Catana has introduced the Ocean Class², or OC², as the sixth generation of its performance-cruising catamaran line. The updated model grows directly from owner, skipper and shipyard feedback accumulated over thousands of nautical miles.
Changes include revised interior ergonomics, a deeper saloon seat, a reworked galley and options intended to simplify long-distance living. Catana says the core carbon-infused construction and performance-oriented sail plan remain central to the platform.
Why this matters in the luxury-yacht market
The significance of the OC² lies in the builder treating a production model as an evolving generation rather than discarding the proven Ocean Class concept. That approach allows engineering and owner-use lessons to be incorporated without changing the yacht’s basic mission.
Blue-water catamaran buyers tend to scrutinise systems, redundancy and ease of handling as closely as interior styling. Catana’s update therefore focuses heavily on the practical details that emerge after prolonged liveaboard and offshore use.
What comes next
The OC² is now entering a new phase of demonstrations and owner deliveries. Its real measure will be how the refinements translate into passagemaking, maintenance and everyday life at anchor.
