StellarPM Reveals SF2603 Design
​

A new sportfish catamaran design revealed. It is by a company called StellarPM based in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. The SF2603 is a step-up from StellarPM's previous StellarCAT AL2503 and is being developed between the yard and a gamefisherman. "The SF2603 was developed together with an experienced game fisherman who wanted a more stable and comfortable base boat than a traditional monohull sportsfisher could offer. His key requirements were safety, strength, superyacht luxury and the means to cruise between the great fishing grounds off Florida and the Caribbean, Belize and Nova Scotia and cruising areas much further afield when extended cruises with family and friends are in order. We are currently working on the development of a foiling solution which could well take the max speed up to 35kts+," comments Chris Holmes, Principal and Founder of StellarPM.

The vessel is to be developed in Vietnam where both the hull and superstructure construction will take place at a state-of-the-art StellarPM yard in Hai Phong, Vietnam. The assembly and finishing processes will be executed there, while the modular interiors are crafted at the StellarPM factory in Zhuhai, PRC. The vessel is being built to Lloyd's Register +100A1 SSC, Yacht, Mono, G6 while Ginton Naval Architects driving the Naval Architectural aspects of the design.

As this vessel is intended for the sportfisher role it will be outfitted with the necessary equipment to make it a capable platform. It will come with refrigerated fish boxes and live-wells, as well as ice and slush machines. Additionally, bait-filet tables to conduct quick fileting of the fish as well as freezers to keep the filets fresh. Dual Volvo D13-IPS 1200 will be powering this sportfishing catamaran to a top speed of 21-knots ensuring quick passage to and from fishing grounds as needed. The vessel will also have a fuel capacity just under 20,000 LT ensuring it can travel up to 2,400 nautical miles.
