BBM
BBM is the motorboat version of the BBS, although the shape of her hull is, of course, slightly different. Particular care was taken when designing the layout below decks. The BBM has a cockpit in the bow with direct access to the saloon. The stern cockpit features folding bulwarks to increase deck space enough for a family-size table, with the galley and griddle close by.
VPLP 78
Fruit of an in-depth study driven principally by designer Patrick le Quément, a long-time collaborator with VPLP, this 78’ luxury catamaran (23.95 m) remains in the project stage for the moment. Her future owner can expect exhilarating times at the tiller and superlatively comfortable cruising with a skeleton crew (two crew and eight passengers).
BBS
BBS is a weekend sailer aimed at private owners. Her design is the fruit of a thorough analysis of the future owner’s needs, especially in terms of her layout. VPLP paid particular attention to the details.
Tan 66
Developed in collaboration with a boat dealer in Dubai, the Tan 66 was designed to sail at very high speeds while remaining easy to handle, although production has yet to begin. To be built entirely in carbon fibre for greater velocity, rigidity and power, this innovative catamaran has been optimized (helm stations, mast amidships, roller-furling foresails) so she can reach high speeds safely and with little effort on the part of the crew.
Lagoon 4th generation
This fourth generation of the series, which includes the 52, 39 and 42, was the first to feature the work of designer Patrick le Quément, who has continued to collaborate with VPLP ever since.
L’Atelier des tropiques
The Studio in the Tropics, or studio boat as it was described in a special exhibition at the Quai Branly Museum (13 November 2018–10 February 2019), is the project of Titouan Lamazou, artist and inaugural winner of the Vendée Globe.
Maxi 80 Prince de Bretagne
Lionel Lemonchois wanted a light and manoeuvrable multihull for single-handed sailing, one that was quick, reliable and cut the water cleanly. VPLP came up with a platform based on existing parts recovered from the 60’ ORMA trimaran Sodebo, launched in 2002 for Thomas Coville, such as the beams, the rigging, the appendages and the deck […]
Noah 88 (Kenzo)
Noah 88 was a preliminary project undertaken in collaboration with the former owner of Douce France in a bid to develop a range of motor-catamarans which could maintain a cruising speed of 12–15 knots. The Noah range was designed for comfort and habitability with broad living areas spread over three levels. All three models feature cosy […]
Pescavel
Pescavel is an extension of the work undertaken for the Lokeya, in other words, a 24 m fishing catamaran commissioned by Réunion trollers in the Indian Ocean who wanted to make fuel savings and use more environmentally fishing methods that wouldn’t impact their competitiveness.
Moxie
The specifications for the Moxie 61 were to design a fast, light, reliable and easy to sail cruising catamaran for boat owners looking for performance and style. With her 62’ LOA, 31’6” beam and sleek profile, the Moxie 61 more than lived up to her remit. She is – along with Ciliam – one of the first sailing catamarans to have an aft-of-centre mast, resulting in a more efficient rig.
