Description
PRELIMINARY LISTING
The renowned British multihull designer Nigel Irens was tapped to draw the third generation of the Gunboat series which were built at what is now the HH Catamarans factory between 2012 - 2018. Plenty has been said and written about the best-in-class performance, quality, durability, and aesthetics of the Gunboats. DEFIANCE is arguably the most updated and most refined GB60 for cruising, with her custom transom extensions, modernized hybrid-propulsion system and operator-friendly systems and ergonomics. DEFIANCE has only had two owners and current captain/manager has been involved with the program for ~8 years. She has benefited from millions of dollars’ worth of upgrades over the past few years, most notably a refit in 2021 and another comprehensive yard period on ‘25/’26. DEFIANCE is now presented for sale in top shape for her next owner.
