“Caritas” is a superior example of the fantastic Vision 444 modern, innovative performance cruising catamaran with superb fit & finish. Winner of the Cruising World Magazine Boat of the Year award, the Vision 444 is a stand-out of modern multihull design and construction laid out for Bluewater long-term cruising.

The Vision 444 strikes the ideal balance between sailing performance and live aboard comfort. All sails can be easily handled by one person from the safety on the helm, making it possible to confidently sail shorthanded. With her 3 cabin / 3 head Owners Version layout with dedicated workshop, and well thought out maintenance access, Caritas is the perfect world voyaging platform for a couple or family.

As hull #112 ES off the Vision 444 production line, Caritas benefited from all the modifications and tweaks that were incorporated into the design after the earlier hulls had spent some time on the water. She has been sailed from South Africa in early 2024 with her owners who have spared no expense in upgrades and keeping her in Bristol condition. She is in gorgeous, arguably better than new condition, totally dialed in, and ready for a world voyage.

Motor, Performance and Power options

In building the Vision we have selected the optimum components which work seamlessly with each other, delivering both a superbly tuned catamaran yacht and an intuitive and user-friendly environment. It is this insight into what makes a perfect yacht, that makes the Vision so much more than the sum of its parts.

The Vision has the ideal weight-distributed engine placement (beneath the aft cabins), which allows for easier access, more space to work and ample lighting while performing maintenance or repairs at sea. Additionally, the engine position is much safer as there is no chance of it being swept overboard or the engine compartment being swamped by a wave.

Even its electrical system is innovative. The Vision has a state-of-the-art 24v DC system which is as easy to maintain as it is to understand. The lightweight installation has convenient access points throughout the yacht which enables you to identify the source of any electrical problem, in the unlikely event you ever have one. The system is simple and effective, and you don’t need an electrical degree to keep it in perfect order.

Composite Strength

A sense of certainty in any sailing vessel begins with strength. We use an innovative resin-infused, foam-sandwich composite throughout all the components to form the Visions durable hulls. Decks are extra-tough while still maintaining impressive performance due to the weight-saving process. The result is a better, lighter, faster, stronger and safer vessel which will hold its investment value longer. The process allows for a much stronger and lighter boat that improves performance. Optimisation of resin and fibres in the laminate structure increase strength. A highly controlled resin infusion process resulting in a mono-structure, means there is no temperature variation during the construction of the components, so every square inch of the hull is as strong and durable as the next. Powerful vacuums during the infusion processes reduce the ambient moisture in the forming process, creating integrity and quality that allows the sandwich composite construction to bond perfectly. The gel-coat is sprayed on and as a result can be applied in uniformity, giving a superb even finish creating the perfect platform for the processes that follow. Our closed environment methodology eliminates operator error. The resin infusion process sets stronger, far lighter and is longer lasting.
