Windelo Catamaran and Just Catamarans announce a strategic partnership for USA Sales & Services

by Windelo catamaran 19 Dec 2023 15:12 GMT

Windelo Catamaran, a French shipyard building eco-advanced performance catamarans, and Just Catamarans, today announced their partnership in response to the US market's demand for (more) environmentally friendly performance multihulls.

Just Catamarans will take a strategic role in the growth of Windelo Catamaran in the US market through their expertise in the performance cruising segment. This new partnership will be launched at the International Miami Boat Show by presenting the New Windelo 50 Yachting as a US premiere, building upon the strong development of the brand from its European base thus far.

Designed in collaboration with the architects Christophe Barreau and Frédéric Neuman and designer Charlotte Schiffer, the New Windelo 50 is a fast blue-water cruising catamaran featuring an electric propulsion system that includes two electric engines and a pioneering hull construction method that utilizes volcanic basalt laminates, which are a more sustainable alternative to traditional fiberglass matting.

"Our entire team looks forward to working with Windelo," says Thomas Chambers, President of Just Catamarans Sales. "Representing a bespoke brand of performance multihulls that focuses more on sustainability and introducing electric-hybrid propulsion in this market is exciting for us and our clients."

"We are absolutely delighted to welcome Just Catamarans aboard the Windelo family, " underlines Gautier Kauffmann, Windelo's Founder. "The reputation of Just Cats in the US and their expertise in developing and supporting high-end-performance cruising multihulls will be an undeniable strength for the development of Windelo on the US market. Just Catamarans will be a key partner to the service footprint for all our clients visiting the US & Bahamas with a Windelo". Whilst Just Catamarans will boost the visibility and service of our brand in the territory, we understand how important it is for our customers to maintain direct contact with the shipyard throughout the lifecycle of their boat. This is why, together with Thomas' team, we have set up a partnership that adds up our teams in a joint approach to Sales & Servicing of our owners' catamarans."
