PUNCH 1500 LC Year 2003
Designed by the Mortain-Mavrikios agency and built by Multicap Caraïbes in epoxy-plywood, this Punch 1500 is the perfect suited ship to travel around the world. She was designed for her first and only owner, with simple, efficient and tailor made inside fittings, including a real piano in the saloon. Strong epoxy-plywood construction, height under the central cell, exceptionnal headroom and space for a family, everything was gathered to travel safe and free. Water and energy self sufficient, you will enjoy the calm moorings. The first and only owners almost turned around the world and stopped in Malaysia.
Owner's words
We were working a lot, with a lot of stress, our first child was young, so we decided in 2002 to go and sail around the world during a few years. We chose a multihull. We found that the Punch were strong and simple, so we lauched the construction of ours at the Multicap Caraïbes yard in Martinique. They accepted to place a real piano in the saloon, as we asked them. Then, we spent 8 exceptionnal years, discovering and exploring the world, on a really well built matters-less boat.
