Shadowcat has unveiled its latest innovation: the 239-foot Catfish catamaran concept, designed in collaboration with Berlin-based Theo Fotiadis Design. This sleek vessel redefines the boundaries between luxury and utility, seamlessly blending the two. More than just a support yacht, Catfish can double as an explorer vessel, offering an unmatched balance of opulence and adventure. It’s equipped to carry a custom 61-foot sportfish, three bespoke tenders, a seven-person Triton submersible, and an EC135 helicopter, all operated from its state-of-the-art pad and hangar.
But what truly sets Catfish apart is the “Mariner’s Den,” a sophisticated lounge featuring a large fold-out balcony, a bar, and a gyroscopic pool table, perfect for unwinding after a day of exploration. According to Superyachtnews, the glass-enclosed submersible garage and various water toys are visible from the lounge through a roll-up door, offering a captivating view and a unique blend of functionality and flair.
For those who value wellness alongside adventure, the yacht comes with a gym, a dedicated spa, and a beach club, providing a sanctuary for relaxation. Accommodating 10 guests and 19 crew, this 2,200 GT vessel also boasts practical amenities like a hospital facility, a decompression chamber, and a bait-and-tackle shop, because sometimes the thrill of the catch is just as enticing as the luxury onboard.
And despite its impressive size, Catfish can still reach a top speed of 21 knots, proving that this catamaran is as powerful as it is versatile, ready to take on any adventure the high seas might offer. More information will be unveiled at this year’s Monaco Yacht Show.
