The model's success was cemented early in its production run when it was named the "Best Cruising Catamaran" by Cruising World in 2002, a testament to its balanced design and build quality.
