The Dookyu Crown 11.6m FRP Catamaran Passenger Boat is a commercial-grade twin-hull vessel developed for operators who need reliable, comfortable passenger capacity on coastal and island routes. With a length overall of 11.60 m and a generous 4.80 m beam, the catamaran platform delivers the wide, stable deck that passenger service demands, while twin HONDA 150 VTEC outboard engines provide a 22-knot cruise with the redundancy and easy maintenance of outboard propulsion.
The layout is built around passenger comfort and operational safety. Seating accommodates up to twelve passengers, the salon offers shelter from sun and spray, and a fully equipped galley, integrated bathroom and two cabin units support longer working days and crew rest. Navigation and communication equipment includes a GARMIN radar, VHF, GPS, echo sounder, electronic chart system and illuminated compass, and the vessel is designed and submitted to Class IV requirements. Safety equipment is comprehensive, from twelve adult life jackets and life rings with lights to dry-powder and CO2 extinguishers, bilge alarm panels and an oil-water separator.
For operators, the catamaran configuration also translates into direct commercial benefits: lower resistance and therefore lower fuel consumption per passenger, reduced rolling motion that keeps passengers comfortable in choppy conditions, and a shallow 0.694 m design draft for easier access to small harbours and beach landings. Seating arrangement, interior fit-out, signage and equipment can all be specified to the route profile.
12-passenger commercial capacity: Wide 4.80 m catamaran beam creates stable deck area and seating for up to twelve passengers.
Twin HONDA 150 VTEC propulsion: 22-knot cruise with outboard redundancy and simplified servicing.
Passenger comfort in waves: Twin-hull form reduces rolling motion, keeping passengers comfortable in choppy water.
Class IV submitted design: Designed and submitted to Class IV requirements, with comprehensive safety equipment including 12 life jackets, life rings with lights and CO2/dry-powder extinguishers.
Complete navigation suite: GARMIN radar, VHF, GPS, echo sounder, electronic chart system and illuminated compass.
Operator-focused economics: Lower fuel burn per passenger, shallow 0.694 m draft for small harbours, and customisable seating layout.

Q: How many passengers can it carry, and what is the design class?
A: The vessel carries up to 12 passengers and is designed and submitted to Class IV requirements, with safety equipment sized for the full passenger complement.
Q: Why choose a catamaran for passenger service?
A: Twin hulls provide significantly greater initial stability and reduced rolling compared with a monohull of similar length, giving passengers a more comfortable ride, while wider deck area improves circulation and boarding safety.
