Overview
About this vessel
Custom-Built Power Catamaran Flying Ray
Welcome aboard the Flying Ray, a singular, custom-designed power catamaran purpose-built for long-distance offshore travel and commercial utility. Crafted for demanding marine use, this vessel blends rugged construction, high-speed capability, generous passenger capacity, and turn-key readiness—making it a perfect platform for charter ventures, offshore transportation, or private long-range cruising.
Construction & Hull Engineering
The Flying Ray is constructed entirely of Nida-Core composite with fiberglass laminate, ensuring there is zero wood in the structure. This advanced composite architecture delivers exceptional strength-to-weight ratios, outstanding durability, and resistance to rot, swell, or structural fatigue. The design enhances longevity and reliability, even under continual commercial operation.
Her hull is based on a modified V configuration derived from the Cigarette Racing mold, well known for its efficiency in rough seas. This hull form promotes hydrodynamic performance, delivering a stable, smooth ride and excellent fuel economy in both calm and demanding waters.
Propulsion & Systems
The Flying Ray is powered by twin MAN diesel engines—newly installed and professionally fitted—delivering reliable, fuel-efficient performance with low operating costs per nautical mile. In addition, she includes a nearly new Phasor diesel generator rated at 8.5 kilowatts, showing just 220 hours, thus assuring dependable onboard electrical power for both operation and guest comfort. Included with the vessel are two spare MAN engines, providing invaluable redundancy and operational security.
Performance Capabilities
The Flying Ray excels in every measure of offshore performance. Her racing-derived hull and diesel propulsion provide outstanding efficiency at cruising speed, responsive handling in a range of sea conditions, and the capability to cover long distances quickly. Whether your mission is cross-border transport, high-speed ferry service, adventure cruising, or practical charter work, this vessel delivers the performance and stability needed for confident operations.
Passenger Experience & Layout Flexibility
The layout emphasizes comfort and accessibility for large groups. Wide walkways and an open-plan main deck support easy boarding and movement. Upper deck capacity and shaded seating configurations facilitate customization for events, tours, or sightseeing. Forward viewing areas are ideal for wildlife excursions, photography, or relaxation. The deck can be quickly adapted to include a bar, galley, entertainment center, or open event space. Although not styled as a luxury yacht, her generous footprint and versatility make the Flying Ray an excellent candidate for semi-luxury conversion or event-centric fit-outs.
Utility & Adaptability
Beyond tourism and charter, the Flying Ray supports a wide range of specialized operations: logistics and cargo transport, disaster relief and medical evacuation missions, floating classrooms or research platforms, marina shuttles or tenders for large yacht events, and flexible private-commercial hybrid conversions. Her efficient hull, reliable engine room, and spacious layout ensure she can transition gracefully into any mission-driven role.
Currently docked in the Caribbean, the Flying Ray is available for in-person viewing and sea trials by appointment. Fully documented and vessel history available on request.
