Four Winns ventures into catamarans with the new TH36
Four Winns has entered a new segment with the launch of the Four Winns TH36, an 11-meter catamaran powered by two outboard engines of up to 350 HP each. This move marks the American shipyard’s, owned by the French Beneteau Group, debut in the world of motor multihulls.
With over 50 years of experience in day cruisers and open boats, the Michigan-based shipyard from Cadillac, owned by Beneteau, is branching into cruising with a new line of vessels, of which the Four Winns TH36 is the first model.
It measures 11 meters in length and 3.66 meters in width, offering a sporty character in a cabin-equipped catamaran format, emphasizing onboard space and practicality.
One standout feature of this multihull is its width, which is not significantly greater than that of a monohull of similar size, ensuring no major complications regarding marina berthing space.
It also benefits from the hydrodynamics of the two hulls, which allow for greater speed with reduced fuel consumption, thanks to the lower resistance of the wetted surface on the water.
The Four Winns TH36 can accommodate up to 15 people, four of whom can stay overnight, and is powered by two outboard engines, each with a power range from 300 to 350 hp.
Sophisticated design on the Four Winns TH36 to provide ample onboard space, even at night
For the design of this 11-meter catamaran, the shipyard entrusted specialist Marc Lombard with developing the multihull structure and the Italian studio Garroni Design for the aesthetics, inspired by Four Winns' HD (Hybrid Deck) line of boats.
The sleek upper profile closely resembles the look of speedboats, while the forward cockpit on the deck recalls the design of bowriders.
The result is a catamaran with a pure sporty design that is also comfortable for everyone. Space on board is plentiful: the forward cockpit alone can accommodate six people, while the rest of the open-space deck, largely sheltered by a hardtop, is well-organized.
Behind the helm station, in a very spacious cockpit, there are three sofas, including two corner dinettes, as well as a large kitchen unit.
In addition to the galley, there's also a barbecue on this 11-meter catamaran.
The kitchen area is fully equipped, featuring various compartments for storing items and placing the refrigerator, as well as the sink and stovetop.
Among the most intriguing optional features is a pure “American-style” barbecue. After all, the ample space on board and the open-air layout of the Four Winns TH36 make it perfect for hosting large barbecues.
Two cabins, four berths like a true cruiser for this 11-Meter multihull
Below deck, the use of two hulls has allowed for the creation of two cabins, each featuring twin beds, wardrobes, windows with curtains, and a bathroom equipped with a separate shower.
In addition to the below-deck space, the impressive privacy of the two cabins is noteworthy, thanks to their placement in separate hulls.
600 or 700 hp total for the two outboard engines
Designed for navigation both at sea and on lakes, the new Four Winns TH36 is equipped with two outboard engines.
Depending on the performance goals of each owner, you can choose between two 300 HP outboards from Mercury or Yamaha, or opt for maximum available power with a pair of 350 HP engines.
All powertrains are equipped with a joystick, allowing for precise and effortless control of the boat during maneuvers.
