Voyage 440
Description
The Voyage 440 (often misspelled or referred to as Voyager 440) is a popular performance cruising catamaran designed by Alexander Simonis (Simonis Voogd Design) and built by Voyage Yachts in Cape Town, South Africa, from 2001 to approximately 2004. It won Cruising World Boat of the Year (Best Cruising Multihull and Overall) in 2002 for its blend of performance, safety, and comfort. The boat was produced in limited numbers (a few dozen hulls) as a bluewater-capable cruiser with generous living space, making it a favorite for charter fleets and private owners. Many examples remain actively cruised today, especially in the Caribbean, Florida, and the Bahamas.
