Owner Experience Review

As a large catamaran from YAPLUKA, the85 Double Deckis typically positioned for luxury owner‑family cruising and charter service. The deck‑level owner’s cabin with a forward panorama and a saloon designed for 360° visibility set the tone for comfort‑first living. A very wide beam underpins expansive interior and exterior lounges, a flybridge, and en‑suite cabins for guests and crew. Published design and brokerage information also reference CE Cat A and large tanks, suggesting suitability for extended passages.

On the water, the broad platform and long waterline translate to reassuring stability at anchor and under way, with reduced roll compared to monohulls. With roughly 395 m² of upwind sail area against a light displacement around 75 t, expectations should be for moderate rather than high‑octane sailing performance, and the listed twin 66 cv auxiliaries suggest modest motoring power for the size.

Prospective buyers should be aware that the original shipyard closed in March 2009, and the designer notes the build was later taken over abroad—factors that can complicate documentation and long‑term support. Detailed owner reports specific to the 85 Double Deckare scarce in public forums, so a thorough pre‑purchase survey of structure, tanks, and onboard systems is prudent. Brokers commonly reference Yanmar inboards, and maintenance should follow typical Yanmar service items, with no model‑specific failure patterns surfaced in available listings.

Pros and Cons

• Deck‑level owner’s suite with panoramic forward view and a saloon offering 360° visibility.
• Wide beam delivers a stable multihull platform and expansive living spaces, including flybridge and large decks.
• Versatile use case: owner‑family cruising, charter layouts, and extended passages suggested by CE Cat A and large tanks.
• Sailing performance is likely moderate, and the twin 66 cv auxiliaries indicate modest motoring power for the displacement.
• Original shipyard closure in 2009 and subsequent takeover can affect build documentation and long‑term support.
• Scarcity of detailed owner reports means a comprehensive pre‑purchase survey of structure, tanks, and systems is essential.
