What this video covers

The Voyage Maxim 380 is a 38-foot catamaran with an extended transom that provides a waterline length exceeding 40 feet.0:04 The vessel features an 1800-watt solar array mounted on a custom rack, four 450-watt panels, and a rainwater catchment system integrated into the hardtop.0:32 Electrical systems include 600 amp-hours of lithium batteries, two Victron 150/70 charge controllers, and multiple inverters to manage 230V, 110V, and Starlink power requirements.12:16 The boat is powered by twin 30-horsepower Yanmar engines, which are accessible from inside the cabins, avoiding the common issue of external hatch leaks and corrosion.8:40 The owner notes that the balsa-core construction requires vigilance against water intrusion and potential delamination.19:27 While the boat performs well at 7–8 knots in decent wind, the owner plans to install a bowsprit and a light-air sail to improve downwind performance.19:09 The interior layout includes a three-cabin owner’s version, a dual-fridge/freezer setup, and a galley designed for a couple.8:03 The owner identifies 6'1" as the maximum comfortable height for the interior living spaces.10:33
